Sparkle of the Season Thanksgiving Card

I recently offered a Fall/Thanksgiving Step-it Up Class.  Each participant made a basic/simple fall themed card and then took the same layout and "stepped-it" up.  In designing the cards for this class, the basic card was more of a challenge than I anticipated.  Remember the saying, less is more?  That's what I kept repeating in my head while I was designing cards for this class.    

This is the "basic" card layout using the Sparkle of the Season Bundle

Grateful Wreath_Basic

I took the same layout and  "stepped-it up" by adding the Bard 3D embossing folder, additional leaves, a pumpkin and Brushed Metallic Adhesive Dots.

Please leave a comment on which card you like best, the basic or "stepped-up" version.

Products used to make these cards can be purchased in my online store.  Just click on an image to shop.
