This sympathy card was the one card not made for Thanksgiving or birthday.
A few made for Autumn birthdays . . .
And the rest are all for Thanksgiving . . .
 |
| The background for this and the next were made using strips of coordinating paper scraps. A time- consuming technique, but a unique result -- no two cards look exactly alike, even when using the same materials. |
 |
| More strips of paper scraps, plus glitter pumpkin tape. |
MATERIALS:
Solid Paper: White, Timeless, Lap of Luxury (Core'Dinations)
Decorative Paper: "Harvest" collection (images) (Authentique), Sweater Weather (DCWV), Foil Foliage (Target)
LINKING TO: Thursday Thirteen

Wonderful!
I like the one with flowers the best, and the white turkey one is very appealing, too.
Hope you are having a great week!

Thanks, Lea! I confess, the one with the flowers is one of my faves, while the white turkey is one of my least faves. :D
Beautiful! So, do you start with old cards as the focal point image and frame them with your art?
Colleen: No old cards were used here. The images are from Authentique's "Harvest" collection, which I see I forgot to note under materials. Will be fixing that.
Those are truly lovely cards. I really enjoyed your Thursday Thirteen. Hard to pick a favorite but it would be the little girl with the Saying of, "Busy Hands make a Happy Heart". So true.
Happy Thanksgiving Heather.
I am always envious of your crafting abilities. I've been three months trying to knit a sweater, and so far it's not even a foot long. :-(
The old illustrations work really well with your color schemes. Nice.
Thanks, Kit!
Anita: Thank you. I'm sure you'll find your knitting rhythm if you just keep at it.
Alice: Thanks, for the most part I chose the matting/background paper to coordinate with the images.
They're all beautiful! Thank you for the lovely one you sent me. I got it over the weekend. <3
