Today I'm sharing another Thanksgiving Card - with all of my Design Team obligations I didn't have room on the calendar to get them all posted before our Canadian Thanksgiving. But since the US Thanksgiving is still coming up, I figured I was ok to keep posting them. Soon though, I'll be all about sharing Christmas cards!
As I explained in the video with the wobbling skeleton card, every year when I am finished making my cards for that particular season, I gather up any embellishments I'd made but not used and put them in a baggie. Then I make new embellishments the next year instead of going through the old ones. This year I decided to go through that baggie and make good use out of some of those elements. The wreath & shadow and crow were in the baggie, likely Cricut cut many years ago. But since the wreath was too large for an A2 card it went into the baggie ... A2 cards were what I made for many years.
I pulled out one of these larger card and envelope sets from Michaels, some fall themed patterned paper and some of the embellishments from the September Paper Pumpkin kit. There was a TON of leaves and flowers and vines in there so I enjoyed using up some of them to decorate my wreath.
Below is the card inside, with a stamped sentiment and a few more elements from the baggie. I did good using up a bunch of things from that baggie this year!
