Celebrate the beauty of fall with this Thanksgiving card featuring the Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper! The mix of autumn colors and patterns creates a warm, seasonal design that is perfect for sharing a little gratitude.
The card base is Early Espresso cardstock layered with Pecan Pie cardstock. The Autumn Opulence DSP was cut into 1 3/8" squares and arranged in a patchwork pattern across the card front. The sentiment from the Thanks & Giving stamp set was stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink, and Faux Glass Dots add a finishing touch.
Inside, I stamped a sentiment from the retired Amber Autumn stamp set in Blackberry Bliss ink. The pumpkin in the lower corner was fussy cut from the Autumn Opulence DSP using my Detail Scissors.
I love how the different patterns come together to create this cozy autumn card. It's a lovely way to send Thanksgiving wishes to someone special!
Happy stamping!

Welcome to today’s blog hop! I’m sharing two Fall/Thanksgiving cards made with the beautiful Autumn Opulence Designer Series Paper, both using a fun technique called a Shutter Card. The diagonal plaid strips frame a stitched diamond panel, so your focal image has a natural spotlight.
This card starts with a Blackberry Bliss cardstock base, and the rich purple pumpkin-and-wheat print from the Autumn Opulence DSP carries that deep color across the front. I fussy cut the pumpkin and autumn leaves from the DSP with my Detail Scissors and set them in the center of the blush diamond. The diamond was cut out using one of the Stylish Shapes dies. A few Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots add a little shine.
Inside, the sentiment is from the retired Amber Autumn stamp set, stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink. I tucked a pumpkin, also fussy cut from the DSP, into the bottom corner.
The second card also uses the Autumn Opulence DSP. The lighter cream print with painted pumpkins and purple blooms gives it a softer look. The floral arrangement is one of the die-cuts that come with the Autumn Opulence DSP, so there’s no cutting needed. “Give Thanks” from the Thanks & Giving stamp set sits above the flowers and has been stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink. Transparent Adhesive-Backed Dots finish the front.
The inside matches the first card except a Lost Lagoon cardstock panel was added to the Blackberry Bliss card base.
The Shutter Card looks harder to make than it is, and it’s a great way to show off a paper collection this pretty. Thanks for hopping along with me! Be sure to visit the next stop on the hop for more inspiration.
