...for my life, my loves, my homes, my job, my five senses, my creativity...
AND the new Squigglefly Challenge!! (You'll never guess what the new challenge is...wait for it...)
A THANKFUL THEME!! (Bet you didn't see that one coming)
You can create a thank you card, a Thanksgiving card, or anything with a grateful theme.
One of November's newest digi releases from Squigglelfy mixes both the "giving thanks" theme with the Thanksgiving theme for one terrific image. Our very talented Fawn Palmer is the artist of Happy Turket Day digi image from Squigglefly Designs.
I decided to go along with the Thanksgiving theme and create a feast for the eyes, in bold bright colors! I used my Copics to color Fawn's image, then added a little Stickle here and a little Liquid Glass there for a little shine, especially on the pumpkins. I actually printed up two images, then used just the larger pumpkin to add to my scene.
I found a leftover piece of Dasher patterned paper and distressed the edges. Before adhering my image to the card, I fell into a feather frenzy for a fun feel (feeling funny using all those F's). I glued the feathers under the image and slipped the pumpkin pie recipe sticker (Tim Holtz Idealogy Sticker Pad) and a bit of K&Co border in orange along the side. Then had to staple a few snippets of ribbon and thought I had better quit before my card exploded!!
The girl in the image just looked like she was having a blast in her turkey costume, so I wanted to give my card that same fun feeling. I hope you like it! For more of Fawn's digi images, check out the Squigglefly Store. And don'y forget to showcase the things for which you are grateful with a card! Use a Squigglefly image and enter it in the challenge for a chance to win!
p.s. One more thing to be grateful for: the honor of being on the Squigglefly Design Team for another term!! I am such a lucky duck (or should it be turkey, in line with the season?)!
