Thanksgiving Place Card by Nancy

Hello, everyone! It's Nancy back with you today!

I have another project share combining beautiful foiled papers with Joy Clair Stamps!

With Thanksgiving fast approaching, in less than a month here in Canada,
I thought I would share a fun place card idea.

These cards would be lovely decorating the table.
There is a spot left right above the "Thankful" to add a name.
This could easily be done with a marker.

Here's how I did it:

Materials Used:

Rinea Autumn Foiled Paper Variety Pack;

Rinea Metallics Foiled Paper Variety Pack;

Emerald/Emerald Starstruck Foiled Paper;

Gold/Gold Starstruck Foiled Paper;

Copper/Copper Starstruck Foiled Paper;

Mocha/Mocha Starstruck Foiled Paper;

Joy Clair Stamp - Thankful and Blessed;

Imagine Crafts - StazOn Ink - Piano Black;

Stamp Positioning Took;

Tiny Scissors.

1. I began by doing all my stamping on a variety of foiled papers. I did some extra stamping while I was at it - for future projects.  

2. Using my tiny scissors, I fussy cut the sunflower images out. One flower from Gold/Gold Starstruck Foiled Paper, one flower from Copper/Copper Starstruck Foiled Paper, one stem from Emerald/Emerald Starstruck Foiled Paper, and one flower center from Mocha/Mocha Starstruck Foiled Paper. 

3. Then I cut a piece of the Mocha/Mocha Starstruck Foiled Paper measuring 4 x 5, and a piece of the Copper/Gold Glossy Foiled Paper measuring 3 3/4 x 4 3/4. 

4. I scored down the center of each piece.

5. Using the StazOn ink and a stamp positioning tool, I stamped the sentiments on each side of the Copper/Gold Glossy Foiled Paper.

6. I adhered these two layers together, lining up the scoreline.

7. I adhered the sunflower in place on one side of the place card. First, the copper flower, then I added the gold flower with a little piece of foam tape. I added the stem, tucking it under the copper flower, with a little piece of foam tape behind the leaf. Finally, I added the flower center.

8. I fluffed up the flower petals to give it some extra dimension.

Here's the stamping on the other side:

It's the perfect Scripture verse for a Thanksgiving Place Card!
Then you can send the card home with your guest,
as a reminder to always be Thankful! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!

I'll be back again soon with a new Rinea project!
