Congratulations Queen Maxell (Bev J)!! What a grand gallery you have. I chose your card made with one of my favorite sets, Lovely as a Tree, and turned it into a Thanksgiving card. Your WT281, River Bark card served as my inspiration.
I changed colors and the sentiment and added some embellishments. I colored the tree with markers directly on the stamp. Stamped it onto the cardstock and then I added different shades of Stampin' Pastels to give the tree some "fall color."
Enjoy your time as Queen, Bev.
Great weekend to all.

Using the wooded BG as a partial layer really sets this card off. Your embellishments are superb for this Thanksgiving card - colors are perfect - 2 thumbs up here for Bev's reign!!

I see we both chose the same card to inspire us - and you have done an absolutely fabulous job. This is wonderful - love the double-punched edges. Your tree is gorgeous and I love that pretty gem leaf!! Great card!
