You Are Incredible

Hello! Today, I have a card that uses the new Give Thanks Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground. It’s got beautiful autumnal colors and some turkeys! I omitted the turkeys for this card, but I used everything else. I love the warm colors it has.

I thought it would be fun to use a mandala in a mandala for this shaker card. I have the Incredible India stamp and die set from Erin Lee Creative, so that was my starting point. I colored the stamped image with Copics, and decided I wanted it centrally located on my card.

I decided to use Nuvo’s Glacier Paste in Golden Era across Sweet Sentiment‘s Mandala Stencil on a piece of brown cardstock. After it dried, I die cut the center out with the coordinating die from the Incredible India set. You can see in the photo above how pretty the Give Thanks Sparkle Blend is. I really love those rich, warm colors. I also die cut the “You are incredible” die from Erin Lee Creative (which I think is now sold out) in orange cardstock, and I added brown lowlights with a marker.

I love the shine that almost looks like foil, on this card. The Give Thanks Blend looks so cool in front of the colored mandala. I could see giving this card to anyone, and you can easily change the “feel” of it simply by changing the colors you use.
