This week at
Cardz TV Stamps Mary asked the DT to create a Thanksgiving card with the theme I'm so Thanksful. There is really no way to say how blessed I am and all the things I'm thankful for--So Thankful! I could probably fill a whole ream of paper listing all the things I'm grateful for. One of the things I am most grateful for is my friendship with Mary and the privilege of designing with her Cardz TV Stamps. For my card today I used the Thankful for You Stamp Set. Sometimes when I'm making cards I think nothing should be more prominent than the sentiment. A lot of times the embellishments kind of take over. Sometimes less is more as the saying goes. My base card is a 4" square of kraft cardstock topped with a 3.75" square of patterned paper from the Simple Stories 6x6 Harvest Lane stack. I used a scrap from the same stack for the dark strip behind the sentiment frame. The frame was cut and printed with my Cricut Imagine using the Imagine More cartridge. Then I centered the So Thankful sentiment and stamped it with Momento Rich Cocoa ink.

This is a beautiful card Jeri and like you sometimes the sentiment should be the focus-you pattern paper is awesome and I love that it lets the sentiment be the focus, while looking oh so good in the background. Well done my friend!
So pretty! I really like the patterned paper you used. Great job!
