Good Morning!
Are you ready for the final day of Sneak Peeks??? I'm not so I am going to have another peek to share with you this afternoon so stay tuned!!
Today we are peeking Verve's BRAND NEW stamp set called Bountiful Harvest! Oh my gosh are you going to LOVE this set! As with ALL of Julee's sets, this one has beautiful Fall images and AWESOME sentiments in many different sizes and fonts! Oh and I should probably mention that there are 27 stamps included in this set!! I only used one so you will have to go to one of the other Diva's blogs to get a better idea of what is included in the set!!! LOLOL!!!
Here are my Thanksgiving placecards ~
These are both done the same except for some colors and of course the little rhinestones on my daughters! LOL!! I used my scalloped circle Nesties to make the placecard stand and to mount the Bo Bunny decorative paper on. I colored the turkeys, from Verve's BRAND NEW Bountiful Blessings set, using my Copics after I stamped them on Select White using Cocoa Memento ink. I stamped the image a second time, again using Cocoa Memento ink, cut out the turkeys head and then mounted it on top of the first stamped image using dimensionals. The names were printed from the computer on Vintage Cream CS and then punched out using my small oval punch. I also cut a second set of feet because I wanted to mount the feet on the name card.
Here is a closer look at Mary's placecard ~
Here is a look from the side that shows the dimension ~
Here is a look at the back ~
These were really easy to make and please don't hesitate to ask should you have any questions!
Don't forget that tonight, at 11:59pm (Mountain Time) is the deadline to get your entries in for Julee's World Card Making Day& NEW release challenges! HERE is the link!

I would want a place at your table with these placecards. They are great. Never had placecards at my table, but maybe I will this year. Seems like it would be a treat.

What a nice thing to do for the holidays Lynda - making such intricate and personalized place cards for everyone at the table - and they can keep them and scrapbook them afterwards! It must be nice to have a big enough family that you get to use placecards, it is just me and my husband and our puppy, LOL.
