Supply List

white cardstock cut to 4x 2.5 inches (see step 1 for measurements)
stamps (Turkey Set)
water proof ink (I used Ranger’s Archival Ink in Sepia and Black)
color medium ( I used ZIG markers, and watercolor pencils)

Step 1. Mark card stock at 4 inch intervals, and then turn and mark at 2.5 inch intervals. (If using an 8.5 x 11 sheet, you will get 8 cards, if
using a 12x 12 sheet you will get 16 cards.

Step 2. Cut apart, and fold in half. (photo 1) Use a bone folder (or Popsicle stick) to get nice flat folds. 

Step 3. Stamp image on each half of the folded piece. Be sure to spin the card, so that the turkeys are head to head when laying flat.

Step 4. Stamp the sayings from the set inside the box (on ONE side only). Mix the sayings up, or choose only one for each card. ‘

Step 5. ADD COLOR!! Use any medium you prefer. I used markers and water color pencils so you could see what both looked like. Don’t forget
to ink the edges too!

Step 6. Carefully letter the names of your guests in the box you left empty.

Place the cards on your table with name facing the chair, and the Thanksgiving Wishes facing the middle of the table. Makes a wonderful
and festive addition to your Thanksgiving feast!
