SO VERY THANKFUL

MY CHARMS MADE TOP 5 AT CUPCAKE INSPIRATION... YAY


Good morning fellow bloggers, it is almost Thanksgiving and I am so very thankful for my life, family and friends, the fact that I have good health and a good job. My family is healthy and what more could I possibly ask for when there is so much unrest and unhappiness in the world. I will not be able to be with my family this year and this makes me sad, I know that I will be missed as they will. But, enough of the saddness. I have a new project today to share with you. It is my version of a cornicopia. At the Stampin' Dymonz Scrap Shack the charm swap for November was a Cornicopia, it could be the colors or the fruit and vegetables held in the cornicopia. I made mine as a reminder that I have an over abundance of love and things to be thankful for in my life.

The image on my tags is from Beccy Muir at Beccy's Place, she has the most wonderful images and they are free to anyone who wants to use them. All she ask is that you leave a comment and give her credit for her images when you use them. The tag is self is cute from a Spellbinders die cut. There are two colored pieces of Bazzill card stock layered onto a piece of black chipboard. The images were colored with copics E51, E53, E33, G12, G20, G24, G40, R29, R24, YR02, YR68. The beads and charms are from lots of places.

Well, that is it for this post, I hope that you have enjoyed your visit and I will be back soon with another post. I pray that you have a safe and happy Thanksgiving with your loved ones.

FALL IS STILL IN THE AIR

I am back with another post. This is a set of two cards and the images are from Beccy's Place by Beccy Muir. They were freebies. I think that she is a wonderful artist with lots of talent. She offers images and turtorials. I love to visit there. These images are perfect for fall and Thanksgiving.

I am going to use these just for note cards. I have a couple of friends that I need to contact and I think that these would be the perfect cards to do that with. A little about the cards. I used my cuttlebug to emboss them and used one of my new Tim Holtz embossing folders which is called Cracked set. I like these because they come two to a pack and they are just so different than the ones I already own. I plan to buy a couple more sets. One of the stickers are from Michaels and the other was from a set that I used for something else. I colored both images with my copics E53, E33, E51, E25, G20, G21, G24, Y04, Y17, Y38, Y08, Y32, Y36, YR61, YR65, YR14, YR15, R24, R27, R29. I used the yellow spica glitter pen on the sun flowers.
Yes, you know now comes the challenges. There are a lot of fall challenges going on right now. And though I have entered other cards into other challenges, there are still more to be had.
