In All Things, Give Thanks

 

Hi Friends!

This week, I am sharing another fall card designed with the new Carta Bella Welcome Autumn 6x6 paper pad along with the Stamp Simply Welcome Fall Bundle and other dies/supplies from Stamp Simply !

I love all of the designs in this new Carta Bella Welcome Autumn 6x6 Paper Pad- perfect for Autumn/Thanksgiving and all year round!

 Also, don't forget the Stamp Simply August promotion!

For this card, I used the SC394 Sketch Challenge for the layout (many of you who follow my blog know, I have a personal challenge to create a card for each of the over 860+ Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenges) and will also linking to one of my favorite online challenges, the Word Art Wednesday #503-#504 “Anything Goes” Challenge.

If you have not had a chance to visit the Stamp Simply blog or the other challenge sites yet, I encourage you to do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

To create this card:

Ink the pumpkin image from the Welcome Fall Bundle using Versafine Onyx Black ink, stamp onto white cardstock and heat set the ink with a heat tool.

Color the image with watercolor pencils and water-based markers and once satisfied with the water color, die cut the pumpkin with the matching die.

Use an embossing powder tool to de-static a piece of white cardstock, stamp the verse sentiment from Welcome Fall with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat with a heat tool.

Die cut the sentiment with the medium Hemstitch Oval Die , also die-cutting two additional ovals from black cardstock, splitting the black oval die cuts to layer behind the sentiment oval.

Die cut the Carta Bella Welcome Autumn 6x6 Paper (love those pumpkins) using the largest oval from the Hemstitch Oval Dies (along with the hemstitch oval).  Also die cut a large oval from black cardstock to layer behind the pumpkin oval.

Emboss a piece of white cardstock with the 3D Lumber Embossing Folder, trim to 4 ⅛” x 5 ⅜” and mount onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” black cardstock panel.

Adhere the designer paper die cut large oval layer to the card front.

Trim a piece of the orange plaid from the Welcome Autumn 6x6 paper pad to approx. 2” x 4 ⅛”, mount onto black cardstock, trim close to the edge.

Mount onto the card front overlapping the large die cut designer paper oval.

Add a strip of sage twill ribbon, wrapping the ends behind the panel.

Mount the entire background panel onto a white card base.

Adhere the oval sentiment layer with dimensional foam (or chipboard) onto the card front. 

Also, add the pumpkin image with dimensional foam and finish off the card with self-adhesive pearls.
