Welcome to another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!
Our theme this week is Thanks or Thanksgiving, and the DT are playing with all things Tim Holtz! I used one of a set of his dies and also a stencil this week:
supplies: recycled cream cardstock, Tim Holtz Mixed Media 2 thinlet die, carved pumpkin, ripe persimmon, fired brick and aged mahogany distress inks, Lawn Fawn Stitched Leaves die, Winnie & Walter Big, Bold Blessings sentiment, Simon Stitched Rectangle die, Little B acorn sticker
This card is longer than normal - I wanted to use all of this beautiful scroll/flourish and the big sentiment, so I just lengthened it to about 7 1/4". My next card is a normal A2 size.

supplies: kraft, recycled cream, chocolate, and burnt orange cardstock, Tim Holtz Autumn stencil, distress inks as above, plus rusty hinge and gathered twigs, a swirly leaf embossing folder, DieNamics thanks die
The splatters are part of the stencil design. I love the way the embossing brings out the details of the leaves even more, or vice-versa! I offset my sentiment die with a darker brown under the top one to give it more definition.
