Fall Thanksgiving Handmade Cards

Hi friends! Today is World Card Making Day ... time to celebrate the art of handmade cards, get creative, and prepare for the holiday season. I love creating things with colorful papers and fun embellishments, so when Doodlebug Design asked its team members to create a few cards, I was all in!

I created three and used the beautiful Farmhouse Collection. I chose white card stock as the base and decorated them with papers from the 6x6 pad. I love the smaller prints and those fresh autumn colors. These cards are sure to brighten someone's day!

 

To make the first one, I used the pretty Fall Floral pattern in the background and added diagonal stripes across the middle. Then, I embellished with die cuts from the Bits & Pieces and Chit Chat, and added the sweet little bees from the Puffy Icon Stickers. 

For the second card, I layered the pistachio print called Farmhouse and more white card stock. Then, I added vertical strips of pattern papers, enamel heart shape sprinkles at the bottom of each, and a sentinment from a 6x6 Country Quilt paper. But ... the real star of the show is the fabulous Doodle-pops called Turkey Time! He's so cute and colorful and adds lots of dimension to the card.  

My last card was made with colorful papers that I cut into smaller 1/2" pieces. I created a horizontal tiled look, leaving a bit of white space in between. The "thankful for you" is from the Chit Chat, the pumpkin piece is from the Bits & Pieces, and the little yellow flower is from the Cream of the Crop Shaker-pops. I added a few enamel shapes from the Fall Flurry sprinkles and finished it off with the scalloped This & That border sticker.

And there ya have it - 3 cards that are perfect for fall, Thanksgiving, and everyday. Surprise someone this season with a handmade card and let them know how thankful you are to have them in your life. 🧡
