Fall-Themed Thanksgiving Card

Annie’s Ink-Lings

Hi friends,

Back again with the third and last fall themed card, but with the sentiment of "Give Thanks."  My idea is to use it as a Thanksgiving greeting card.  For some unknown reason, I've been drawn to wreaths lately, so once again a wreath die was used for the focal point of the card.  I really like how the wreath shows up on the background image.  It was made using the Stampin' Up Hardwood stamp with Walnut Stain Distress Ink on red card stock.  The gold foil berries and the red foil bow give just the right amount of shine to the card.  I hope you like it, too.

1.  Stamp red panel with Walnut Stain Distress Ink and dry with heat gun.

2.  Trim panel to 4” x 5 ¼”.

3.  At the bottom of the panel on the right, stamp the “Give Thanks” sentiment and adhere the panel to card base.

4.  Trim the dark brown acorn so there is only the top portion left.  With the light brown acorn trim off the stem.  Glue the 2 pieces together.

5.  Glue wreath to center of red panel and arrange the elements as follows:  pine branch, fern pieces, gold berries, acorn, and bow.
