Thanksgiving Charity and a SFYTT

Today I have another Thanksgiving card ready to send to a special friend.  This one features the lovely "Charity" by Mo Manning.  The fall harvest produces such bounty of color, tastes and nourishment. 

I used this week's SFYTT (sketch for you to try) from I {heart} 2 stamp with scraps of the fall papers I've been using past few weeks.  The flower is a combination of a silk flower, Prima, and a corduroy brad.  The leaves are Martha Stewart punches.

Charity is colored with Copics, which have all the right colors for those yummy veggies in the basket.

The inside is a computer-generated sentiment and graphic from The Print Shop Pro Publisher. 

Thanks for stopping by today, and I hope that your day is filled with many blessings.

Mo's Digital Pencil 2 Challenge --- Vellum or Acetate

Lydia continues as the November challenge hostess at Mo's Digital Pencil and she keeps our creative juices flowing once again.  Vellum and/or acetate is the key ingredient for our cards and projects.  If that just sparked some ideas in your imagination then you just have to join in the fun!  The design team has provided lots of inspiration, too, so be sure to hop over to the challenge for a peek.

I wanted to make a very special Thanksgiving card so I used vellum and Mo's sketch "Punkin" on an easel card.

Punkin is colored with Copics.  He is so adorable! Behind Punkin is a piece of antiqued vellum torn on one side.  The greeting is computer-generated and sits on a torn piece of orange vellum.  Scattered maple leaf brads follow the flow of the sentiment.

Here's a close-up of Punkin.

The inside of the easel card features a fantastic cloth ribbon of scarecrows and cornfields. I've been looking for an excuse to use this ribbon.  The vellum pieces carry over from the front and a few more leaves.  The sentiment is computer-generated, too.

It's hard to believe that Thanksgiving is only 10 days away!  I hope you have been plans to join with family and friends to kick off the holiday season --- not to mention the football bowl games!
