Happy Thanksgiving!

Gobble Gobble!!! Happy Turkey Day and Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone filled their tummies with lots of yummy filling foods.  I had a little extra time after having dinner and checking out the wonderful sale at Michaels crafts.  Here's my newest fun card to make.  I "borrowed" the idea from a youtube video i saw so I can't say its completely my idea. 

 

Here is the Triple Time Stamping Card.

 

It is a really simple way to make a really gorgeous card.

I used my handy dandy cricut machine and cut 6 pieces of paper. You are also welcome to cut it with your paper cutter as well.  

For the Smiles card on top you need the following:

Cut 3 sizes of white cardstock:  2.25x3.25"; 3.25x4.50"; 4.25x5.50"

Cut 3 sizes of a patterned paper: 2.50x3.75"; 3.50x4.75"; 9x5.75"

 

I then layered the white cardstock one on top of the other, using temp tape (or any temp adhesive to hold the panels in place). Then i stamped using my Penny Black stamps (first i did the greeting in 2 shades to create a nice shadow then i used the leaves in a light green to add a little background. Then I stamped with embossing ink and used WOW Tea Garden Green powder for the big flowers)  (see photo below).  I started in the middle and made sure the next ones surrounded it even going off the page.  Once it was all embossed, I took the 3 layers apart and used it with the patterned cardstock. Alternating between the white cardstock and the patterned.  I used some Distressed Ink - Shabby Shutters to add a nice little shadow to stamped white cardstock. 

 

On the card below I cut the same sizes except instead of cutting the larger 9x5.75" piece I cut a half piece 4.50x5.75".  And then used in my layering a 5x6.5" precut card as the uppermost stamped layer. 

  I have a lot of fun with these cards and using the same dimensions you can make smaller cards or larger ones.  Happy Crafting Everyone!
