Some Wreaths for November Thanks

 It's November!  This month is for being grateful, and so I thought I'd start it out with a couple wreath cards for that occasion.  

Both of them start with cream card bases, and use Concord & 9th Turnabout products and the same 4 colors of distress oxide inks.

My first card uses a turnabout stamp set called Harvest Wreath.


supplies: cream and Audrey Blue cardstock, vellum, Concord & 9th Harvest Wreath Turnabout stamp set, Turnabout Jig, mustard seed, ripe persimmon, peacock feathers, and vintage photo oxide inks, Sunny Studio Autumn Greetings sentiment, Pink Fresh Studio Folk Edge Rectangle die

These stamps make such a pretty design, that I never want to cover them up, so I stamped and clear embossed my sentiment on a strip of vellum this time.  It reads "Wishing You a Season of Blessings".

The second card started with a turnabout stencil called Autumn Hues.


supplies: cream cardstock, Concord & 9th Autumn Hues Turnabout stencil, Turnabout Jig, same inks as above, sentiment and circle from Gina K. Designs Autumn Wreath Builder, MFT Wonky Stitched Rectangle die

These Turnabout goodies are pure fun, in my opinion; I always enjoy the process of working with them!  For those of you who haven't tried them yet, you position the stamp or stencil in your Misti with the help of the included acetate alignment aid, choose a color of ink, stamp or stencil, then turn your cardstock 1/4 turn to the right and choose another ink color, repeating this twice more to complete the design using 4 colors. I always use the Turnabout Jig to make sure my paper is positioned correctly to get the design centered perfectly on it. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today - have a great one!
