2-in-1 Thanksgiving Pumpkin Treat Holder and Placecard

Is it a treat holder or a place card? Why not be both!? Delight your Thanksgiving guests with this a pumpkin chocolate kiss triangle treat holder!

Hello Harvest, Rustic Pumpkin Dies, Thanksgiving place card chocolate kiss treat holder, table setting, 3D, home decor

This style of treat holder is so easy, quick to make, and can be customizable to the materials that you have on hand.

The base is a piece of cardstock bent into the shape of a triangle. Then a die cut or punched shape is adhered to 2 sides of the triangle and then adhered together. Lastly, a chocolate kiss is placed in the center of the triangle.

You may be familiar with this treat holder style with my plethora of cat punch treat holders for Valentine's Day and Halloween. Now that the cat punch is retired, I had to brainstorm other punches and dies that I could make the triangle treat holder with.

Don't worry. I didn't sell my cat punch after it retired. The cat punch is one punch that I plan on keeping for a long time regardless of its current or retired status. So, you may see some projects in the future with the cat punch.

With Thanksgiving coming soon, the pumpkin stamp and die from the #159634 Hello Harvest stamp set and the #159643 Rustic Pumpkin Dies was a great place to start!

Once I made the treat holders, I added a name tag across the front of the pumpkin to add the name of a guest. I wrote the names for these samples with my computer. However, I recommend a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker or a Basic Black Stampin' Blend to write the name of your guest before you attach the name tag to the pumpkin.

These treat holder place cards are versatile. Use them during the dinner or after. The place cards can be put at each guest's place setting or on a side table for guests to pick up when they arrive or for when they leave.

Make a Sweet Gift with this Turkey Punch Art Treat Holder

I am back with a second way to use Libby Fen's amazing turkey punch art! Today's project is a sweet chocolate marshmallow punch candy treat wrapper featuring Libby's turkey punch art.

The candy wrapper starts off the same way the turkey punch art napkin ring on Monday did. Stamp the leaves image with Crumb Cake ink all over the Sahara Sand wrapper base.

Curl the wrapper base with a bone folder to help wrap it around the candy. Wrap the wrapper base around the candy starting in the center of the front. Wrap the cardstock around the candy, so that the ends meet in the center of the front of the candy. Adhere the ends together with liquid glue or tear and Tape Adhesive.

Stamp the grateful greeting with Crumb Cake ink onto a Basic White cardstock rectangle. Stamp the greeting toward the right side, so that you can tuck the left side of the greeting underneath of the turkey punch art.

Adhere the greeting to candy wrapper on the right side and slightly to the right of the center.

Build the turkey punch art. Punch the body of the turkey using the Penguin Builder Punch and Crumb Cake cardstock. Punch the eyes from the Whale Builder Punch and Basic Black cardstock. Punch the wattle from the Whale Builder Punch spout and Real Red cardstock. Punch the beak from the Song Bird Punch and Daffodil Delight cardstock. Adhere the eyes, wattle, and beak to the turkey's body.


add dimensionals to the punch art. Thanksgiving, punch art, penguin builder punch, Painted Pheasant, 3D, treat holder

Add three dimensionals vertically down the center of the back of the turkey's body. Attach a maple leaf die cut from the Leaf Label and Amber Gems Combo Pack to the back of the turkey's body. Add amber gems to each of the ends of the feathers.

Then add 4 dimensionals vertically down the center of the back of the maple leaf. In the photo above, you will see 3 dimensionals on the leaf. Add 1 more dimensional right on top of the dimensional at the bottom of the turkey body. This will form a double layer of dimensionals to evenly support and level the punch art on the candy wrapper.

Set Your Thanksgiving Table with Turkey Punch Art Decor!

When I saw Libby Fen's punch art turkey card using the Penguin Builder Punch, I just had to create a project using her punch art design! Libby's turkey punch art is so perfect, festive, and adorable! It is great for your Thanksgiving guests of all ages! Today's project is a custom napkin ring for your Thanksgiving table.

Thanksgiving napkin ring with a punch art turkey on the front. A maple leaf die cut is used for the turkey's feathers. Thanksgiving, punch art, penguin builder punch, Painted Pheasant, 3D, table setting, home decor


I made a napkin ring for the Thanksgiving table featuring Libby's punch art turkey. The napkin ring base is Sahara Sanda cardstock stamped with the leaves from Painted Pheasant. Attached to the front is the turkey punch art. I love the addition of the amber gems to the ends of the turkey's "feathers"! How clever and beautiful!

