Today's card is one of my favorites that I have made using the Artbooking cartridge. I have some regular A2 sized cards coming up, so don't think that I am going weird with my card sizes. Occasionally, it is fun to make a tall and skinny one!
For the stamped portion of this card I used a new stamp set that I absolutely love called Happy Autumn. It has it all: pretty flowers, a great font, and useful sentiments!

I used Cocoa, Hollyhock, and Colonial White cardstock. The pretty stripped ribbon is also from CTMH. |
I used Cocoa, Blush, Hollyhock, and Olive inks. |

Your card is so beautiful. I love how it's totally different and I agree it's fun to change things up and a tall card does allow for more creativity even to create a scene card. This stamp is awesome. You are no matter how you slice it are the "Queen of flowers" no matter how they are created & I'm proud to be a friend the "Queen Melanie".
What a pretty Thank you card.
I love the colors.
Thanks for sharing.

This is lovely! I want to try a long card now!
Thanks for showcasing the versatility of the Artbooking cartridge for card makers. I love this card and the stamp set, too! It is fun to see the longer cards once in a while. Your designs are always inspiring.
Just happen to need a Thank You card and this idea is perfect, Thanks again. rosebud114
Lovely card! I have to get this cart! Thanks for all of the wonderful projects you share with us.
This is gorgeous! You're right, it's nice once in a while to change the size of the card! I need to do that too.
This is such a pretty card! Love the colors!
Beautiful card! TFS!
Great card. I would assume it fits in a #10 envelope. Love the colors. Thanks for giving me a chance to win a great cartridge.
Beautiful card, and I'm always short on ideas for a long card, so thank for sharing as well as the awesone idea. Looking forward to seeing your smaller card ideas.
what a pretty card, love the pink tones, I keep to my regular card size myself, but now and then it is fun to mix it up.
Neat card and great color combos- love Hollyhock & Cocoa together.
I love that tall card and the colors are great.

Very pretty card. Love the soft colors. Thanks for all the inspiration.
This card is so beautiful and proves that you can make something much nicer then you could ever buy!
I love how you used the Artbooking Cartridge for the backdrop on your card! I never think to make a tall card... After seeing your card I'll have to try to be more creative with my card shapes :-)
Like the layering. The ribbon is a wonderful compliment to the card.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this card!!!
All the elements of this card, shapes, color, and techniques, all work great together to make on beautiful card.
Hi Melanie! I think this is one of MY favorite cards that you've done from this cartridge too! I love the shape of it as well as the details. I recently bought a We R Memory Keeper's Envelope board so now I'm not afraid of making cards that aren't A2 or 6x6 (for which I stock pre-made envelopes). I want to make up some sets of Thank You Notes for teacher friends of mine, and these would go together pretty quickly if I don't do too much stamping on them. Thanks for the inspiration! -- Susan Smith
neat card. When I read give thanks - I expected Thanksgiving, fall colors but love the card and the colors.
Every day you are convincing me to purchase this cartridge! I love this card and the color combination! Very precious! And the flower stamp goes perfectly! LOVE IT!!!
Your card is beautifully done!!! Love your design, especially!! Am really wanting this cartridge so bad! Am totally in awe of all the backgrounds and versatility!
I love this....I have my Artbooking but havent used it yet. May have to pull it out this weekend and try to make some cards. I know mine will not compare to yours but I sure can wish!
Very pretty--I like the background and the striped ribbon.
Only one word...NICE!
Love the non-tradtional "give thanks" colors...great layout as well.
The Give Thanks card is lovely. The ribbon really set it off.
