Give Thanks

A new challenge theme starts today at 
The Sisterhood of Crafters
and the theme was chosen by our 'sistah' Birgit.
She has chosen 'GIVE THANKS', rather perfect for
November don't you think? 

I started with a brown card base for my card,
getting me out of the ordinary white card stock I usually use.

I stenciled an Altenew stencil 'Castle Motifs' with
Altenew ink Vanilla Cream.

The image is Altenew Autumn Bounty as is the die
I used to cut it with.
The sentiment is from the same set and stamped with
Altenew ink Almond Butter.

The image was colored in with various Copics!


I invite you to visit The Sisterhood and see all the pretty
and amazing creations from my 'sistahs' and while
there why don't you join in with us!!!

Entering the following challenges:
Crafting Happiness Challenge .... Thankful for November 
Crafty Gals Corner .... Thank you/Thankful
Simon Says Wednesday Challenge .... Thanks/Thanksgiving
The Card Concept .... Beautiful Bounty
(I was inspired by the theme and the clean and layered design)

More and more I'm loving a stamp and die combo. Many of the dies are ridiculously over priced, but I keep an eye out for the good ones. This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the stamp with your pretty coloring, and it looks lovely set against the stenciled background. You've been having lots of fun with stencils. Between stencils, other background techniques, and patterned papers I don't know what to do next!

I've just come from Vickie's soft coloured card to your big bold colourful pumpkin that looks amazing hiding behind those pretty flowers. Lovely stenciled background to show it off nicely Diane.
