Hey Pilgrim

I would like to share a card I made for the Thanksgiving season.


I used a Inkadinkado clear mini stamps set that I received in a swap I had participated in. I used various scraps of scrapbook paper which I inked all edges of paper, buttons, The Robin's Nest Dew Drop and some diecut leaves I had received in another swap I was in. 
 
 
I stamped the little pilgrim several times and then fussy cut each section out and then glued it to the pilgrim. It was tedious but I think it turned out super cute. 
 
You know It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving is almost here and Christmas is right around the corner??? Wow! Where has this year gone??? I want to share what I'm thankful for. I'm thankful for my family and friends. The fact that I can get out of bed each morning...I'm healthy. That I have cloths on my back, food and diet coke to eat and drink***smiles. I have a wonderful boyfriend, Greg, who can make me laugh, who is so laid back and don't get wound up about anything...other than Tennessee football games***more smiles...who is supportive and lets me be me. I love him with all my heart. I'm most thankful for the talent God gave me. The ability to create and see things in away that other people don't see. The ability to be able to sit down and pour all my heart and soul into something that I enjoy doing and someone actually "get" what I was trying to get across. My art has been my comfort in very dark times. It is my "happy place". You know God is the ultimate artist...He is the potter and we are the clay and He has shaped us into something beautifully made. I'm thankful for each and everyone of you. May your Thanksgiving be full of fellowship with family, friends and good food. {{{Hugs}}}
