Give Thanks with a Gorgeous Textured Thanksgiving Card

Welcome back, crafting friends! Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and today I’m sharing a warm and cozy card that is perfect for spreading gratitude this season. Featuring the lovely Thanks & Giving stamp set, this design brings together rich autumn colors and incredible depth that will make anyone feel special when they open it.

We’ re diving into a fantastic design today using Very Vanilla and Crumb Cake cardstocks as our classic, neutral base. For those vibrant fall focal points, I used a stunning combination of Crushed Curry, Early Espresso, Pumpkin Pie, and Crumb Cake two-tone cardstock to create my trio of festive acorns. A double bow with Linen Thread adds a touch of down-home rustic charm. One of the highlights of this card is the stunning background, which features the Textured Tree Ring embossing folder, It gives the perfect woodland backdrop to our autumn harvest theme. A tri of Natural Matte Dots complete my project.

This card features the paper-piecing technique. If you haven’t tried it yet, this technique works best with outline stamps and is a super easy technique to master. Here is exactly how I built the cute little autumn acorns:

I first stamped the full acorns onto a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock.
Next, I stamped the bottom section of the acorns onto Crushed Curry, Crumb Cake and Pumpkin Pie two-tone cardstocks.
Then, I stamped the textured top acorn section onto Early Espresso two-tone cardstock.
From there, I got real busy fussy cutting everything out to attach the colorful pieces directly over my original Very Vanilla acorns.
