Thankful

  Good Morning! 

I just wanted to share the news that I have been published in the 

Fall 2023 Creative Scrapbooker Magazine  

You can find this pretty little Thankful card on Page 128.  

I'll also be entering this card into the

Simon Says Monday Challenge, Favorite Technique.

Hands down, this is absolutely one of my most favorite techniques!

"Eclipse Cover Plate"

  Pinkfresh Studio Daisy Wreath Stencil.  

PTI Counting My Blessings, Thankful die, layered 3 times.

Poppystamps Lattice Cover Plate die.

  Distress Oxide inks in; 

Antique Linen, Cracked Pistachio, Fired Brick, Fossilized Amber, 

Peeled Paint, Spiced Marmalade and Vintage Photo.

Tuxedo Black ink.  

Gina K Designs Gold Embossing Powder.

  Stampin' Up! Country Home stamp set.

  

This is such a beautiful technique.

Stencil or stamp the image once and then

die cut with any Cover Plate.  

Piece everything back together like a puzzle.

I like to add even more dimension and add foam tape

beneath the Cover Plate die cut.  

You can see the details here in this VIDEO.  

My HACK is to only create the image once, 

no need to double your efforts.

Thankful

Back again!  

This card will be entered into the following Challenges:

Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes.

I think this was one of my most favorite Thanksgiving cards to create.

Rustic.  Easy.

I started by creating my wood grained background, scoring every 1/2".

Then swiping inks, direct to paper I achieved the colors that I wanted.

Inks in; greys, blues, light brown and white.

It reminds me of well worn Cape Cod shingles.

Wreath is made using die cuts from Paper Smooches Foliage 2 

and the large leaf from a Momenta die set.

I also swiped Versa Mark ink onto some of the edges of foliage 

and dipped them in Gold Embossing Powder.  Heat set.

Thankful die is by PTI, Count My Blessings die set.

I taped half of the die cut off and then coated the bottom portion in a Gold Sakura Glitter Pen for a little bit of a different look.

I kind of love it!

Thanks so much for coming by, I count you among my blessings!

Enjoy~~