First, I stamped the leaves image with Crumb Cake ink on a 2" x 7-3/4" piece of Sahara Sand cardstock. Then I added a piece of Tear and Tape Adhesive vertically to the left edge of the cardstock.

Stamp the leaves on the napkin ring base, add adhesive, and curl. Thanksgiving, punch art, penguin builder punch, Painted Pheasant, 3D, table setting, home decor


Next I curled the cardstock with a bone folder to  help the cardstock become a cylinder shape.

I used a napkin ring that I had to help shape the cardstock napkin ring. This is not necessary, but it was helpful for me to form the napkin ring cyclinder shape. Remove the Tear and Tape Adhesive and adhere the cardstock ends together to complete the napkin ring base.

If you are using a store bought napkin ring as a form, you can now remove it from the cardstock napkin ring base.

Build the turkey punch art. Punch the body of the turkey using the Penguin Builder Punch and Crumb Cake cardstock. Punch the eyes from the Whale Builder Punch and Basic Black cardstock. Punch the wattle from the Whale Builder Punch spout and Real Red cardstock. Punch the beak from the Song Bird Punch and Daffodil Delight cardstock. Adhere the eyes, wattle, and beak to the turkey's body.

Add 3 dimensionals vertically down the center of the back of the turkey's body. Attach a maple leaf die cut from the Leaf Label and Amber Gems Combo Pack to the back of the turkey's body. Add amber gems to each of the ends of the feathers.

Then add 4 dimensionals vertically down the center of the back of the maple leaf. In the photo below, you will see 3 dimensionals on the leaf. Add 1 more dimensional right on top of the dimensional at the bottom of the turkey body. This will form a double layer of dimensionals to evenly support and level the punch art on the napkin ring.

Adding dimensionals down the center of the punch art enables the cardstock to move and bend when being used without tearing or being too fragile.

Make your Thanksgiving Extra Special with these Festive Treat Boxes

Today's Thanksgiving treat boxes were inspired by a project shared by fellow demonstrator Julie DeMatteo. Julie shared a treat box that she modified from fellow demonstrator Katja Hamann. Julie resized Katja's original box to fit a Reese's peanut butter egg. I am using Julie's resized box measurements for my Thanksgiving treat box.

I enjoy creating and making different shaped treat holders. When I saw both Julie's and Katja's boxes, I thought that the shape and construction was very intriguing. I had to try it!

I made two treat boxes right away! I decorated both treat boxes with the leaves stamp from the Painted Pheasant stamp set and Rich Razzleberry ink.

I die cut the small label from the Seasonal Dies and a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. The Happy Thanksgiving greeting is stamped in the center with Rich Razzleberry ink. The grassy reeds are stamped with Crumb Cake ink with full strength ink and stamped off strength ink.

On one of the boxes I wrapped linen thread and added a box to the top of the greeting. On the other box I added 3 amber gems to the right of the greeting and the grassy reeds.

Treelined Landscape Display Panel Fun Fold Thanksgiving Card

I was excited to try this new to me fun fold! It is called the Landscape Display Panel Card and was made by fellow Stampin' Up! demonstator Heidi Smith based on the portrait version made by fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator Susan Campfield. Susan called her card a freestanding floating panel card.


Beauty of Friendship Treelined Thanksgiving Landscape Display Panel Fun Fold Card


This fun fold card can stand up on its own, making it an idea display card! You can see from the overhead view photo below that there are three panel areas - a smaller panel in the front, a larger panel behind it, and a center panel across the back of the card base.


Beauty of Friendship Treelined Thanksgiving Landscape Display Panel Fun Fold Card


For my landscape display panel card, I envisioned a tree lined forest scene with leaves changing to reds, oranges, and yellows with just a touch of gold embossing powder. I used the tree stamps from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set to make the row of trees across each of the panels. The grass is made by lightly swirling Garden Green ink along the bottom of the panels. I wanted the emphasis to be on the tree leaves and the greeting.

Beauty of Friendship Treelined Thanksgiving Landscape Display Panel Fun Fold Card


The gold embossing powder adds a bright metallic shine that pairs well with the brilliant red, orange, and yellow of the trees' leaves. The embossing powder also embellishes the card without adding extra bulk to this already thick fun fold card.

