Feeling Stuffed






Hello KaDoodle Bug fans! DT Shirley here from Scrappy Sam Designs sharing a two page Thanksgiving layout with you. For my layout I used the adorable "Cutie KaToodles Turkey" and "Cutie KaToodles Pumpkin Turkey." I also used "Baking Goodies" for the pies.

MATERIALS LIST

Harvest House Stack from DCWV
cardstock in white, brown, yellow, red, orange, green, light green and aqua
Embosser (I used the Cuttlebug)
Cuttlebug embossing folders: Simple Flowers, Swiss Dots and James Set
Ribbon: Autumn Collection by Made for Retail, Inc.
Kid's Red letters from Provo Craft
Adhesive



I used the Harvest House papers for everything except my paper piecings. I added a 1 1/4 inch strip of orange print, and a 1/2 inch strip of leaf print to the bottom of each page. I then cut a 2 inch brown print wavy scalloped border and a 1 1/2 inch wavy border from the leaf print. I stacked the smaller border over the larger leaving a 3/8 inch strip of the brown print showing at the top 
and a little of the brown scallop showing below. I added one of these to the top of each page. 

Next, I made four mats at 4 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches using the brown print, the orange print (two orange and two brown), white cardstock and the pumpkin print. I added a 1/2 inch strip of the brown print on the left side of each mat and added the leaf print ribbon on top.

 



I made the CK Pumkin Turkey 5 3/4 inches and the CK Turkey 5 1/4 inches. I used the three embossing folders and my Cuttlebug to emboss the tail feathers. The pies were made 3 1/4 inches long and 4 inches. The title box measures 3 inches by 4 3/4 inches. I hand cut around the title which was first placed on yellow cardstock. That was mounted on the brown print and trimmed around leaving only 1/8 inch of the brown showing. This was mounted on the orange print, then on white.

I hope you enjoyed my project and I wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving! ~ KBD DT Shirley
