Thankful Friends ready for Thanksgiving!

Welcome to today's blog post!

I'm back today with my 2nd Fall card....my stash is starting to grow lol.  I'm using this adorable stamp called Thankful Friends S210 from High Hopes Rubber Stamps.

I haven't got my dry glitter out in what seems like forever.  I really wanted to add a little bit of sparkle to this card.  I put 3 strips of Sookwang tape on my patterned paper & then burnished down some ultra fine glitter.  Burlap is a go to for me for masculine cards and anything I want to have a natural look.  This burlap is ribbon that I picked up at Winners a couple of years ago.

The patterned paper is from an old Bo Bunny Camping pad from a long way back....do you think I have a hoarding problem?  I sponged on Vintage Photo & Antique Linen onto a doily from the Dollar Store.  A little bit of texture never hurts.  I used 2 sentiments for this card, Gobble Gobble Border G090 & Happy Thanksgiving G089.

A rafter of turkeys!

Welcome to today's blog post!

I'm getting started on some Fall cards because I feel it sneaking up & it will be here before I'm ready for it.

I colored up both the Sm. Turkey P101 & the Lg. Turkey S211 from High Hopes.  I decided to color a few of each because I wanted some for my scrapbook pages as well as some Fall cards.  Then I got to thinking of the design for this card and I thought how about a small rafter of turkeys.  Originally I was going to use 5 but my card would have been huge so I paired that down to just 3.  I think it worked out quite well with just the 3.  I used the Happy Thanksgiving F203 sentiment, some ribbon & a few self adhesive enamel dots to finish it off.

Lg. Turkey - S211

Browns - E29, E27, E25, E23, E21, E31, E30

Red - R59, R29, R27

Grey - W6, W4, W2

Sm. Turkey - P101

Grey - W9, W7, W5, W3, W2, W1

Beige - E43, E42, E41

I hope today's card inspires you to get crafty!

Have a wonderful day!!

License to Drive....wait for it!!

Happy Thursday Everyone,

Today I'm sharing a fun layout I did of our son getting his license back in 2006.  If we had known what might lay ahead we may have asked him to wait till he was 21 before he got his license lol.  I remember a friend calling me a couple months after our son got his license asking if that was Orian in the newspaper this week.  There was an article about a teenage driver caught in a rural area where we live going way over the speed limit.  Of course my answer was "oh no couldn't be him, he would have told us".  Hmmmm...a few months later the mailman told us when he delivered the "Notice to Pay Fine".  I might add there were a few more after that....

The License to Drive die cut is available on the High Hopes website under the World of Die Cuts section HERE