Beauty of Friendship Treelined Thanksgiving Landscape Display Panel Fun Fold Card heat embossing


This fun fold card does fit in a A2 envelope and does fold flat. However, this fun fold is bulky because of the scoring and the layers of panels. I don't recommend adding too many 3 dimensional embellishments to your card to avoid having to purchase a special gusseted envelope.

There is plenty of room on the back of the card to write a special message. I repeated the trees growing together from the center front of the card to the back of the card.

Floral Pumpkin Thanksgiving Card

For today's card I created an autumnal Thanksgiving card featuring the Hello Harvest stamp set (#159634) and Rustic Pumpkin Dies (#159643) as well as the Painted Pheasant stamp set (#159846). This card layout is also easy to replicate and make multiples for your family and friends.


Hello Harvest Thanksgiving Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder Card Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper DSP

I like the thanksgiving greeting stamp from Painted Pheasant for this card (and also in general) because the fonts are easy to read and it does not overshadow the pumpkin floral element in the center of the card.

I stamped the thanksgiving greeting on Daffodil Delight cardstock to tie the greeting to the sunflowers and to the squash on the designer series paper.

I was originally going to stamp the pumpkin in the center of the Basic White rectangle and adhere the floral spray with dimensionals on top of the pumpkin. However, the background looked too bare and the pumpkin receded into the background.

So, I die cut the pumpkin and added dimensionals to the back of both the pumpkin and the floral spray. Then I used the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder to add a delicate layer of interest behind the pumpkin and floral die cuts without overwhelming the rest of the card.


 
Inside of the card is plenty of room to write a thanksgiving message. At the bottom I added a 3/4" strip of the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper.

Pro Tip: You can cut each of the designer series paper panels separately or cut 1 piece that measures 3-5/8" x 5-1/4" and cut it into 3 panels as indicated in the measurements list below. You should be able to cut 6 panels of 3-5/8" x 5-1/4" and 6 pieces that measure 4" x 3/4" for the inside DSP strip using a 12" x 12" piece of designer series paper.

Hello Harvest Offset Gatefold Card

Fun folds, like this offset gate fold card, are a great way to feature designer series papers, especially with larger prints and scenes. The Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper in the 2022 July-December Mini Catalog is perfectly suited. It has larger patterns with fall squashes and gourds and large chrysanthemums that could almost fill the entire card front.

You can cut the designer series paper piece in one continuous scene or cut three individual strips of designer series paper. For today's card, I cut the designer series paper in a large panel and then cut it into three individual l pieces to create continuous scene. 

The offset gate fold card is similar to the regular gate fold card. It keeps the same card base, but the front opening is moved to one side. You can move the opening to the right or to the left side of the card. You can hold the card vertically or horizontally, like in today's project.

The card closes by securing the left tail of the banner underneath a grouping of three sunflowers. I adhered the sunflowers in a cluster to a small scrap of cardstock to reinforce the strength of the closure. The card functions without the reinforcement, so the extra cardstock underneath the sunflowers is not essential.

Happy Fall, Y’all! Baby Wipe Ink Refill Technique

I host Zoom stamping sessions twice a week on most weeks - Monday evening and Friday afternoon. All of my current customers and my demonstrator team members are welcome to join in and stamp with us. Email me for the Zoom meeting information. I would love for you to stamp with us!

During tonight's Zoom stamping session we made cards using the Baby Wipe Technique. The Baby Wipe Technique is a way of creating your own variegated "ink pad" using a baby wipe and ink refills.

Craft with Beth: Baby Wipe Technique fall autumn autumnal card Rooted in Nature Banner Year stamp sets

The Baby Wipe Technique truly lends itself for autumnal colors! I love the deep oranges, reds, browns, yellows, and even purples that fall is so known for! Fall is my absolute favorite season! I think that is why I tend to create with it during the latter half of the year.

Start with a baby wipe and fold it in half or in quarters, depending on how large or small the stamp that you are using is. You want your baby wipe to be about 1/4" or 1/2" larger than the stamp you are using, so that you have plenty of ink coverage. Place the baby wipe on a water-resistant surface such as a folded paper towel or the silicone craft mat to help keep your work surface clean.


