Creation Station: Harvest Party


Welcome to another session of Creation Station! This time our theme is "Harvest Party" and we're featuring the set "For All Things" from the Holiday catalog.

My first project is a Thanksgiving invitation. I used the beautiful "Color Me Autumn" DSP for the wrapper. The invitation is closed with a length of 7/8" Natural Cotton Ribbon.

(Stamp Set: Good Greetings (Hostess); Ink: Cajun Craze; Card Stock: Cajun Craze, Very Vanilla; DSP: Color Me Autumn; Accessories: 7/8" Natural Cotton Ribbon, Gold Baker's Twine, Oval and Scalloped Oval Punches)

I made a dangly tag using the "Good Greeting" hostess set. I tied the tag onto the ribbon with Gold Baker's Twine--and I unraveled the gold so the tendrils would stick out.

Inside the invitation, I used the "Holiday Invitation" set also from the Holiday catalog. Here's how I was able to line up the 3 individual photopolymer stamps onto one block.



After I stamped the invitation, I cut it using the Oval Accent Bigz Clear die and mounted it on Cajun Craze and Old Olive card stock.

Next up, is the table setting, using the same "Color Me Autumn" DSP and 7/8" Natural Cotton Ribbon. On the front, I used one of the cards from the "Seasonal Snapshot Project Life Card Collection," mounted on Cajun Craze and Old Olive card stock.

Finally, I made a Thanksgiving treat bag. I filled a 4" by 6" cellophane bag with autumn colored M&Ms and tied it with a length of Calypso Coral Seam Binding and added a bit of Gold Sequin Trim. The tag is made with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch and stamped in Calypso Coral and Old Olive (stamped off once) ink.
