Truly Grateful . . .

What are you thankful for?  This is one of the cards I designed for Stamp Club this month.  I really like the rich fall colors and soft subtle tones combined in this card.  Your eye is drawn directly to the sentiment, "Thankful for . . ."  I used that great Burlap Ribbon on this card to create texture and draw your eye down the center of the card.  Using Stampin' Up! Craft Scissors gives you a quick clean cut, even though it is a very thick ribbon.  The color was sponged on by dabbing, not rubbing, to give it texture but still keeping a softness to the otherwise bold colors. Oh how I LOVE FALL COLORS!

This card was inspired from a card made by Kathleen Wingerson at www.kathleenstamps.com.  Thanks for the inspiration, Kathleen!
