Thankful for All Good Things!

Wow! Can you believe that it is only 13 more days until Thanksgiving and 41 until Christmas. Now is the time to start a Journal of Gratitude and write down at least 10 things a day that you are thankful for! What a wonderful way to celebrate all the blessings we have received this year, despite the many set backs.

And of course we offer prayer for those suffering physically, mentally and/or financially! With gratitude on my mind, I just want to say how much I truly appreciate all my customers, followers and stamping friends. Sending virtual hugs to wherever you may be!

With that being said, I could not resist a fall Thank you card. I decided to combine the Country Home stamp set from the annual catalog with the new Beautiful Autumn Bundle from the August – December mini. If you have not purchased this bundle, there is still time. Don’t forget to use the host code: 4SFDFVEX. If your order is $150 or more, skip the code so that you can enjoy the Stampin’ Rewards! Let me know if you have any questions or issues.

I stated with a Misty Moonlight card base. Did you know Misty Moonlight is the number one selling color? I added a layer of Very Vanilla (4 x 5 1/4) and in Misty Moonlight stamped the country container in the lower right corner. The flowery images and wheat is from the Beautiful Autumn set and I masked the country container so it would look more realistic.

I used the water color painters to add some Misty Moonlight color to the canister. The greeting from the Beautiful Autumn set and is stamped in, you guessed it Misty Moonlight! And of’ course, I could not resist a matching bow. I used Mossy Meadow, Soft Suede and Early Expresso for the leaves and pinecones.

On the inside I added a 4 x 5 1/4″ piece of Very Vanilla and stamped the greeting in Misty Moonlight. The little birdie is from the Quite Curvy Bundle that was left over from yesterday’s project. I think it looks really sweet on top of the greeting. Click here if you missed yesterdays post.

Thanks for stopping by. Come on back tomorrow for some more crafting fun. Until then, be blessed! Feel free to leave a comment.
Stamping Hugs and Blessings, Renae
