THANKSGIVING CARDS

Claire has a theme challenge today on The Paper Players Challenge (give thanks) - I chose the top row middle from the photo for creating my card - the falling leaves with the trees in the background.


My card is a mini slimline - 3.25"x6.25".  I embossed the trees on a piece of kraft cs.  Die cut leaves from patterned paper and arranged - then spattered all with gold metallic paint.  Added the sentiment and done.

 

My second card also has the falling leaves and a thanks message.  I used a Hero Arts leaves stencil with white pigment ink to create the background.  Die cut the leaf from some pp and adhered to a piece of vellum.  Spattered it all over with white gouache, added the sentiment and done.

 


My last card is for The Card Concept #163 which has a beautiful photo for inspiration.  The minute I saw the challenge I knew I had to use Alex Syberia's digi, Autumn Bouquet.  Colored the digi with copics, added it to a black card base along with the sentiment and done.


Thanks for dropping by today.
