Happy Harvest: Give Thanks

givethanks

Hello!  I’m back today with another sample from Happy Harvest, exclusively available at IHP!  For today’s card I used SC246

I took one of the pumpkin toppers and I slightly bent it on my block so that it curved along the large circle Nestie.  I love bending my clear stamps to make them do different things.  This one didn’t take very much manipulation.  I stamped it twice (in Palette Cognac - my new favorite color!) and then placed the hurricane lamp in the middle.  Then, in Palette Burnt Umber I stamped the Give Thanks over top.

I colored it with my Prisma pencils and glazed it with some Matte Accents.  I went over the candle with my Spica Clear pen for some shimmer.  The strip of designer paper is from the new Eerie collection from Basic Grey.  I love this print!  I also used my new A2 Leaves embossing folder from Quickutz for the two cardstock pieces and then finished it off with a piece of ivory satin ribbon.

I *think* these may be my Thanksgiving cards for this year!  Thanks for stopping by today!

This is awesome!! I never thought to stamp that arrangement twice- definitely going to have to try that.
