Grateful Heart

 My next card for Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards challenge is for the letter G. I picked "grateful" for my G word.


This is a card for Thanksgiving. In the U.S. we celebrate in November. It's less than 2 weeks away. The image I used is from Beccy's Place called Autumn Blessings. I colored the image with Spectrum Noir markers, die cut it with Lawn Fawn Stitched Party Banners, and used MFT Chunky Herringbone stencil to create a background on the tag with Fossilized Amber Distress Oxide ink. The sentiment is from the same set, double die cut with MFT Pierced Fishtail Flags (retired), and inked with Wild Honey Distress Oxide ink. The leaf paper in the background is from my stash on a brown card stock base. I finished it off with two brown self-adhesive gems. I am entering these challenges:
Today we met with a builder who actually showed up to talk about building a house for us. After he left we cut, split stacked the wood of a tree that Tom cut down. It was in the way of the new driveway. A lot of work so I am tired tonight. Hope your week has been awesome. Thanks for stopping by. Stay safe. Peace and all good!

Ooooh, I LOVE the paper you used Donna, what a gorgeous design and such beautiful autumn colours. Great idea to add the yellow, it really contrasts with the more muted colours... love the brown base too.
So pleased to hear the new builder turned up, you must be getting excited now!
Cheers,
Beccy