Craft with Beth: Baby Wipe Technique fall autumn autumnal card Rooted in Nature Banner Year stamp sets

Choose 3 or 4 different ink refills that coordinate well together - anymore and the color may become muddled. I chose Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, and Rich Razzleberry ink refills. Start with your lightest ink refill and randomly drop ink onto the baby wipe.

Go to your next lightest ink refill and randomly drop ink onto the baby wipe. Spread the ink droplets around the baby wipe.

Then repeat with your darkest ink refill.

It is ok to leave some areas of the baby wipe without ink. The more you stamp with this "ink pad", the more the ink droplet starts to fill in and to blend together.


Craft with Beth: Baby Wipe Technique fall autumn autumnal card Rooted in Nature Banner Year stamp sets

Take your stamp and pounce around the baby wipe "ink pad" to fully cover the stamp with ink and stamp onto your cardstock. Is there enough ink on your stamp? Do you like the way the ink refills are blending together? If not, try adding more ink refill to the baby wipe.

Once you are satisfied with your "ink pad," continue stamping your project.

You can stamp several projects with one baby wipe, but add more ink refills to the baby wipe if you notice that the baby wipe is starting to dry out, or as needed.


Craft with Beth: Baby Wipe Technique fall autumn autumnal card Rooted in Nature Banner Year stamp sets

Once you are finished using the baby wipe, you can use the remaining ink to create backgrounds for cards and 3D projects. Simply, scrunch up the baby wipe with the ink facing outwards and swipe across your cardstock. Repeat swiping across the cardstock until it is fully covered with ink. You can also pounce the baby wipe all over your cardstock to create a sponged look.

For the inside of these cards, I stamped the large leaves from Rooted in Nature with Rich Razzleberry ink onto one of the ink-swiped backgrounds and cut it to fit the width of the card base.

This card layout is simple and straightforward to show off the baby wipe ink refill technique and is very easy to customize. You can change the greeting and the leaf stamps to suite any occasion.

The "Happy Thanksgiving" greeting stamp is also included with the Banner Greetings stamp set., but you don't have to limit this technique to only the fall months. Can you imagine how beautiful butterflies or tulips would be with spring colors?!

I hope you give the Baby Wipe Technique a try! What stamp sets and ink refill colors will you use for your card? I would love to see what you create! Post project photo on my Facebook Page or email your project photo. I would love to feature your project photo in one of my upcoming newsletters!

Season of Thanks Triptych Daisy Card

This Thanksgiving card, using the Gather Together Bundle and the Medium Daisy Punch, is my second attempt at a layered leaves or collage-style grouping. I sandwiched the stitched oval die cut between the layered leaves die cuts and the medium daisy punch outs for make a more dimensional look. The gold faceted gem in the center of the daisy provides the perfect amount of sparkle!

Craft with Beth: Stampin' Up! Thanksgiving card stamp Gathered Leaves Dies Gather Together stamp set bundle Medium Daisy Punch Stitched Shapes Dies Come to Gather Designer Series Paper DSP thank you gratitude

The background on the card front is a panel of 3 strips of Come to Gather Designer Series Paper. Each of the panels looks like it is connected to the next one and from one large piece of Designer Series Paper. In fact, it is from one larger piece of Designer Series Paper.

I started with a 3-3/4" by 5-1/4" piece of Come to Gather Designer Series Paper and cut it into 3 pieces of 1-1/4" by 5-1/4" each, so that the background was one cohesive scene. A grouping of 3 cohesive panels like this is also known as a triptych (without it being connected by hinges and foldable).

Craft with Beth: Stampin' Up! Thanksgiving card stamp Gathered Leaves Dies Gather Together stamp set bundle Medium Daisy Punch Stitched Shapes Dies Come to Gather Designer Series Paper DSP thank you gratitude

There are two greeting stamps on the inside of the card. I thought the two greetings stamps went well together for this card.

I hope you give this 3-panel card a try! You can use the same Designer Series Paper like I did, or use a mixture of Designer Series Papers. I bet it would look amazing with embossing folders, too! I would love to see what you create! Post a photo of your 3-paneled card on my Facebook page!

You can find the measurements and a supply list for this project at the end of the post. I hope you enjoyed this project! Please leave a comment below (click on the pencil icon at the bottom of this post)! I would love to hear from you!
