Painted Harvest Thanksgiving

Hello, welcome back to my blog.  My share with you today is a card I made for Thanksgiving, but never shared.  I'm trying real hard to get better at blogging and sharing my creations.  I started off with a card base of Old Olive, added a strip of dsp from the Daisy Delight package across the middle.  A layer of Early Espresso was added and then a layer from the Wood Textures dsp stack.  I stamped the full image of the sunflower in Crushed Curry and the more detailed image in Cajun Craze.  I then turned my full image stamp and stamped another layer of Crushed Curry.  I saw Patty Bennett do this and think it adds so much to the flower.  This piece was then cut with the Stitched Shape Framelits and layered onto Old Olive, which was then adhered to the card front at the top of the wood textures layer.  The greeting comes from the stamp set At Home With You stamped in Early Espresso and cut with the banner from the Large Letters framelits.  A little Crushed Curry was sponged on the edges of the banner and then it was adhered to the bottom of the wood textures layer with dimensionals.  That's if for today, thank you so much for stopping by.

Measurements:
Old Olive: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 and folded in half for card base, 2 3/4 x 2 3/4
Delightful Daisy dsp: 2 x 4 1/4
Early Espresso: 3 1/2 x 4 1/2
Wood Textures dsp: 3 1/4 x 4

Painted Harvest Christmas

Hello, thanks for stopping by.  My share for you today is a Christmas card made primarily with a non-Christmas stamp set.  Painted Harvest is wonderful and is so easy to use.  My card base is Thick Whisper White followed by a layer of Real Red embossed with the Holly embossing folder.  A strip of Quilted Christmas dsp (design series paper) is the next layer up and then a square of the same paper stack, just a different print.  I used the largest square from the Stitched Shapes framelits to cut a piece of Whisper White and stamped the full image of the wreath with Lemon Lime Twist and the detailed image in Garden Green.  I then stamped another layer of Lemon Lime Twist with the full image again, turning the stamp to add some more texture to the wreath.  I saw Patty Bennett do this and think it adds so much to the stamped image.  I added some holly berries with Real Red ink.  The bow for the wreath is stamped with Real Red ink on Real Red cardstock using the Beautiful Bouquet stamp set and then cut with the Bouquet Bunch Framelits.  My greeting comes from Star of Light and then cut with the Bunch of Banners framelits.

For the inside of the card I stamped another wreath, the same as I did on the front.  I added a couple of strips of dsp cut into banners along with a sentiment from Hang Your Stocking.

Measurements are as follows:

Thick Whisper White: 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, 2 3/4 x 2 3/4, 3 x 3/4

Real Red: 4 x 5 1/4, plus scrap for bow

DSP: 4 1/4 x 2, 3 x3, 2 x 3/4, 1 5/8 x 1/2

Garden Green: 3 1/4 x 1
