This handmade Fall Thanks with the Gathering Moments Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!® is perfect for saying “thank you”. There’s something about autumn that makes us pause and reflect with gratitude. The crisp mornings, the cozy layers, and of course, the warm, rich colors of fall, are the perfect time to say “thanks.” This handmade thank you card captures all of that seasonal charm in one simple design. From acorns and oak leaves to the heartfelt “Many Thanks” sentiment, this project is an easy way to share your gratitude while enjoying the relaxing art of stamping.
This is the exact card we made during this week’s Coffee & a Card—our casual midweek craft break on Facebook where we chat, sip on our favorite beverage, and make something wonderful. And this card? It checks all the boxes: easy stamping, a cozy autumn color palette, and heartfelt details that make it extra special.

The Gathering Moments Stamp Set is a Distinktive set, which means each image has incredible built-in depth and texture, making it look like you spent hours stamping when really, it comes together in just minutes. The oak leaves and acorns practically jump off the page thanks to Stampin’ Up!’s Distinktive technology, and when paired with the earthy tones of Pecan Pie, Cajun Craze, and Mossy Meadow, you get a card that feels as warm as a fall afternoon.
Here’s what makes this project beginner-friendly but still satisfying for seasoned crafters:
- Simple layers: A background strip in Cajun Craze adds depth without overwhelming the card.
- All-over stamped design: No need to overthink placement—the scattered acorns, leaves, and berries create a perfectly rustic pattern.
- Beautiful Textured Notes Dies: add some unique stitching around the focal image, adding a tough of nature elegance. If you don’t have a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, you can simple cut the rectangles the sizes outlined in the Tutorial and no one will be the wiser.
- Quick sentiment block: A stitched rectangle for the “Many Thanks” greeting makes the words stand out without fuss.
One of my favorite things about this card is how flexible the design is. Change the sentiment, and you’ve got a cozy fall birthday card. Switch up the colors, and you can make it work for Thanksgiving, a simple hello, or even a masculine card.
