Thanks & Giving
It is Thursday and time for a new Create with Stamping Friends Challenge. This week it is a Color Challenge. The challenge colors for the week are Timid Tiger, Pool Party and Secret Sea.

Both Secret Sea and Timid Tiger are 2025-27 In Colors. I use Secret Sea a lot. I haven’t used Timid Tiger as much but I do really like this color combination.

This is a pretty straightforward card. The one thing I did that is a little different is I stamped the wreath in Timid Tiger ink on the Timid Tiger CS layer. I wanted more texture so I embossed the background using the Softly Woven EF. I like that it created texture and the stamped image is subtle. I like the look and will be trying this again with different images and embossing folders.
- Secret Sea CS card base 4-1/4″ x 11″.
- Timid Tiger CS layer 4″ x 5-1/4″ stamped with the wreath in Timid Tiger ink and embossed using the Softly Woven EF.
- Secret Sea CS 2-3/4″ x 2-3/4″.
- Basic White CS 2-5/8″ x 2-5/8″
- Thanks & Giving wreath inked in Secret Sea ink on Basic White CS and colored using Pool Party, Timid Tiger, and Secret Sea Stampin’ Blends Marker.
- Thanks & Giving sentiment inked with Secret Sea on Pool Party CS. There are no dies with this set so I fussy cut the banner.
- Three Secret Sea dots from the Dew Drops Embellishments.
- Secret Sea & Gold Ribbon tied in a bow.

Inside I stamped some pumpkins from the Thanks & Giving set and fussy cut them. Also a few stalks of wheat (?) from the set in Pool Party ink.
Be sure to check out what the rest of the Create with Stamping Friends design team created with these colors. As always thank you for stopping by!

Just a few days left to get this banner kit…FREE with your $65 order placed with me.
