Try It Tuesday~pumpkins and turkeys


Thanks for stopping by for Try It Tuesday!!!  I wanted to share with you this thankful card and how to make the pumpkins~all you need is a round shape or an oval shape. Either one will work. Use a punch or cut them out by hand.


Overlap one and two on three. Use Helmar Zap dots to add dimension.  Cut a piece of brown cardstock for the stem and add some leaves.  I didn't do this on these but you can also use bakers twine and make a vine by running your twine through Helmar's Acid free.


The inside of the card looks like this. I added a book mark to the corner of the card.  The book mark is a 3" x3" square , the sides folded in to make a point~like a tent.  Here is another example of the book marks are HERE~I know you all are just dying to see our turkey~living on a ranch and all.  We actually have two turkey's that hang around this time of year. 


The grands really like this guy but me I love this GUY~


This guy is going on 28 years!!! Have a great week and I'll see ya soon!!!
