Welcome back to another Inkin’ Krew blog hop!  Our very talented team is doing a blog hop featuring Stampin’ Up! products.  This month we are all creating projects with a “Giving Thanks” theme and I’m featuring the Amber Autumn stamp set bundle for my card.

My card design was inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #474.

I started by adhering a panel of patterned paper from the Autumn Toile DSP to the front of an Early Espresso card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I adhered other panels of Autumn Toile DSP to a panel of Early Espresso card stock with Stampin’ Seal.  I wrapped a strand of Early Espresso thread from the Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread Pack around the panel twice and tied a bow, then adhered the layered panel to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Amber Autumn stamp set in Early Espresso ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock and then cut it out with one of the Traditional Labels Dies.  I adhered the die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  I stamped the pumpkin image from the Amber Autumn stamp set in Early Espresso ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  Then I colored the images with Light and Dark Cajun Craze, Mossy Meadow, Crumb Cake and Darling Duckling Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I colored over the images with the Color Lifter to lighten the coloring a bit.

I cut the pumpkin image out with the coordinating Amber Autumn Dies and then adhered the die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I added two Streaked Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Amber Autumn stamp set in Early Espresso ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock and then added a strip of Amber Autumn DSP to finish the inside of the card.
