Quick and Easy Thanksgiving Cards

 It's time to put the Thanksgiving cards in the mail! I made a few very quick Thanksgiving cards just to send to immediate family. With the help of an amazing Hero Arts plate, these cards came together so easily.

I started by stamping the Leaf Pattern (its one full stamp! not separated pieces!) on a white panel and embossing it with Gold Powder. I then ink blended with Reactive Inks in Fruit Punch, Creamsicle, Key Lime Fizz, and Lemon Drop. 

Then with a separate white cardstock panel I diecut the matching Fall Pattern Cover Plate. The plate lines up perfectly with the embossed leaves. 

To finish off the card I stamped the 'happy thanksgiving' sentiment from Holiday Season Messages. Since I stamped the sentiment in black ink, I added 3 black sequins to balance out the bold color.

Betterpress Snowflakes - 6 Cards!

 I finally used my BetterPress! Why did I let it sit in the box for so long?! I really thought the BetterPress was much more complicated than it really is. It's so so so easy. I realize now there are so many Spellbinders products used with these. Perfect timing with the Hero Arts acquisition! 

Some links used are affiliates - I purchased the majority of the items used today with my own funds. Thank you for shopping through my links to support rwkrafts!

These cards also use my Glimmer Hot Foil machine. I have 3 different color combos to share today (2 of each color). The BetterPress was used with that gorgeous Snowflake from Pinkfresh. These purple cards use Concord and 9th inks Lilac and Fig. I was surprised how well they worked with the Betterpress - just be sure to press very very lightly because those ink pads are juicy!

The cardstocks used for this card are Hero Arts Passion Flower and Plum. I dry embossed the Passion Flower with the Plaid Company embossing folder. Both pieces are die cut with the Postage Stamp Infinity Die.

Time for a blue color combo!

Every sentiment on these cards comes from the same glimmer foil set, Essential Christmas Glimmer Set. The blue and purple foil is from the Satin Pastels Foil collection. 

For some of the sentiments, I cut with a circle die, and the others I just fussy cut around the "edges" of the sentiment. The blue snowflakes use Hero Arts Reactive Inks in Splash, Blue Raspberry, and Blue Hawaii.

Alright, the last ones have an extra splash of bling! And pink!

I'm addicted to this pastel pink! The beautiful snowflakes were BetterPressed with C9 inks in Pink Lemonade and Watermelon. 

I used my Pinkfresh solid foil plate to also foil the negatives of each sentiment. I'm relieved they foiled so cleanly! And that gorgeous background hologram cardstock is from a previous Hero Arts kit.
