Mix-It-UP! Monday Give More Thanks

Happy Monday My Blogger Friends!

Today is Mix It UP! Monday and I have an upgraded version of the card I shared with you yesterday.  I used the exact same product that was used to create yesterday's card ....... but added a couple additional products (found in the 2016-2017 Stampin' UP! Annual Catalog) to bring this card up to the next stamping level.

Here is my Spot Light Sunday card on the LEFT.....

And my Mix-It-UP! Monday card on the RIGHT.....

For my Mix-It-UP! Monday version of this card I kept the layout the same and upgraded the sentiment and the Early Espresso panel on the front of my card. 

I began by using the Woodgrain embossing folder on my Early Espresso panel.

Then I stamped my 'Suite Seasons' sentiment with VersaMark and Early Espresso ink and then quickly dipped it into Clear Embossing Powder.  All that was left to do for my sentiment was grab my Layering Ovals Framelits and die-cut my sentiment with one of the scallop ovals in this collection.

My three leafs were stamped and die-cut the same as yesterday's card.  I used Crushed Curry, Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive ink on my leafs.

And the last upgrade I made to this card was wrapping my Linen Thread around the Early Espresso panel and top it off with a 'Classy Designer Button' and creating a pretty bow for the top of my button. 

So there you have it friends......

Do you have a favorite?

Thanks for joining me today!  I'll be back tomorrow to share a 3-D Tuesday project with you ..... Hope you can make plans to stop back and join me for that share.  Keep Living Your Dream!
