Hello, friends! I sure am grateful for a day of Thanksgiving. I may have said this before, but I don't think there could be a more perfect holiday to precede Christmas or to start the wrap up of a year. It is the nudge many of us need to reflect on the year and recognize the blessings held within.
I had these thoughts swirling as I created todays card. I pulled out Pretty Pink Posh's Stitched Pumpkins Dies and cut them in a variety of Concord & 9th colors. I used Nectar, Sorbet, Spiced Cider, Cayenne for the pumpkins and Pebble, Cobblestone and Papertrey Ink's Ocean Tides for the stems, vines, and leaves. The playful--even joyful--feel of this wonky stack of pumpkins makes me smile.
After creating my stack, I pulled out a shimmery piece of cardstock that I have had in my stash for years and cut it with theSlimline Scallop Frame Dies. I popped all the pumpkins up with dimensional foam, and then I embossed a sentiment fromWoodland Thanks onto the smallest Stitched Torn Rectangle Die. The final touch was a sprinkling ofivory pearls.
Many thanks for visiting today! I am grateful for you!
