Thanksgiving Gift Card Holders

 These were built around this printed papers I found in my stash, I knew that I needed something on the A2 size as the place we buy Turkey Thanksgiving gift cards from sells them on post card type paper now rather than just the card. So, I cut up the plaid and word prints, found this orange cardstock and pushed them around on the table for a week or so. and I kept thinking maybe pumpkins maybe leaves. ( I've done leaves a lot over the years) so, I found this Pretty Pink Posh elegant Pumpkins die in the stash and It had not been played with before so, to keep some of the white I decided to cut it from some Artist loft (cheap) watercolor paper. 

And the very first one did not instantly fall apart when I removed it from the die so I decided to tape up the backside of it and keep it as an embedded die, cut a couple more and did the same thing with a few rounds of Daniel Smith watercolors over the top. 

I had some thoughts about leaving no words on the front. ( the inside has the waffle flower Happy Thanksgiving from their set that looks like Farm House font words) mind went blank. but, one of the card front layers I decided it was crooked, lifted it up (so of course the plaid paper ripped) at this point you know all three cards were nearly done so, out came the tin of previously diecut tiny tags and I found this Just for you ( it has to be SU but, who knows what set off hand) and layered those in the same general area where I had the one card rip. I am currently overthinking that idea but, I am also running out of time to come up with some other idea so, I think these are going to stand as is. 

I am really liking this die like this on watercolor paper all taped together and I think I just may do a few more of these while I have everything out. That's about it from me, hope you are doing well. Thanks for stopping by.
