Happy Thanksgiving in Gold

I’m sharing a Thanksgiving card in gold for today’s Team Stamp It’s October 2020 Blog Hop.

Happy Thanksgiving in Gold

Stampin’ Up!’s Gold Cards and Envelopes provided the inspiration for my card today. Find them on page 51 of the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog. You receive a package of 10 cards and coordinating metallic gold envelopes for $10. These Very Vanilla bases feature gold detailing around the edges, perfect to frame a photo or stamped image. They help you create quick and easy cards that are beautiful, too!

To make the leaf accents, I grabbed the leaf from the Rooted in Nature stamp set. I heat embossed the leaf with Gold Embossing Powder. With the sponge daubers, I then added different colors of ink to the embossed image. The colors used include: Crushed Curry, Blackberry Bliss, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie, and Old Olive. I wiped away any excess ink with a paper towel.

With the coordinating leaf die from the Nature’s Roots Dies, I die cut with the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine and adhered three leaves to the card with Glue Dots.

The sentiment comes from the Banner Year stamp set and is stamped with Blackberry Bliss. The Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels add some blingy accents.

Good Morning Magnolia

Stampin' Up! Good Morning Magnolia

Stampin’ Up! Good Morning Magnolia

Hello Stampers!

There’s so much to love in Stampin’ Up!’s new 2019-2020 annual Catalog that debuts June 4. The Magnolia Lane Suite is absolutely gorgeous and can be used for many occasions. In addition to the Enjoy Today sentiment used in today’s cards, other greetings include: Thanks, Thinking of You, Hello as well as some great inside verses.

I’ve used a Soft Suede base that measures 4 1/4 by 8 1/2 and folded. The Petal Pink panel is 4 1/8 x 4 1/8. I stamped the magnolia image in Soft Suede ink on to a piece of Whisper White card stock measuring 4 x 4. I applied Petal Pink ink to the flowers and Soft Sea Foam ink on the leaves with Stampin’ Sponges. I then cut the image into three equal pieces and attached them to the Petal Pink base. The sentiment in stamped in Soft Suede ink and trimmed with a snips. I sponged a bit of color onto the sentiment. The card is finished off with Linen Trim.

This suite also includes the Magnolia Memory Dies, the Magnolia 3D Embossing Folder, and the beautiful Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper. Look also for coordinating ribbon, Memories and More Card Pack and Specialty Cards and Envelopes and cork embellishments.

I can’t wait for the new catalog to go live June 4. If you don’t already have a demonstrator and want a catalog, message me and I’ll get one in the mail.

Happy stamping!

Kim
