Thankful

Hello there users! It's time for Challenge #20 at Use It Tuesday.

Because it's almost Thanksgiving, our challenge this week is to make a project (layout, card, etc.) about "Giving Thanks". We don't celebrate Thanksgiving here in the Philippines (maybe we should) but I've been to a few Thanksgiving celebrations myself and it is nothing but fun and good food!

This week I put myself to the test. Instead of a layout, I made a Thank You card. I am not at all a card maker and this was really a challenge for me. Here is my attempt at card making.


I used old papers from my American Crafts stash, some old twine and almost dry Stickles. What do you think? :)

Please do join us for this challenge. I invite you to visit the Use It Tuesday blog for challenge details and to see the wonderful creations of our fabulous DT. This challenge is open to all scrapbookers and card makers.

Just a friendly reminder: All of our challenges call for you to use your hoarded supplies! A challenge requirement is to tell us in your post what you used.

As always, one lucky participant will be randomly chosen to be a featured guest designer in an upcoming challenge!

So dig into your stash and USE IT!

Have a great Thanksgiving holiday!
