Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends, and happy Thursday to all of you! I am here today with an ultra clean and simple Stamp Simply Thanksgiving Day card.
This sheet of beautiful Wonderful Autumn designer paper, with its growth ring design, seemed a perfect match for the sentiment, "Count Your Blessings!" The sentiment peeks through a circular opening cut along the lines of the growth rings, with rich bronze matting paper and Delicata ink reflecting the lovely colors of the print.
I thought this paper was simply too gorgeous to cover up, hence the clean, uncluttered design. I debated adding a ribbon (it would be beautiful with one of our beige/pink variegated silks), and indeed I would have if this had been a top-folding card (where I could've positioned it in the upper right corner), but this side-folding card looked better without it.
Inside there is another sentiment stamped on a strip of the same designer paper, with a shock of wheat accenting the opposite corner.
The simplicity of the layout, the shimmering bronze ink and metallic paper give the card a subtle elegance.
