Hi there creative and crafty friends! Today is my day over on The Greetery Blog! It’s Full on FALL! And now that Halloween is almost here it’s time to plan ahead for Thanksgiving! This makes me so happy! All the Fall things – Lots of good things. It’s time to make those pretty Fall crafts for Thanksgiving, with leaves and pumpkins and golden color palettes. That’s just what I have for you today – a Thanksgiving card idea with favorite supplies from The Greetery.
My finished card is an A2 card base made from kraft cardstock. I layered a cream layer that I embossed, and then the pretty orange pumpkins. I started the card by embossing my background layer. I used the Postage Die to die cut a cream panel. Then I used that amazing Herbarium Embossing Folder to emboss the panel. I used a blending brush and Antique Linen Distress ink and very lightly went over the embossed portions to make them stand out.

I die cut out the Plump Pumpkin and the Honeycomb Pumpkin dies from orange cardstock. I inked the pieces using dark orange Distress Ink. I also splattered them with gold paint. I die cut the leaves from the Mighty Oak Die set and inked those too…. And added bits of glitter to look like they are glistening in the sun.
I stamped the sentiment from the Oakwood set and die cut it out with the matching die. My sentiment was stamped in dark brown ink instead of black to keep that warm tone. I placed everything onto my card using foam tape.
