Uh Oh!!! I just now realized this morning that I had no Thanksgiving cards made with all the hubbub that's been going on with the past couple of storms in the past couple of weeks!!! And, I just realized we're less than a week away from the big turkey! YIKES! So what did I do? I did what any responsible housewife would do, that's what! I made a card and blew off the loads of laundry that are literally screaming at me to get done ;)
I used the current weekly sketch at
MFT for inspiration along with the stamp set from Pure Innocence called
Turkey Time. Just the cutest thing ever!
I used some
very old My Mind's Eye dp that I had laying around and paper pieced her little dress with it to match. The rest of her is colored in Copics. The flower was layered with some flowers I had in my stash, which I added a button to, and finished it off with The Twinery twine in Flax that I picked up from the MFT store. This little cutie and the sentiment were then distressed with some Tim Holtz Vintage photo. I also whipped out my Fiskars Treading water punch to add a little something special.
Well it's off to make some more and
maybe do some laundry ;) Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
