Give Thanks

Turkey time is just around the corner!  I love Thanksgiving.  I love the food, family, friends and of course, everything that I have to be grateful for.

 

This card is the first one I've made in probably 2 years. 

I got an idea in my head and just whipped it out.  LOVE it when that happens!!

 

 

The stamp set is BRAND SPANKING NEW from Bella Creations!  The twine that the cute little turkey is sitting on is from Timeless Twine, and you can get it here for $2.25/spool!!!

 

Gobble till you wobble, friends.

xoxo, Amber

Not going to lie - I struggled with this challenge.  I thought I could do a cute spread with farm animals from Bug down on my parents farm, or with their cats, or or or.  I think I was overwhelmed with all of the choices that are available!  It took me finding this:

to finally decide what I was going to do.  Halloween = creepy crawly spiders!  PERFECT!

I made some 3x4 journaling cards - SUPER simple with washi tape, paper, and spider (found here):

The "Halloween" overlay can also be found here.

Here's the finished spread.  I love how simple yet festive it turned out.
