Yea...Me! Thanksgiving cards made and mailed!! I am trying to turn over a new leaf and mail out all those cards that I make with the intention of mailing instead of, OOPS...there they sit in my craft room.
I made this card with the intention of mass producing and mailing with a regular stamp. I kept it simple, with no bulk. GEEZ...mailing a bulky card costs are outrageous and when you are mailing around 20 Thanksgiving cards, they need to be able to be mailed with just one little regular stamp.
I started with a Kraft card stock card base and added strips of DP and a piece of embossed card stock. The sentiment was stamped and punched out with SU! punches. I sometime tend to forget about my punches and always reach for my dies. It's time to give a little love to the punches. I absolutely love this D2D design, Stitched Pumpkin. It was perfect for my simple, little card.
Recipe:
Stamps - Stitched Pumpkin (D2D), Thanksgiving Blessings (Printworks)
Paper - Pumpkin Pie (American Crafts), Amber Autumn (DCWV)
Coloring - Copics
Misc - 1 1/2" circle and scallop punch (SU!), Just My Type EF (Provo Craft)
