SOS #77 - Thanks or Thanksgiving

Happy Tuesday! It's time for a new challenge over at Shopping Our Stash. This week we ask you to make a Thanks or Thanksgiving card. Couldn't be easier!

For my card I went 100% with stuff laying on my desk:

Yes, 100% (except for the card base.) The panel with dots of Liquid Pearls was inspired by a card from the Online Card Classes Holiday Card Workshop. That's right, I took a Holiday Card Workshop even though I rarely make holiday cards. That's because the techniques and ideas can be use for any card, not just for the holidays. I love those classes.

I used lots of tiny dots of Glossy Accents to stick down the die-cut panel. I tried lots of other things and that one seemed to work the best. The striped papers were out on my desk from this card, so I opened and used my MFT Postage Stamp edge die on a piece of it. I trimmed off a sliver to place beneath the die-cut panel.

The flower parts were out on my desk, left over from this card. I actually used an eyelet for the center, then filled it with Liquid Pearls. The sentiment was out on my desk, too. The Kraft panel was from my recently-organized remnant box. Stuff is amazingly easy to find, now!

Now it's YOUR turn! Go into your stash and make a Thanks or Thanksgiving card, then come back to Shopping Our Stash and link us up so we can see what you've made!

Thanks for stopping by!

Products used but not linked below: Bazzill white card stock, misc Kraft and white card stock, Making Memories white eyelets.

  8. Liquid pearls! I've been playing with those a TON lately. It might be because I just got all the colors. So fun!
