Thankful for you



Hey y'all! Happy Sunday! :)

I'm just swinging on in, because we started a new challenge today at CAS on Sunday! And this time we're all about using the sketch below.


Here's what I came up with.


I wasn't too sure where this sketch was gonna take me. And after making my card, I thought 'Thanksgiving'?! lol...I'm a little late on that, but how about just a simple anytime thankful for you card? ;)

I recently bought a new woodgrain embossing folder (which I absolutely looove), I knew I wanted use it somewhere in my card. So, I went for a woodgrain tag. Hopefully, you can see it?!...After I went through some stashes of mine and came across some glittered leaves and thought 'yep, this will work'. Then, I used some distress inks and made a little banner. Added my sentiment and added some burlap twine to my tag. Once done, I called it good. Though, I did tinker around with the idea of adding a few gold sequins, but thought the leaf alone was enough?... ;)

Well, I hope you're ready to join us?!...We have Create a Smile sponsoring us for this challenge! Which if you join us, you'll have a chance at winning a 15$ voucher! How fun is that?!...Be sure to swing on over to CAS on Sunday and see all the DT creations! Hope to see you there! :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!
