Crafter's Companion 'Inspirers' Design Team - November #4 (Thanksgiving card)

Good morning

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL

Well I'm here today to share one of my November Crafter's Companion Design Team projects with you.


Today's card is a CAS one and in celebration of Thanksgiving. I've used autumnal coloured card stock and copper coloured glitter card which seemed fitting, and a simple sentiment.

I hope you like my take on it :)





Here's What I Did
To start with I created a 5¼" x 7¼" top fold card blank from a sheet of white card. From copper coloured glitter card I cut 2 strips and added them down each sides.

I cut down a piece of strong white card and die cut a circle into the top portion of it, then I dry embossed it using a wood grain effect embossing folder. A computer generated sentiment was glued behind the aperture and added to the card front using foam pads.

Using different coloured card, I die cut lots of leaves and glued then around the window.  To finish off I attached amber coloured gems around the front of the card.

Here's What I Used
