Create with Connie & Mary Saturday Blog Hop!

Hi Everyone and welcome to our Saturday Blog Hop at Create with Connie & Mary. We have an interesting theme today. We are all using a Christmas stamp set for a non-Christmas card. For my card I used the Christmas Pines stamp set to create a fall-themed thank you card:

Once all of my cardstock and stamped layers were glued in place, I snuck in a few of the Touches Of Nature Elements. So cute!

Here are the measurements for my layers:

• Card Base: Crushed Curry Cardstock 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″. Score at 4-1/4″ and fold.
• Layer #2: Cajun Craze Cardstock 5-1/4″ x 4″. 
• Layer #3: Whisper White Cardstock 5″ x 3-3/4″. 
• Stamp the two pine branch images in Cajun Craze Ink.
• Add the remaining stamped and cut layers and then glue the Touches Of Nature Elements in place. 
• The knot is from the Burlap Ribbon which I cut a few strands to achieve.
• The sentiment is stamped using Sahara Sand Ink.
