I used the Stampin’ Up! Season Of Chic stamp set and coordinating Texture Chic Memories & More Card Pack and Designer Series Paper to create a clean and simple fall thank you card.

My card design was inspired by the Fusion Sketch Challenge this week:

I started by adhering panels of Texture Chic DSP to the front of an Evening Evergreen card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I punched a small piece of Distressed Gold Specialty Paper with the Banners Pick A Punch and I adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the banner sticker from the Texture Chic Memories & More Card Pack to the card front and trimmed it even with the top of the card.  Then I added one of the gold leaf stickers from the Texture Chic Memories & More Card Pack over the banners.  I stamped the sentiment from the Season Of Chic stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Soft Succulent card stock, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Embossing Powders and then heat emboss it.

I cut the sentiment out with one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies.  I inked the leaf image from the Season Of Chic stamp set in Soft Succulent ink, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it over the sentiment die cut and then adhered the die cut sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added two Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots near the sentiment to finish the card front.

I adhered a strip of Texture Chic DSP to a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this project, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.
