Bountiful Blessings...

Well, hello! 


Hope you're all doing well today! So sorry for my long silences between posts! Between the holidays coming up quickly and a myriad of other things, I just haven't had much motivation to craft these past couple of weeks! I know, I'm crazy.... but things should be looking up soon! I have some new Market Street Stamps coming my way and I can't wait to share some samples with you next week! Look forward to that!!


I'm here (and over at the Market Street Stamps blog) today to share a card I made to help celebrate one of my FAVORITE holidays, Thanksgiving! I can't even seem to THINK about Christmas until Thanksgiving is behind us and I think it's very important to take the time with your family and remember all of your blessings. And eat turkey, of course! 


I'm also playing along with the CAS-ual Fridays challenge this week- I feel in love with this sketch by the super talented Karen Baker! It's my go-to layout so I thought I'd give it a go! 





So I whipped up this card (hehe...) to help celebrate those "bountiful blessings" we all have in our lives!


Love, love, love this pumpkin from the Autumn Greetings set and I swear there has got be dozens of sentiment combinations to chose from! Love this font so I've been reaching for this set more and more lately. I created the center image by masking off the Rustic Ccream cardstock except for a rectangle in the center. Then, I stamped the mixer image from Comfort Food repeatedly to create my own pattern. I finished it off by using my ink blending tool and Antique Linen distress ink to highlight the patterned area. Really cool effect!

I hope you all have a FABULOUS Thanksgiving holiday- make sure you take some time to relax with your loved ones!
