Gobble, gobble! |
I started with orange Basis cardstock, which just so happens to be on sale this month at CutCardStock.com. I also cut a 2" x 3.75" piece of Neenah Classic Crest in Solar White for the stamped image, pulled several scrap pieces of patterned paper from my stash, and broke out the new Subway Series: Holidays clear stamp set from Fresh Squeezed Stamps.

Next I cut strips of patterned paper in widths from .75" to 1" and adhered them to the side of my stamped image. Then I trimmed the end of each strip either diagonally or notched to create fun pennants or flags.
I edged this element with some Distress Ink in Antique Linen to give it a bit of an aged look and then adhered it to the front of the pocket. I folded the pocket's edges at the score marks and adhered it to the bottle tag.
For the photo I put a fall themed napkin into the pocket. When I give this to my hostess, I'll likely include a couple old fashioned candy sticks and maybe a fun recipe she can use after Thanksgiving dinner! This was an easy project to make and I think I'll use this same fun stamp image for a card to give to another lucky person this Thanksgiving. Here's to a safe, relaxing day filled with all the things written on the subway art stamped image! Have a happy Thanksgiving and ...gobble, gobble!
