A Layered Thanksgiving Card

Hello, this is Amy here to share a project with you today.  Can you feel it??  Fall is in the air and I am super excited to be welcoming it with this fun little card.  I will admit that the fall months and Thanksgiving are my favorite times of the year. 

I created this layered pumpkin card with the Autumn Borders stamp set by coloring three different images and then layering the first one with some of the background cut out of the image on the second one.  For the third layer, I just colored and cut the pumpkin image to layer on top of the second one.  Here is a closer look at the image.....

Here is another shot that shows the layering a little better.  I used foam adhesive to give the image a little bit of a lift and dimension......

The Happy Thanksgiving is stamped from the Speaking of Fall stamp set.  I colored my images with Copic markers.  I also like to add a little bit of white pen accents to my colored images.  The patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye and I used some bakers twine from The Twinery.  I finished off the card with some stitching with my sewing machine. 

Here is a peek at the stamp sets I used today......

Autumn Blessings

Clare here with an Autumnal card today. I combined two different stamp sets from our recent release - Autumn Borders and Speaking of Fall. I love stamping my background papers and the gorgeous leaf stamps in the Speaking of Fall stamp set are perfect for this. For a change I stamped them onto some textured Core'dinations cardstock and colored with watercolors.

I stamped the pumpkin border from Autumn Borders onto some more Core'dinations cardstock, colored with watercolors and fussy cut.

The sentiment is a mix of sentiments from both Autumn Borders and Speaking of Fall. I hope you enjoyed my card, thanks for visiting today! Here are the sets I used on my card.
