Simple & Elegant Thanksgiving Card

Hello everyone,
I have decided to make a Thanksgiving Card that would have color palette from House of Cards September Challenge and the sketch from Mojo Monday #361

Here is my card:


I used patterned cardstock from the Paper Studio Stack Tattered and Worn and DCWV The Rustic stack. I used Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares to die cut my layers and embellished the card with an elegant bow and jumbo crystal.


I created three layers using different thickness adhesive foam so everything looks stacked up...


One more look at the card...

And here is the photo and palette from House of Cards:


And the sketch from Mojo Monday Challenge #361


I hope you enjoyed this post.
Have a great day and thanks for stopping by...
