Saturday Sample: Leaves # 2 Die and Bright Blessings Wheel

Oct. 2010 autumn leaves card

For today's Saturday Sample, here's an autumn flavored card featuring Bright Blessings wheel and the Leaves #2 Die.  All month, I'm celebrating the Stampin' Up! Retired List by showing projects using Retired Products.  These products are only available through May 31st, and some are only available while supplies last.

I have used Bright Blessings wheel and Leaves #2 Die together for soooo many Thanksgiving projects!  They seem to just go together.  From handmade cards like this to table favors to teacher gifts to centerpieces to placecards to scrapbook pages, the possibilities just keep going!  But they are both incredibly versatile papercrafting tools on their own.  I've made Inspirational cards with some of the many great sayings on the Bright Blessings wheel.  I particularly like, "Blessings brighten when we count them" (because they do!) and "In everything give thanks" because it is a great snippet of scripture (1 Thessalonians 5:18).  And the Leaves #2 Die spans the seasons!  I especially love to texture the leaves with an embossing folder – as shown above – and scatter them on a table or across scrapbook pages.

Here's the supply list for the handmade card above.  All retiring products are denoted with an *
