CHALLENGE #22 - THANKS GIVING/THANK YOU -SHARON'S TURN


What a couple of week's this has been! I usually like to have my card and post up and ready in lots of time but unfortunately it hasn't happened this time!

So this month's challenge at SUNDAYS WITH CRISSY is THANKS GIVING or THANK YOU. I hate to be ignorant but I don't know what the celebration Thanks Giving is for! I did think perhaps it was celebrating Indepentance Day but that's the 4th July, then I wondered if it was something to do with the Pilgrim Fathers! So I don't rightly know - so I am sticking with THANK YOU which is far more generic.

I have used SWEET SARAH available from WHIMSY STAMPS singularly or as part of a set.
For further details check out my blog here.



Now it's your turn to show us your Thanks/Thanksgiving cards!! See upload instructions below!! There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month! You may now use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted.

Challenge 22 THANKS.THANKSGIVING: Linda’s Turn

Hello to everyone and as this card is posted I will be in the UK ( I hope)most probably freezing as I am always cold there but knowing me well wrapped up. 

Today I am going to show you a Thanksgiving card I made for the challenge this month which is THANKS.THANKSGIVING.

I combined two of Chrissys images again, called Turk in Boots and Stuffed Turkey, when I was colouring these images I thought how cool it would be to have Anticipation and Satisfaction on one card so I went with the flow so to speak.


So go where the inspiration takes you I say and I hope we get to see lots of your inspiration for this challenge.

You can read more details about this card on my blog Pinklilacs I would love for you to pop in and visit me.

You can find both these images and a lot more at Whimsy Stamps


Now it's your turn to show us your THANKS.THANKSGIVING. cards!!

Challenge 22: Thanks/Thanksgiving - Carole's Turn

Hi everyone! I had originally intended to make a Thanksgiving card, even though we don't actually celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK, for the sole reason that I really wanted to have a go at colouring the wonderful Turk In Boots image that Crissy recently released. But then she went and released some more images and I couldn't resist using this fabby Sugar Pie Honey Bunch, so I've ended up making a simple Thank You card instead.



I made a second card using the same image but printed out in very pale ink, which just gives a different look. For more details about these cards, please visit my blog HERE.


Now it's your turn to show us your Thanks/Thanksgiving cards!! See upload instructions below. There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month.

Challenge #22--Thanks/Thanksgiving--Shannah's Turn

Hi Everyone!

Our theme for October is THANKS/THANKSGIVING. That means  "Thanks" or "Thanksgiving" cards are welcome for this challenge!

Now we don't celebrate 'Thanksgiving' here in Australia, but I have lots of lovely friends in the US and Canada who do - all of whom I'm very thankful for! (Not to mention that Crissy made such a cute turkey image that I wanted to play with hehe!)


So I've chosen Crissy's "Turk in Boots" image, available from Whimsy Stamps for my 'Thanksgiving' card. Though I think I'm the turkey 'cause I have to admit I actually don't know what colour a turkey is.... So I took a wild-turkey guess and just had fun!

So here's my Challenge #22 - Thanks/Thanksgiving card...


And the angled view...


I'd love you to gobble-on over to my blog Embellished ExpresShan's for more details about my card!

Crissy's New Digi Images for October!!

Hello and Happy Sunday!! I just wanted to show you Crissy's new digi images for October.

"Christmas Bear"


"Christmas Bear--Pencil"



"Christmas Cheer Deer"


"Sugar Pie Honey Bunch"



"Sugar Pie Honey Bunch--Pencil"

You will notice that Crissy has released some pencil versions of a couple of her images. These images are softer and have more of a vintage look to them. Other places you can find Crissy's rubber & digital stamps are at Wags 'n Whiskers (R&D), Squigglefly (D only) & Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps (R only). High Hopes (R only) carries tons of stamps designed by Crissy (but the artist is not specified--although her art, in my humble opinion, is pretty unmistakeable ☺--if you have any questions about Crissy's HHS images just email us or leave us a comment and we will respond.)

My card for this challenge is going to Scott, a friend of our family who is currently serving with the Canadian Forces over in Afghanistan!! Waving Scott!!! I used one of Crissy's newer digi images called "Turk in Boots"--don't you just love him?? Crissy is the master when it comes to making turkeys look cute lol!!
