Looking for an adorable Thanksgiving card idea? Check out this bright and bold turkey card that combines pumpkins and leaves for a festive design.
Today’s festive design comes from Donna who said, “This little turkey inspired me to build a colorful Thanksgiving scene filled with all the things I love about autumn.”. We adore the bold colors and are always looking for sweet card inspiration for Thanksgiving. She’s right, this Turkey is adorable and she colored him up so beautifully. Follow along as we give thanks with a bright and bold turkey card.
- I began the card with all of the die-cutting first. I used the 5334-01D Turkey Die with three different shades of brown cardstock.
- Next, I cut several autumn leaves using the 5510-06D Fall Leaves Die and a mix of rich, bold cardstock colors.
- I used the 5832-03D Large Pumpkins Die to cut the smaller pumpkin from orange cardstock.
- To add more greenery and texture, I cut the 5832-01D Fern Leaves Die from dark green cardstock.
- Once all the pieces were cut, I blended coordinating inks around the edges, to add some dimension to each piece.
- For the background, I cut the 5841D Twig Cover Die from white cardstock. I adhered it over a bright teal A2 sized panel then added it to a cardbase.
- After arranging the pumpkins, leaves, ferns, and turkey, I adhered everything to the card front with liquid adhesive.
- To finish the card, I stamped the sentiment from the 36057 Thank You Stamp Set and cut it out with the coordinating 36057D Thank You Die Set. I placed it beneath the turkey to complete my card.
