REVVING UP FOR THANKSGIVING

Tonight I did a few cards for Thanksgiving.  The first one uses my cute Thanksgiving stamp again, as well as using Kraft cardstock for the challenge at Made Especially for You.  I am also entering this in the Thanksgiving challenge at Dutch Dare.


The inside reads "Gobble til you Wobble" Happy Thanksgiving!

My next card uses the sketch from Waltzing Mouse which I rotated 1/4 turn clockwise and is also Thanksgiving themed for Paper Play challenge Thanks a Bunch using a stamp with bunches of leaves and flowers.

the sketch:

my card:

Tomorrow we are expecting another big storm.  I pray that this one will not cause the devastation of last week and will not hit the same areas as hard.  Please be safe.  Thanks for stopping by.  Come back again soon!

MADE ESPECIALLY FOR YOU

Today is a special day for me.  I was selected to be a guest designer over at Made Especially For You.  My challenge was to create a card using this sketch as my inspiration:


I started with a card base in a beautiful royal blue.  I selected some coordinating paper scraps which I cut to size and inked.  Then I went into my stash of embellishments and decided on some from the Birthday Bliss collection.  I selected some great sparkly diecuts and a cute little button.  It still needed something so I added a strip of Martha Stewart paper tape.  Here is the result:




Please be sure to stop over at Made Especially For You to see all the other samples from the DT and hopefully to make a card to enter the challenge for a super prize from this week's sponsor  Bugaboo Stamps! The winner will receive their choice of seven images (a $21 value) from their store.

Thanks so much to the team at Made Especially for You for selecting me and to all you viewers for stopping by.  Hope you have an awesome day!

Now let's begin Day 2 of our hop...

For my project today I have decided to create another card. What's October without Halloween? I started with some great Halloween papers and the cutest little ghosts. I decided I wanted to do a banner for the challenge over at Made Especially for You so I made a little flag for each ghost and added the letters to spell 'boo'. Then I added some gems and twine.

And here it is:
