It is getting time for my favorite time of year, Fall and it’s the perfect time to make a card to tell someone you are thankful for them. This card made with the Gathering Together suite from Stampin’ Up. It is very simple, yet elegant.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Early Expresso card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Gathering Together designer series paper (2025 September Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Gathering Moments stamp set and dies (2025 September Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Cajan Craze and Gold Dots (2025 September Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Cajan Craze ink (Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
From a piece of Early Expresso card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half. Cut a second piece to ¾” x 4 1/8”. From Basic Beige cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”, a second for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼” and a third piece measuring ½” x 4 1/8”. Then from the Gathering Together designer series paper find the piece that has the leaves in Crushed Curry, Cajan Craze and Early Expresso. Cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.
Adhere the leaf paper to the Basic Beige piece you cut to 4 1/8” x 5 ¼” and then adhere to the front of the Early Expresso card base. With the Gathering Moments stamp set find the “Thankful for you” greeting stamp and stamp toward the right side of your Basic Beige strip. Then adhere that strip to the Early Expresso strip and then to your card front about 2/3 of the way down. Add three of the Cajan Craze and Gold Dots to the left side of the strip in and even row.
For the inside of your card, take the last piece of Basic Beige and with your Cajan Craze ink and the smaller oak leaf stamp, stamp in the lower left corner.
This gives you a great card for anyone you are thankful to have in your life.
