Welcome to InKing Royalty’s November Blog Hop! November is a time of gratitude and thanksgiving, and we’ve made projects that say “thanks!” to special people in our lives. We are excited to share our creations and hope you love them! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list at the base of this post.
My card for today says Thanks very clearly! However the flowers may not seem appropriate for November. Since the weather here in Georgia cannot seem to decide on a season, I am going along and using flowers for my Thanks.
Dies
This card is more about what Die sets than Stamp sets. So I am going to begin here with Dies. The background scalloped layer is cut using the Scalloped Contours Dies. I used the second largest one. Those scallops draw your eye in and show off more of the DSP behind it.
The sentiment is from the Amazing Thanks Dies. What better way to say Thanks than in large double layer script form! And since that is such a pretty and great statement piece on the card, I simply tucked in some flowers behind it.
The two flowers and bee , plus the added greenery, are cut using the Honeybee Blooms Dies. White showing around the die cuts sort of blend into the card because of the white swirls in the green DSP. And it is mimicked somewhat, but in reverse, with the Thanks.
Paper
Even though the flowers may not say November, my colors were chosen more to fit the time of year. Both of the sheets of DSP are from the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper. I particularly love the swirls in the Mossy Meadow layer, but the Crushed Curry tone on tone piece is a stand out!
Stamps
Last but not least is the Honeybee Home stamp set. The two flower stems and the bee are included in the set. They are stamped with Smoky Slate Ink and then colored using Stampin’ Blends. Having these items a bit less vibrant softens the card and allows the Thanks to pop a little more. And to finish the card I added a trio of Pearls scattered around the flowers.

A day late in my comments, Jackie. Love your card! I used the same ‘thanks’ but our cards couldn’t be more different. I love the floral scene you created. Stunning.
