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.

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.

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.

Below are the measurements and the supply list for my Thankgiving treat boxes. If you need supplies to recreate these treat boxes, please, shop my online store HERE.

Measurements

• Treat Holder Base: 6-1/4" x 5-3/8"; scored on the 6-1/4" side at 5/8", 1-5/8", 4-5/8"; scored on the 5-3/8" side at 3/4", 2-1/2", 3-1/4", and 5"; scored on the 5-3/8" side only down to the 1st horizontal score line at 3/8" and 2-7/8" (flip the cardstock to score on the opposite side)

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.

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.
