It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! At least in my office that is! We are coming up on that time of year where cards, tags, bows, boxes and bags are needed. Join me every week starting November 2nd for inspiration, ideas and holiday encouragement! I will be featuring a Holiday Suite every Saturday and a Bundle and/or Stamp Set through the week as well. Look for more information over the next few days for all the details (Facebook, Instagram and Website will have it all!).

Stamp It Group Thanksgiving Blog Hop

Thank you for joining me this evening for our Thanksgiving Theme Blog Hop! I am excited to have you here!

My name is Mikki Winebrenner and today I have a fun and fall card for you using Stampin Up’s Light the Year Bundle and Rustic Crate Stamp Set and Dies.

Thanksgiving is soon upon us! While deciding what to do for a Thanksgiving theme card I knew wanted to use the Light the Year Bundle. I’ve been obsessed with this bundle. There are so many ways to use it and I really wanted to find a way to incorporate it into todays card.

After some Pinterest searching and looking at different lantern/rustic decorations for fall, I decided to use the Rustic Crate Stamp and Dies to give the lanterns a fall look.

I added in the sunset background as it made sense to have lanterns lit at dusk. The way it all came together was better than I expected and I am excited to share it with you all.

Let’s dive on in to the details!

Measurements for the paper are sort of unique but pretty basic:

Pretty Peacock: 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” score at 4-1/4”, 2-1/2” x 4”, 4-1/4” x 4-1/4”

Basic White: 4” x 5-1/4”, 4” x 4”, scraps for stamping and sentiment

Scraps of Early Espresso and Smoky Slate

Ink colors that I used in this one are: Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry, Pebbled Path, Pretty Peacock and Whisper White. For the detail coloring I used Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow Stampin Blends Combo Packs.

THERE IS A FULL LIST OF PRODUCTS BELOW WITH LINKS AND PRODUCT NUMBERS

I do not have step by step for this card this time but I do have a Free Printable PDF file for you to print all the products and instructions to create this card. You can even change up the colors for more variety!

This card does have a different front style to it. I cut the card front in half (2-3/4” from the top) and attached my Deckled Circles to the space. I really like the unique look it gives.
