Happy Thanksgiving

I love the amazing autumn stamp set, Truly Grateful.    I have to say one of my favorite parts of the stamp set is the wood background.   It is just beautiful.

Here are some tips and tricks to this card.   I cut the wheat in half and then put the Tags 4 You stamp set in the center.   This let me increase the length of the wheat and the impact to the card.    To keep the Burlap Ribbon folded in half in place, I made sure the rest of the embellishment it laid on top of was adhered to the card with Stampin' Dimensionals.
