Holiday Release: Thankful

The Poppystamps Blog Blitz is underway! Today, I'm sharing a Thanksgiving-themed card featuring one of the new dies.

To create the card, I cut the Leaf Silhouette out of six different colors of cardstock, as well as out of the card base panel color. Before cutting out the silhouette from the base panel, I ran it through my computer to print the sentiment.

I removed the silhouette and its pieces from the card panel, and backed the panel with a strip of blank label paper (purchased at an office supply store). I then inserted the dark brown outline and began filling it up with the various leaf colors. I attached the panel to a dark brown card base.

As part of the new release, Poppystamps is giving away a die featured in each post.  For a chance to win the Leaf Silhouette die, please leave a comment. 

For every post on the blog between July 1-15 we'll be giving away a die. Comment on any of the posts that you'd like to enter by Midnight US EST July 18.  Winners will be posted on the Poppystamps blog on July 20.
