Wonderfall and Day of Gratitude Thanksgiving Card for FMS#51

Hi stamping friends, I hope you are having a blessed Sunday. I guess I am going to be forced to go back to the doctor. I can't believe it. I keep hacking and spitting up crap and I don't seem to be getting better. GRRR! It sure is Fall in the air and is down right a beautiful but chilly day. Crisp to say the least. I went to church but didn't even take communion because I figured I might choke and sure didn't want to spread my bad germs drinking the blood  or wine. After church I dropped off some of the Salsa Verde to my BFF because they weren't at church. She wasn't home so I left it with her husband. Then I came home and fixed myself a big breakfast and then started my laundry. It is a beautiful day and I think I will take a nice walk this afternoon. 

Here is a card I made for the Freshly Made Sketch this week. I used the Wonderfall and Day of Gratitude set and made a Thanksgiving card so when the time comes I will be ready. I better start  working on Halloween cards too. I thought this card turned out pretty, don't you? I love the colors in that Orchard Harvest DSP. Tee Hee Hee, I just grabbed a Kleenex and I love the box so may have to make a card in those colors again for my own color challenge. Okay I know I must have to much mucus and snot in my head that I got off track. Sorry! I think most of the stuff on my card is explanatory but I will tell you how I made my tag. I stamped the Happy Thanksgiving from the Teeny Tiny Wishes and stuck the end through the bottom of the Ticket Duo Builder Punch and punched the end. Then sponged the edges with Island Indigo ink. Then I stamped another leaf from the Day of Gratitude set and fussy cut around it and popped it up in my card for some more dimension.

Here are the details:
Stamp Sets: Wonderfall, Day Of Gratitude, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Card Stock: Island Indigo, Naturals Ivory, Orchard Harvest DSP
Inks: Island Indigo, Cajun Craze, More Mustard, Lucky Limeade
Tools: Big Shot, Argyle Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Finishing Touches Edgelits, Window Frames Collection Framelits, Essestials Paper Piercing Pack, Ticket Duo Builder Punch, Sponge, Dimensionals. 
I hope you will have a lovely rest of the weekend and bless you for stopping by today. Let me know if you have questions on my card. Hugs, Bev

Wonderfall Thanksgiving Card ssc75 Challenge

Hi stamping friends and thank God it is Friday. For this being a short work week it sure was long. I had the strangest thing happen to me yesterday. I had to work all week this week which is rare but with needing 3 new tires since August 1st I need the money. I was feeling fine yesterday but all of a sudden I felt really bad and ran to the bathroom thinking I was going to puke. I couldn't so came back up to the front of the store and then it came again and I ended up running over to the big garbage container and puked my guts out. Yes real nice puking my guts out as people are coming in and out of the store. I don't know what it was but I ended up comping home by 1:30 and came home and put my PJ's on and I went to bed. I slept for a while and of course didn't have any 7-UP or crackers here so didn't have much. I felt better though when I got up and then I knew I had ground beef that I wanted to make some stuffed peppers with and make some taco meat with the rest of it. I did get that done last night and ended up eating a small one late last night. I felt better and went to work and surprised every one that was there yesterday as they thought I must really be sick. I sure am not sure what it was but I am over it. I went to my BFF's to pick up tomatoes but they all aren't ripe so I can make for more salsa and stewed tomatoes.

So on to my card. I used the Wonderfall Stamp set  for the leaves and the greeting is from the Day of Gratitude stamp set. My layout is from the the Sketchbook Saturday Challenge. My base card stock is Cajun Craze and Naturals Ivory. I used the Orchard Harvest DSP and used Lucky Limeade, Island Indigo, Raspberry Ripple for the colors of my leaves and then textured each one with almost matching embossing folders. They were Perfect Polka Dots, Woodgrain, and the Square Lattice Embossing Folders. 

Here are the details: 
Stamp Sets: Wonderfall, Day of Gratitude
Card Stock: Cajun Craze, Naturals Ivory, Orchard Harvest DSP
Inks: Cajun Craze, Lucky Limeade, Island Indigo, Raspberry Ripple
Tools: Autumn Accents Bigz Die, Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder, Brushed Bronze Designer Buttons, Baker's Twine, Linen Thread.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a lovely weekend. Hugs, Bev
