Autumn Thankful

      I think this is my first Thanksgiving card this year and the image is from Star Stampz, called Fall Girl Reading, which was provided by them for the Outlawz Progressive Challenge.  I reversed the image before printing it.

     I colored with water color paints, then used 2 different dies from Spellbinders to cut the image.  The larger piece was cut from golden yellow CS and placed behind the image piece itself.  I layered that onto a kraft card base.  The die cut was so detailed by itself that I didn't feel it was necessary to add any embellishments.  I printed the sentiment and cut it with an Avery Elle die, keeping the entire card as CAS as possible.

     Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie

Una tarjeta preciosa de relax otoñal leyendo jeje. Los troqueles son preciosos y como bien dices no necesitaban adornos añadidos porque ellos solitos ya daban un bonito efecto visual a toda la tarjeta.
Muchas gracias por participar en Craftlandia y acompañarnos en este reto.
Besote!!!!!
