Blogger's Challenge--Giving Thanks

I love to take time to sit back and think of all the things I am thankful for, it really make you remember just how blessed we are.  This week Lisa gave us a thanksgiving theme to work with.  This first card may look like a birthday card but it has the Bright Blessing at the bottom and it is actually a thanks for being you card for a male on his birthday.  What better time to let someone know how thankful you are for them. 




This next card is just a fun fall thank you.  I love these colors.  The stamp set is retired but we have a new one out that is very similar.  I really wanted the new one but could not justify since I have this one and a few others just like it, lol!  So I just pulled this one out again and pretended it was new!



And finally another one of those treat boxes (see the Christmas one made into a place setting HERE). These are so cute and easy too.  I will be posting a tutorial by tomorrow night.


Don't forget you can see all the projects the other players made by clicking HERE.  There is a ton of talent in this group so it will be well worth your time.

Have a fabulous weekend!

All great stuff Mary Jo! Reminds me that I need to dust off that jumbo wheel that I have. It's totally been collecting dust for the past year. :)

WOW! THREE projects!! Love the first....haven't used that set is such a long time. It's just lovely. AND that 2nd one...I still have that set as well and didn't buy the fabulous new one for the very same reason. I just couldn't give this one up....it makes such wonderful cards, as you have shown us!
