It's Tuesday and Time for a NEW Challenge at Shopping Our Stash.

Yesterday was the Canadian Thanksgiving, I hope you all had a great weekend and of course can't forget our U.S. friends that celebrated Columbus day. It was a soggy we weekend here in SWO at the lake, the ground is so saturated we can't park on our property, so nice the neighbours okayed us to park in their area. Challenge #375 at Shopping Our Stash is Giving Thanks your choice a Thanksgiving project or just a Thank you card.  The U.S. has their Thanksgiving later than we do in Canada so now is the time to get your cards made.

Since we are at the cottage I went with a very simple approach to my card, it is an Eclipse card, rather picky to do but love the look of it. Since I didn't bring alpha stamps with me or type out Give on the computer I use some stickers.

Close up of Thanks.

Finished the inside with a sentiment and a scrap of leftover paper. 

Thanks for visiting today and head over to the MAIN BLOG and check out the rest of the design team projects.

It’s the Second Week of the Thanksgiving Challenge at Clear it Out Tuesday

There is a second week of the Thanksgiving challenge at Clear it Out Tuesday, the stash item is a sentiment left over from another project. There are two sponsors for the challenge, Lacy Sunshine and Bugaboo, please visit their stores they both have awesome digis.
This week for the challenge I used an image from Lacy Sunshine it is Emily’s windy autumn day.

Isn’t this the most adorable face? Now to see the whole card……

I coloured the image with prisma colour pencils and oms, the leaves were painted with my twinkling H20s. Since I got carried away sizing my image I didn’t have room for either of the stash sentiments, they were just too large. Since I am not really good with the rub-ons and while cutting out a section I have ended up with another stuck to my finger or the table so I managed to find a part rub-on….the word “friend” The flowers reminded me of sunflowers I didn’t have any brown brads but plan on adding brown centers to the flowers.

Supplies I used:

Image Lacy Sunshine

Cardstock…so saffron and turquoise, gp white

Tulip border embossing folder, flowers, buttons

part sentiment “friend”

Thanks for checking today and have a wonderful week.

October 1st wow where did September go? Thanksgiving in Canada  is October 14th this year a little earlier than in the U.S.thanksgiving, I’m not sure when it is in other countries,
The challenge at Clear it Out  is Thanksgiving and the stash item is……………a sentiment left over from another project. I didn’t have a problem with that one I had 4 different ones on my desk when I read the stash item.  I had the word Celebrate that was  a couple of inches long and had a V cut in each end so I cut off the tails to make it fit my card and just nipped the corners. Sponsors for this challenge are Bugaboo, Lacy Sunshine and The Stamping Chef.

The image I chose was from Bugaboo, Stella Calendar months, Thanksgiving. check out the sentiment on the inside.

I made a 6 X 4 1/4 inch card to accommodate the image which I seemed to have gotten carried away with the resizing. tee hee.
