The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Very Vanilla card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.
My Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the "Autumn Toile" 12" x 12" package. The piece on the right was cut at 1-5/8" x 4-1/4". I cut this one a little wider so the next piece can overlap it. The next piece was cut at 4" x 4-1/4" and taped down.
The circles were cut using the same DSP and were cut using the second largest circle die from the "Stylish Shapes" set. The right circle was added first and it's about 1/4" from the top and 3/16" from the right side. It could be moved over to be 1/4" too but I just eyed it, I had tape behind it and it landed on my piece so I had to leave it. But it looks just fine where it is.
The green circle was added and it's about 1/4" from the left side and 1/4" from the bottom.
The words are from the "Layers of Beauty" bundle and were stamped using Early Espresso ink on Very Vanilla card stock. I cut them out using the 4th largest circle in the set. I cut them out so they were as high up on the circle as I could get it. I taped it to the front of the card. It's about 1-1/4" from the right side and 1/2" from the bottom edge.
The leaves are from the "Gathering Moments" bundle. I inked them up using Crushed Curry ink and then tapped on some Cajun Craze ink. I did that for both leaves. I cut them out using the matching die in the bundle. I taped them together a bit offset. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the front of the card.
I had some retired embellishments that I thought would look good on the card so I used them. Yup, I still have lots of retired embellishments in my stash and I do need to use them up.
This was a fun and easy card to make. How can you go wrong with cutting circles from printed papers? You get the best of both here. You get DSP and stamping designs all on one card.
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Thanksgiving/thank you card,
Wanda
