Five Thank You Cards to Start Your Thanksgiving Season

Yeah yeah I know I know, Halloween comes first so why am I even talking about Thanksgiving. Well, simple really: I don’t like Halloween. It’s a creepy holiday celebrating death and the occult. Me, I’m into Life. And that’s the first important reason to be aware of everything that deserves your gratitude – or your thanksgiving, if you will. After that come many more reasons, one of those being the people you are grateful for of being in your life, or whom you’d like to thank for some actual nice thing they have done for you the past year. So why not add a card to that gift you’re buying them? 🙂

That is why this week I’m sharing five of those, to inspire you with some ideas – and well in time for you to make them 🙂 All my cards were made with an older Bo Bunny collection called Ambrosia, but the main thing I hope will inspire you is that paper alone really is enough to make beautiful cards.

Layering was the main technique I used, using the design paper and the diecut pack that came with the collection and playing around with some dimensional tape. Some stamping will always do well of course, to add the main sentiment to your card.

Will you be sending out any Thanksgiving cards this year, or will you add any to your gifts? Let me know in the comment section!

 

Two Modern Patchwork Cards

I tried out a new die set, called Modern Patchwork, which lets you create your own, well, patchwork of papers. 🙂

I really like the results, these cards were fun to create, give you a totally different look and as a bonus they are perfect to use up those beautiful scraps of paper you’ve got lying around everywhere because you can’t bring yourself to throw them away 🙂

So here’s the video! (and please don’t forget to click the like button 😉 )
The die-set’s product number is CLMP02 by the Dutch company Crealies. I used Coral Couture papers by DCWV.
