Hello there! Sometimes you just need a clean card with lots of white space, you know?  Do not get me wrong, I love a good technique as much as anyone else, but you don't need all of those things to make a pretty card. Simple, basic stamping will always produce a happy card that you can mail to a friend. For this card, I stamped the sentiment and then built the images around it. The leaves were easy to place because I could stamp them off the tail of the "e" letter. Then I chose the pumpkin and fruit to go above the sentiment because they were flat on the bottom, and could fit between the G and the D. The images were colored in with copic markers, then to embellish a bow was tied using pretty orange ribbon. This stamp is called Happy Thanksgiving , and you can see the full reveal over on the Technique Tuesday blog !

Here is a companion card I made, to match the card I made yesterday.  I plan on making these into a set and giving them away.  So, I'm trying to keep them in the same color family.  Again, I am using Avocado Arts stamps.  I'm using simple stamping techniques, with minimal embellishments so they will only cost one stamp to mail. Check out what the other designers have created for you today, using this set as well.

Do you ever send Thanksgiving cards out?  To be honest, I make them, but don't send them.  Maybe this year I will actually get one into the mail?  I'm a cardmaker, not the best card sender lol.  I think the latest stamp set from Avocado Arts will help me on my mission to send a Thanksgiving card out.  It has classic images mixed with a few punny images/sentiments, to make this a great all around fall set.
