Set that Thanksgiving Day table and pull out the pumpkins

This week is all about the Thanksgiving Day meal, whatever it is you traditionally eat and we are still thinking about Pumpkins and Fall leaves so all of that goodness is part of my post today.

First up, super quick and easy and adorable placecards for the table. This image is from a set of Clear stamps by The Cat's Pajamas and when I saw it I just knew that that area in the tablecloth was perfect for the guest's names.

All I did was stamp the image with black ink and I embossed it with clear embossing powder only because that makes the black lines more intense. I added a very small amount of color with Copic markers but that wouldn't even be needed if you need the project to be quicker. I cut that piece out and then added it to a little folded piece of this wonderful patterned paper with foam tape for added dimension.

Next comes some pretty cute pumpkins on my CPS card for this week. The sponsor is DRS designs and I used this neat verse and outline pumpkins.

Since the pumpkins are an outline, I could stamp them on this patterned paper to give a little bit of a different look and then I also didn't have to color them in.

I did add some color to the leaves and then I coated them with the Aleene's Paper Glaze for an epoxy look.

And, I just have to share a couple more photos!

This is an amazing tree that was in a park in Medford, OR.

And this is a tree that was on a street that we drove down in Medford and I just had to stop and get out and take photos.

Thanks for visiting, Linda (lbpost)
