Thanksgiving Card Making with Thanks & Giving 🦃🍂
It’s Fri-Yay, and today we’re getting crafty with a little Thanksgiving card-making fun! 🐝🍂
For today’s project, I’m playing with the Thanks & Giving stamp set and creating some handmade Thanksgiving cards that are perfect for sending a little happy mail to the people you’re thankful for.
I’m sharing several fun techniques in today’s video, so whether you love coloring, adding a little sparkle, or trying a new card fold, there’s something here for you!
🎨 Let’s Talk Coloring!
One of my favorite parts of card making is taking a stamped image and bringing it to life with color.
In today’s video, I’m showing you how I use Stampin’ Blends to color my images and add shading and dimension. I’m also sharing another fun way to add color and a little bit of shimmer using Shimmer Brushes. ✨
I love how just changing the way you color an image can give the same stamp a completely different look!
✨ Add a Little Shimmer
You know I love a little (or a lot!) of Bling! 😉✨
The Shimmer Brushes are such a fun way to add that extra touch of sparkle to your projects. They’re perfect when you want your card to catch the light without adding a lot of extra bulk.
💌 An Easy Fun Fold
And because I can never resist a fun fold, I’m also sharing an easy fun fold card in today’s video!
Fun folds are a great way to make your handmade cards feel a little extra special—and they don’t have to be complicated. This one is easy enough to recreate and would be a fun design to use for your Thanksgiving cards this year.
🦃 Make Some Thanksgiving Happy Mail!
Thanksgiving is such a wonderful reminder to pause and think about the people we’re thankful for. And what better way to let someone know you’re thinking of them than with a handmade card?!
So grab your Thanks & Giving stamp set, your favorite coloring tools, and let’s get crafty!
🎥 Watch today’s Fri-Yay Card Making video to see all of the techniques, coloring ideas, and the fun fold come together.
I hope it inspires you to create a few Thanksgiving cards of your own—and maybe send some happy mail to someone who could use a little reminder of how thankful you are for them. 💕🍂
