THANKSGIVING INVITATION. THE CUTTLEBUGSPOT















































Good morning
Tuesday's are the new day for the Cuttlebugspot challenge and this week Nilda asked us to create a Thanksgiving Invitation.
I decided to go simple and hopefully elegant and as I eventually found my Cuttlebug maple laef cut and emboss die after much searching I thought  I would use it for my card!
The card is cut from ivory pearlescent ribbed card and measures approx 8 1/2"x4" and opens to the side. I cut and embossed two leaves, one in gold mirricard, one in a coppery brown glitter card. and added a brown satin bow. The strip across the middle is the same pearlescent layered on a strip of gold mirricard. The invitation words are computer generated, Thanksgiving is LD elegance and Invitation is Castellar. Another simple card and quick to make if you need to make a few!
Hop on over to the Cuttlebugspot and see the fabulous invites created by my DT sisters and join in too we love to see your work!
