Thankful

I made this card for the SoShelli.com Creative Challenge. It was to make something that you are thankful for. This card is going to be sent out to friends and family (what I am thankful for) for Thanksgiving.

The card stock I used was Very Vanilla, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron. I used Chocolate Chip ink to stamp the sentiment (from the stamp sets Celebrate Everything and Fundamental Phrases) and the background (Canvas stamp). I used Pumpkin Pie ink to sponge around the pumpkin to give it some depth.

Other materials I used were the Wide Oval punch (punched five times to make the pumpkin), 5/8" Grosgrain ribbon in Chocolate Chip (for the pumpkins stem), the 1/2" and 3/4" circle punch cut into a spiral shape to make the vines on the pumpkin and a paper cutter to cut the So Saffron card stock into "hay" pieces.

Thanks for looking!
