Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Amy’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Give Thanks”. We can interpret this however we want. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Wild Ferns Cling Stamp Set along with the Splendid Autumn 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper and Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder for my card today.

Start by embossing an Old Olive card front using the Distressed Tile EF. Adhere the embossed panel to an Old Olive card base using Liquid Glue.

Stamp the sentiment from the Wild Ferns stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the bottom of a Basic White panel. Emboss the panel using the Distressed Tile EF. Adhere 3 panels of Splendid Autumn DSP to the top of the embossed panel using Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered panel to a Highland Heather mat using Liquid Glue.

Color a length of White 1/4″ Diagonal Trim using the Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Marker. Wrap the trim around the layered panel and tie a knot. Adhere the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Purple Fine Shimmer Gems to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from the Wild Ferns stamp set in Old Olive Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the leaf image from the Wild Ferns stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the bottom of the panel. Adhere 2 strips of Splendid Autumn DSP to the top and bottom of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Highland Heather mat then to the inside of the Old Olive card base.

Finish the card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the leaf image from the Wild Ferns stamp set in Old Olive Ink on the envelope front. Adhere a strip of Splendid Autumn DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  Now that you’ve seen my card, let’s get on with the hop!  Click on the Next Blog button to move forward to Ann Louise’s project or click the Previous Blog button to move back to see the project that Amy created. Happy Hopping.
