Thankful Card featuring Spellbinders

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm sharing one more "Thankful" themed card for Spellbinders and this one features products from the Woodland Tales collection that was released in October. I'm keeping this brief today, thanks to a nasty cold that is trying to sideline me! I mustered all my energy to cook a Thanksgiving meal for my little family but my energy is quickly waning, haha!

I have fallen so in love with the vellum overlays in this collection. They're stunningly gorgeous and all you have to do is trim and adhere.

I also wanted to find some items to fit within my "thankful" theme and I'm happy to have found a pretty mason jar and sentiment that came from the Woodland Tales Die Cut Shapes and also the die cut sentiments set. 

I just sent a mason jar full of homemade gravy over to my dad's house today, with other Thanksgiving trimmings! Alas, I'm sick and didn't want to expose him. He's 84 years old but in pretty good health. Yet another thing to be thankful for. I also made an extra egg custard pie that he could have all to himself, it's his favorite. I'm such a good daughter, haha!

Next, I adhered some of those gorgeous satin gold sequins from the collection, along with the Woodland Tales Gold Flecked Gems. I am absolutely smitten with these embellishments! 

Lastly, both of my die cuts are popped up with adhesive foam strips for visual appeal. And don't you just love the gold foiled accents on my die cuts? I love that Spellbinders thinks of the tiniest, special details.

 

Make sure you check out all the Black Friday deals going on! I believe it was this time last year that I used a coupon code and got a really great deal on my Glimmer Hot Foil System, one of my favorite tools!

Gratitude Card Celebrating Scrapbook.com 25th Anniversary

I could not let August go by without celebrating Scrapbook.com and their 25 year Anniversary in business! I am so thankful that they gave me the opportunity years ago to create projects for them on occasion, and even happier that this relationship continues. Although, I'm an affiliate, project designer and brand ambassador for a number of companies in the craft and hobby industry, my relationship with them has been the longest and they hold a special place in my heart!

With that being said, I wanted to honor Scrapbook.com's anniversary by creating a gratitude card, thanking them for being such an amazing company. Scroll down for creative details and a little chit chat. I'll have a clickable shopping/supply list at the end of this post, as well.

When I heard that August is their Anniversary month, I considered making a birthday or anniversary card in celebration. Ultimately though, I feel such gratitude and decided I needed to follow my heart.

Luckily, I have some really awesome Scrapbook.com exclusive products in my stash that fit the bill. I wanted to keep this card really clean though, with lots of white. I also opted for Fall colors because it's my favorite time of year and I've been feeling all the Fall feels lately.

I chose the Wildflower Branches Stamp and Die Set, and the Gratitude Stamp and Die Set to create with. I also created an embossed backdrop with one of my favorite Spellbinders 3D embossing folders, using my black Spellbinders Platinum 6 die cut system which is an exclusive product available only at Scrapbookcom. Every year around November leading up to the holidays, I purchase myself a new tool and last year I bought the black Platinum 6. I love it so much!

I began by stamping my images using my Misti stamp positioner with my Scrapbookcom black hybrid ink. Hybrid ink works well with alcohol markers but also for watercoloring, which is my technique used for today.

The other inks I used were Catherine Pooler inks, which are a water based ink. I created with this quartet of inks: Catching Rays, Orange Twist, Eucalyptus and Macchiato. Simply press the ink pad onto your project mat or craft mat, and grab the color with a damp waterbrush. I generally mix in a tiny bit of water into some of my ink so I can layer my colors, light to dark.

My sentiment from the Gratitude stamp and die set was stamped with the same CP inks above (which the exception of Macchiato) to tie all my colorful elements together. 

All of my elements are popped up with Scrapbookcom adhesive strips and I also embellished just a bit with Scrapbookcom Pops of Color liquid gloss embellishment in Sunflower.

Happy Anniversary Scrapbookcom, and thank you for all you do to make this world a brighter place!

Terri

Plaid Sunflower Card with Doodling

Hello friends. My last order from Scrapbook.com included a free Sunflower die/emboss set and yes, I may have placed an order to get the free die, haha! I absolutely love sunflowers. My grandmother in upstate New York used to grow them on her farm. I also stumbled on a beautiful sunflower farm awhile back, here in Alabama, and got inspired all over again. They're one of God's beautiful creations!

(FTC Disclosure: as an affiliate for various companies in the craft industry, I will receive a small commission for purchases made through my convenient affiliate links, at no additional cost to you.)

 

I started by ink blending my A2 card panel with a variety of Ranger distress oxide inks along with my Simon Hurley Rectangle stencil. I actually masked a portion of the space with my mint tape so it was more of a squared area for ink blending. 

The sunflower die set includes 4 pieces and I used 3 of the dies, using papers from the Scrapbookcom Cozy paper pad, and the yellow paper from the Playful paper pad.

I recently made a card that featured a sentiment from the Scrapbookcom Gratitude stamp set, and I wanted to use another sentiment from that set. I used my Scrapbookcom hybrid ink in black and Autumn Leaves to stamp with my Misti stamp positioner.

I did something unexpected on this card; a little doodling for my flower stem. Don't ask me why, but I think it's a fun little surprise and adds a little bit of whimsy. What can I say, my brain has a mind of it's own, haha. I just drew a line with a green marker then outlined it with my Ranger fineliner Letter It black pen, and edged both sides of my stem with tiny little "prickly" lines. I also dotted my stem with a white gel pen.

The polka dot paper under my card panel was from the Cozy paper pad and is also the same paper I used for the small die cut center of my flower. I embellished my center with a white gel pen and Pops of Color in Creamsicle. I trimmed my card panel and patterned paper backing just a bit, to fit my A2 sized card.

If you'd like more details on any of the products that I used, or would like to shop, I have clickable affiliate links below, as an affiliate for Scrapbook.com. Thanks so much for stopping by and happy Fall cardmaking!

Terri
