Bountiful Season - Graciellie Design

The temperatures in NW Georgia are finally beginning to cool some.  It has felt like Fall for the past few days.  The nights are crisp and the days warm.  It makes me start thinking of Thanksgiving and Fall festivals. 

 In that frame of mind, I set about creating this card from a Graciellie Design image called Bountiful Season.  This image belongs to a digital stamp bundle calleld Thankful Words.  It is on sale in Gracie's Etsy Store for 15% off.  The bundle contains 4 lovely stamp sets.  See below.

Card Supplies:
4.25 X 5.5" card base
Image/Sentiment - Bountiful Season
Orange Foil
Border Embossing Folder from Anna Griffin Summer/Fall Folders
Copics
Cardstock from my stash
Ribbon
Yellow Seed Beads

The first thing I did was foil the image and sentiment with the orange foil.  That didn't present with enough color so I colored the image with Copics.  Coloring over the foil with Copics did not alter the foil.  After embossing the edge of the purple cardstock, I assembled the card as you see it. The last step was to apply the seed beads to the glue I had applied in the center of the flower.

This picture shows the foiling better.  

This is the "Thankful Words" Digital Stamp Bundle.

Crafty Cardmakers - Autumn

Last week we were struggling through Hurricane Irrma, although it wasn't bad here.  My heart goes out to those affected by this terrible storm. The temperatures certainly cooled a lot and it felt like Fall.  I'm not sure if I'm ready for weather that cool just yet.  

This week at Crafty Cardmakers our theme is Autumn.  So I pulled out some fall colored cardstock and came up with this card.

Card Supplies:

Harvest Blessings - this is a Cricut Design Space file.  I cut it from 2 different rust colored pieces of cardstock.

Anna Griffin Summer/Fall embossing folders - The 6" square card base was embossed with one of the folders and the matching border folder.

Stickles - gold was applied to the "Blessings"

I like how this turned out.  The hardest part was getting the two layers away from the cardstock without tearing them up.

Thank you for visiting with me today.  Thank you for your lovely comments.

God Bless You!!! Peggy
