You may have started here or arrived from Kate’s Paper Creations by Kate Creasey, you will find a blog list at the end of this post so you can check out all of the Design Team’s projects
We don’t have Thanksgiving here in the UK, so I opted for a seasonal Thank You card that features the new Color Me Happy images with the Stampin’ Blends amongst other current Stampin’ Up! products
I stamped the bird and flowers on Whisper White with Tuxedo Black Memento then coloured with the Blends before fussy cutting using Paper Snips. These alcohol markers are easy to use and works well together!
I also used the Blends on the Flourish die cuts of Wood Texture DSP , Fresh Florals DSP and the Natural Gold Natural Trim Ribbon
I added texture to the background with the Embossing Paste and diamond design from the Pattern Party Decorative Masks
I wanted the bird to stand out more and pop against the flowers so I used the Leaf Punch on Vellum as well as Soft Suede cardstock which was also embossed in copper before adding the Linen Thread loops underneath
To finish off the design, I gold embossed the sentiment from Painted Harvest Set on black card

Jay I love that even though you don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK you were able to come up with such a wonderful project that reflects the sentiment. Beautiful. Looks like you're really working those blends because your images are vivid and stunning. I liked the velum leaves and the crease you added to the center of them to give them a bit more lift. Your background DSP and stencil are also great contributors to the wonder of this card. Thanks for sharing your talents.
