Harvest Happiness Thanksgiving Card with Lindsey

Hi, Lindsey here today with a fun Thanksgiving card featuring a stamp set from last year called Harvest Happiness. This set is just filled with sweet little images, so I decided to incorporate many of them in my card today. Let's get started!

I began with some fall plaid paper in an A2 sized stitched rectangle. Next, I cut another slightly smaller stitched rectangle from some Kraft cardstock. This is the panel I did my stamping on. I simply laid out the stamps I wanted to use on top of my Kraft cardstock and then stamped them out. I had to stamp some of the smaller images more than once to fill in some gaps. 

Next, I colored all my images with Copic markers and added some detail with a white gel pen. I outlined each image with a light gray marker to give a slight shadow around the images and really make them pop. To finish, I added foam tape to the back of the Kraft cardstock panel and attached on top of the plaid card base. That's it! This was a pretty simple yet fun card to create.

Harvest Happiness: I Love You More Than Pie! by Anni

Hey stampers, Anni here!  

Here I am with my last card as a design team member for Sunny Studio Stamps. I had a great time. Mendi is such a sweet person and I am so thankful for this opportunity, but it is time to move on for me.

For this card I used the super cute set Harvest Happiness!

I stamped the image in Memento ink and colored it with colored pencils (Polychromos and Prismacolor). For a little extra touch I added some highlights with a gel pen. After that I fussy cut the image (there are also coordinating dies available).

I chose some matching patterned paper from my stash and cut it into a rectangle. I die cut a circle as a window and a frame from matching cardstock.  As my card base I decided to go with some kraft paper because I think it's great for fall cards.

I drew a circle with a pencil and a light hand on my card base where my circle window would be. That made it easier for me to stamp the sentiment with Versamark and emboss it in white (I love white on kraft, don't you?).

Thanks for stopping by and have a sunny week.
