30 Day Gratitude Challenge: Day 18

Good morning!  It's hard to believe this is the last weekend before the Christmas holidays are in full swing.  One of the things I love about some of our designer series paper is the artistic looking images that you can simply cut out with coordinating framelits for Paper Snips to make quick and easy elements for your projects.  For today's gratitude card I used some of the pumpkin images from the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper as inspiration for the card.

I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock.  I used some Crushed Curry cardstock as a mat for a strip of coordinating DSP from the same package.

I used the Big Shot and Stitched Shapes framelits to cut a large oval out of Crumb Cake cardstock as a mat for the greeting and tucked a couple of the pumpkin images on each side using dimensionals on all the pieces.  The greeting is from the Label of Love stamp set and was stamped in Early Espresso ink on Very Vanilla ink and then punched out with a 1 1/4" Circle Punch and attached with another dimensional.  The find touch was to tie a bow using the 1/4" Copper Trim, love this ribbon!!

By using the images from the DSP I was able to get images with a lot of detail without a lot of work, awesome!
