HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

I cannot believe how quickly the month has flown by, but I am thrilled to share that for our Bonus Day we have My Favorite Things as our final sponsor. 

I used stamps from MFT Fox & Friends for my final pair of tags.  I just love these little foxes and the cute village included in the set.

Please head over to the main post on Tracey's blog for more information on how you can join in on the 

fun and have a chance to win one of our prizes.  I hope you will take some time out of your Thanksgiving celebrations to create some tags for Christmas.

Some Cards I Made This Week

I had a fun and crafty week....I must admit to feeling more hopeful these days.  First up is a card inspired by this card by my friend Lindsey.  The idea came to me in the middle of the night as something I could do for the MFT Birthday Project Challenge: Balloons.  The next morning, I woke up and made my card.

I created a mask out of scrap computer paper and the MFT Skyline die, and used the MFT Big Balloon stencil with distress oxide ink blending.  After I sponged everything above the skyline, I removed the skyline mask and did a really faint bit of inking at the bottom of the balloon, just to make sure that the shape was recognizable as a balloon.  I am also entering this card at WWC297 and Seize the Birthday #203 with no topping.

Next up is this card I made with one of my recent Mama Elephant purchases, Oh Penguin Tree.  I just love how cute these penguins are, and when I saw the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch #398, I knew it would be the perfect stamp set to use.  I used colors from this week's Color Throwdown #619 and am also entering this card at The Daily Marker 11 Day Coloring Challenge.

I made this thank you card using rustic cream cardstock, a large Thank you die from Poppystamps and a bunch of woodland critters cut from fall colors of cardstock and various Whittle critters.  I am entering this card at the Poppystamps Challenge #74: Colors of Autumn, Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Thanks, The Card Concept #143 (my style is clean and layered and I was inspired by the thank theme as well as the fall colors in the inspiration photo), and Fusion: Thankful.

I used the dies from the MFT Fox & Friends kit to create this card, which uses the sketch  from the MFT Sketch Challenge #515.  I die cut everything out of white cardstock and used ink blending to color all the pieces.

Last up is a trio of cards I made inspired by a sentiment I found in an older PTI stamp set (Garden Grace)--and it seemed to capture the hopeful mood I have been in the last few days.  

I am entering both of these cards at The Flower Challenge #50: Use a Sentiment.

And, my final card with that sentiment I loved so much.  This one uses a die cut from In the Woods, and I masked off the edges and blended various shades of green distress inks.
