Loves Rubberstamps GDT: Thanksgiving

Image
By sparklingblackrose
Good afternoon everyone, hope you are well :-) Here I am with my Guest design project for Loves Rubberstamps 'Thanksgiving' challenge. As we dont celebrate thanksgiving in the UK I made a Thank you card to give thanks instead. I used a Wild Rose Studios Fergus stamp coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers which I cut round with a circle nestie. I then used My Minds Eye 'Bloom and Grow' papers which I cut into shapes to mimic a patchwork quilt and used faux stitching on the edges of these. I added Wooden buttons in each corner and American Crafts polka dot ribbon running through the middle of the squares. I then stamped a 'Thank you so much!' greeting on matching MME papers and cut round the border. I then placed this on my card.

I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Dilly Beans Challenge: Anything for the boys
Paper Pretties: Make a Thank you card
Cards for Men: Anything Goes
Forever Friends Challenge: Use Ribbon or Twine
Lexis Creations: Thanks/Thanksgiving
Make My Monday: Stitching
Stamps&Fun=Creativity: Anything Goes
The Paper Girls Challenge: Thanks
Pile it On: Lets be Thankful
Catch the Bug: Something with a tail

Thank you for looking and for all your lovely comments :-)
