Happy Thanksgiving
>> Tuesday, September 8, 2020
Hi Everyone,
I love the sweet, serene look of this chair filled with the bounty of autumn. With the hat slung over the back, it looks like someone just came in from the garden. It was a pleasure coloring up the new Autumn Harvest Chair (042K) and making some backgrounds for the fall themed card were fun too.
The brown layer was stamped using the leaf portion of the 4 in 1 Harvest Designs and the strip along the side was stamped using the Argyle Background and the Argyle Diamond. I love that the little diamond stamp fits right in there, letting me customize the colors, and with the amount of room left on the bottom, I added the Happy Thanksgiving portion of the new World Changed Thankful Greeting (066H)
Using the other half of my yellow card stock, I decided to make a second card, one that didn't require coloring. I stamped the Single Fall Tree three times and used the spotlight technique to bring in the effect of autumn leaves. All you need is colored paper and a small circle punch.
I sponged on some green ink for grass and added the fence from the new River Rocks & Fence Line 2 in 1 Scene (087P).
I finished the card using the Script Happy Thanksgiving stamp, die cutting it and sponging it using the color inspiration from the trees.

These are super cute cards, Karin. I really like the design of both & the coloring of the chair image. It really pops with that background! The second card just makes me smile with its simple design & beautiful fall colors! Lovely!
Karin, these are very fun! Love your layouts, use of stamps, and fun designs. Wonderful coloring on the chair - you make mine look like a kindergartner did it! Love the argyle! GREAT Fall cards! Hugz
Love your bg harlequin on the first card and design elements, so pretty and the chair in that die cut is perfect!
The second card is fun with those colored circles behind the trees and the cute fence line.
Beautiful cards!
Wonderful fall cards Karin! Your coloring on the chair is beautiful! and your multi color argyle is perfect to go with it! Love your no color card - it looks quick and easy but still has a lot of color to grab attention!
These are really super, Karin! Love the colors & the argyle looks wonderful & brings in more of that terrific fall color. Love the colored circles to represent foliage on your bare trees. Such a super idea.
Great colors on your trees and sentiment Karin. Terrific use for the fence.
