Simon Says.........Thanksgiving


Happy Hump Day - that means it's time for a new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!


This week our theme is Thanksgiving or Thank You.  The Design Team is playing with Hero Arts products this week, one of my favorite companies!   My first card uses a clear stamp set called Season of Giving, which appears to be out of stock at the moment.


I used the largest of the sentiments and then stamped, colored, and fussy-cut some of the smaller images in the set to form my wreath.  (the maple leaf is from another HA set Happy Thanksgiving).  I added some pearls in autumnal colors, and a twine bow.

Here's a Thank You card in the colors of the season:


supplies: kraft and tan cardstocks, dp from DCWV Pumpkin Patch, Hero Arts Stitched Frame, Dictionary Greeting, and Find Joy (for sentiment), Impression Obsession Small Leaf die

Now it's your turn!  Heidi has provided another $50.00 gift voucher
