Thanks & Giving Plaid Wreath Give Thanks Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the hand drawn style wreath from the Thanks & Giving stamp set.  This set is perfect for notes of appreciation and reminders of all we have to be thankful for with heartfelt words and autumn images.  Framing the wreath and greeting with the Spotlight On Nature dies, and setting it all on plaid backgrounds invokes the feeling of cool nights and a warm, soft blanket.


Techniques include coloring with Stampin' Blends, die cutting and embossing.

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Stampin' Blends make it so easy to feel like an artist!  A simple hand drawn wreath image like this really comes to life with a few colors.  With both a light and dark shade of each color, it's a wonderful way to add a variety of color to an image, giving even simple images a lot of depth and texture.
