Hello all! I am posting on the
Trendy Twine blog today with this fall thank you card. I love how elegant fall colors and leaves can be and that was my vision for this card.
The patterned papers are from The Paper Studio's
Joyfall Gathering paper pack. Before adhering the decorative paper strip to the middle of the card, I wrapped
Orange Truffle Trendy Twine around it several times, then tied the ends into a bow. For the maple leaf focal point, I used a Cuttlebug die and embossing folder combo, then distressed it with
SB.com Leather ink. I wanted to make the leaf pop off the paper without occluding the view of the patterned papers, so I chose a patterned vellum, and die cut it with a GMD double sitched hexagon die. I also used that die set for the other hexagons on the card. The sentiment was stamped with
SB.com Orange Cream ink using the
APB Happy Thanksgiving stamp set. It was popped up with
foam tape. Adhering a trio of
Autumn Sequins with
Bearly Art precision glue was the finshing touch.
If you don't need a full spool of Orange Truffle Trendy Twine, check out the
Orange Truffle Sampler that includes 10 yards in length each of Totally Chocolate, Orange Truffle, and Totally Pumpkin Trendy Twines hand wound on a wooden clothespin for easy use and storage.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
