I used the Truly Grateful stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to create a quick thank you card to share with you today.  My card design was inspired by CAS(E) This Sketch #53 and the colors were inspired by The Paper Players #171.

I started by stamping the woodgrain image from the Truly Grateful stamp set (wood mount and clear mount) in Chocolate Chip ink on a Very Vanilla panel.

Then I colored the image of the wheat with my Stampin’ Write Markers, stamped it once on scrap paper then stamped it on the Very Vanilla panel.  I stamped the sentiment in Chocolate Chip ink on the card front using my Stamp-a-ma-jig for placement.  I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Chocolate Chip card stock with SNAIL then to a Crushed Curry card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added a Tangerine Tango Candy Dot from the Brights Candy Dots pack next to the sentiment and an acorn that I cut with the Autumn Accents Bigz Die from 1-1/4″ Burlap Ribbon (on sale this week for 25% off).  I used Sticky Strip to adhere the burlap die cut to the card front.

I colored and stamped the wheat image again on a Very Vanilla panel to complete the inside of the card.

The complete supply list, including card stock cuts, is at the very bottom of this post.

I spent almost all day yesterday at a Vendor Fair that benefitted my girl’s school.  I thought that I’d share a few pictures of my little table with you.  I had fun meeting people, spending the day introducing a few people to stamping and talking with a few veteran stampers.  I put up a display with some holiday cards and did two make and takes.

My little window table right by the front door.  Good in that I got to see everyone…bad in that it was in the 30’s here yesterday so I about froze every time someone opened the door!  I made my display from some old windows that I bought for $5 and a little chicken wire.

If you’re a Peanuts fan, you might recognize this as the “Charlie Brown Tree”.  I added a few ornaments but it still looked a little twiggy.  🙂  Some close-ups of the a few of the ornaments are below.

Hope that you enjoyed seeing my little table.  It was a great day yesterday…now I need to get back to some stamping!  🙂
