Squirrel Thanksgiving Card

Hello, everyone!  I can't believe Thanksgiving is around the corner.  Can you?  

This past week, the DT over at JoysLife.com has been featuring cards made with her wonderful stamps!  

When Cricut came out with Create A Critter2, I just HAD to have it! I love the images, especially this squirrel! 

He was the first thing I thought of when I saw this stamp.  It's from Joy's It's All Fall Puns set.  If you don't already have it, you can grab your own set here.

 

With all the holidays coming up, I think this says it all.  Our family usually has a large get together.  It's loud and fun!  

This card is 4.25" x 5.5".  I used Bazzill paper as the base.  Both yellow and brown background papers were printed with my Imagine from the Enjoy The Seasons cartridge.  The frame is one of the basic shapes on the Imagine and I filled it with the yellow pattern from Enjoy The Seasons. I added some glitter to both of the acorns to add some flair.

Well, I am the last post of the week for the Design Team.  We'll be taking off next week to be with our families. 

 I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving Tag

Hello, everyone! Today, I've got a tag for you  for Joy's Life's Design Team blog. 

 For this project, I decided to put my Cricut and Silhouette aside and just use my Cuttlebug. I got this wonderful die with leaves at my LSS for a steal! Glad I got to use it so soon after purchasing it. 

The fun saying comes from Joy's It's All Fall Puns set.  If you don't have yours yet, you can purchase it here.

I kept this tag simple and like how it came out. These would be easy to mass produce and attach to treat bags, or whatever goodies you come up with.  
 

And don't forget...

 coming this Monday, we'll be hosting a Tags & Bags hop starting at JoysLife.com.  Hope you can join us! 

Give Thanks Pumpkin

Hello!  Today for Joy's Life, I've got a 3D project for you!  For this week's post, I thought I'd make an amigurumi pumpkin and embellish it with one of Joy's wonderful stamps.

As you can see, this saying from Joy's It's All Fall Puns set goes perfect with my pumpkin. 

I love how it adds a special touch to the leaves.  If you don't have this wonderful rubber stamp set, you can get yours here.

 

I learned how to make amigurumi items by watching videos on YouTube.  Here's a link to one of the many helpful videos out there.   It's pretty simple thing to do.

  The leaves were cut with my Silhouette. I inked the  edges and stamped them with Joy's stamps. 

I think if I have time, I'm going to try to make these for my siblings and give them out on Thanksgiving!  

Thanks for stopping by!  I appreciate any comments you leave!  Hope you have a nice day.

Thanksgiving Card

This year I made a Tri-Shutter Card for my family for Thanksgiving. I had a great time designing this card and it gave me the opportunity to use several pieces of paper.

I am very thankful for my family. I've been blessed with a wonderful husband who is supportive of my hobbies.

This card has been submitted for the following challenges:
