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.
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.
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.
