Thanksgiving Table

thanksgiving table I love this image I got from Auntie Amy’s online shop. Hopefully I will get a chance to color it again before fall is over. The weather is beautiful here this week so I think we’ll have at least a couple more weeks of fall.

The DP is Debbie Mumm and I water colored, of course. I tied on some ribbon and some raffia, added a few buttons and we’ve got a card!!! I love water coloring these more detailed images. I kind of feel like I’m actually making a painting!

I used the sketch from Card Patterns; the challenge at Crafty Creations is thanksgiving; Creative Belli is raffia; 2 Red Bananas is red, yellow, orange and brown; and Gingersnaps Creations Random Redhead challenge is thankfulness.

I’m off to make my card for FBW and I’m going to try to get my Bee Crafty card made early for this Saturday. Plus I really want to participate in this blog hop for a little girl whose mother was tragically and randomly killed. They are doing a card drive for her to show her that people really do care!

That’s what I’ll be doing tonight, how ‘bout you?

Blessings,

Christine
