Of course, I had to make some WORDart that was fitting for the season. I love Thanksgiving. It is one of my favorite holidays. I love being reminded of all the things I have to be thankful for. I try to be thankful every day, but it is nice to have a time to really focus on the little things that I tend to take for granted. Most of all, I am thankful for my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. How different my life would be if I didn’t know of His love and grace for me, if I hadn’t experienced His mercy and continue to experience it daily. He is so good, more than my words are able to express.
I made this card using the frame-it wordart below. I used the simplified version and printed it onto Rustic Cream cardstock. I trimmed the long side down to 5 1/4, distressed the edges and inked them with Antique Linen and Gathered Twigs distress ink. I then tied some brown twine around it and tied on a leaf button I had in my stash. I also very lightly sprayed some Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist on it. I sprayed it from a distance so it wouldn’t mess up the printed ink too much. It did splotch it just a bit, but since I was going for the distressed look I didn’t mind. I adhered it to my kraft card base and Wha-la—super quick and easy card. I tried so hard to get a picture that captured the shimmer from the glimmer mist, but I just couldn’t do it. It looks amazing in real life.
I also created one in an 8 x 10 size, printer ready. Download here.
For those of you looking to conserve printer ink, I made a simplified version. This is the one I used to make the card pictured above.
