Harvest Blessings!

Welcome Everyone;

There is no doubt that this has been a very difficult year.  Our normal as we have known it, has been turned completely upside down.

However, there have still been some good times and things to be greatful for  One of them is a good harvest.  In a few weeks, all the crops will have been harvested and Thanksgiving will be here.  For today's card, I have used Bountiful Harvest from High Hopes Stamps.  After colouring the image with Copic Markers, I used a Wonky Oval die to cut it out.  As this is a CAS card, some enamel dots and ribbon to finish it off.

Supplies used:

• Stamps:  Bountiful Harvest (J200), Bold Harvest Blessings (F084) -- High Hopes Stamps 
• Distressed Ink:  Wild Honey
• Copic Markers:  
• Y0000 - Yellow Fluorite, Y00 - Pale Lemon, Y04 - Acadia, Y06 - Yellow

Celebrate The Joys

I have one more fall, Thanksgiving themed card to share with you this month.

Fall is my favourite time of year and so is Thanksgiving. 

I am thankful for my family and friends, and I am grateful for the things I have accomplished and the challenges I have survived. This week's card is more of a simple layout then I usually do. I love this sentiment and I wanted to find a way to use it to have it be the focal point of my card along with a horn of plenty with lots of fresh produce in it. 

I cut my stitched oval circle and then using my Misti, stamped the sentiment. I cut a scallop oval to put behind it. After colouring my stamps with alcohol markers I hand fussy cut them. I added my stamps to patterned paper from Simple Stories and Carta Bella. Some twine and gumdrops finish off my card.
