Crafty Gals November Challenge!!!
Hello everyone!!!. November challenge with the Crafty Gals!!!. I would like to invite you to check everyone's blog, we have a wonderful creative group.
This month our hostess is our sweet Jackie and she challenged us like this:
"November is for Thanksgiving and we all have so many things to be thankful for so my challenge for you this month is to create a project to showcase our Blessings. It can be a card, shadowbox, picture frame, scrapbook layout, mini album, etc. Please make whatever your heart desires as long as it features what your are thankful for and I also want to use a fall theme for your creations".
Of course the first thing that came to my mind when thinking about thankfulness were my kids and my family but I couldn't think of a stamp to show that. Then in my church's magazine, I read about the responsibility we have to take care of our world because that was God's precious gift to us. The post talked about taking care of our nature and then I saw this lovely stamp by Riley and Company. Fall is my favourite season. I LOVE fall colours and I pictured God painting all this beautiful colours for us to enjoy.
Also I'm using this card for the Deconstructed Sketch Challenge #76 and Riley and Company Challenge Riley2212.
For this card I used:
Cardstock: Really Rust, Summer Sun and Whisper White from SU
Designer Paper: Lost and Found2 from My Mind's Eye
Stamps: Under the Tree Riley and Company and the sentiment is from the set Just Believe from SU
Accessories: Memento Tuxedo Black ink, Round stax die and Fishtail die from MFT, Scallop border punch from SU. Pearls from Recollections, Copic Markers and Paper piercing tool kit from SU.

Crafters of Faith October Challenge
Hello everyone!!!. End of the month again and the Crafters of Faith have another great challenge to share. This month our hostess was Sharon and she challenged our group with this:
Sharon's favourite season is Autumn..."In Southern Ontario it is quickly making its appearance and where I'm fro the colour of the changing leaves can be quite spectacular. It's so inspiring... I just love it! Autumn also includes my most favourite holiday celebration... Thanksgiving!. It's hard not to love a holiday that calls on us to give thanks for our blessings. I realize not everyone around the world celebrates this holiday and our friends in the U.S. don't celebrate until November, so for this challenge you can choose to make either a card for Thanksgiving or a thank you card for someone who has been a blessing to you. Please use at least 2 designer papers and 1 embellishment, and most importantly, have fun!
For this card I used:
Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Whisper White and Really Rust from SU
Designer Paper: it is an old DP from SU and I can't remember the name (this are my old scrap that I'm using for the Use it Tuesday challenge...also the orange in the pumpkins).
Stamps: Maybelle R.O. (Whimsy and Stars Studio). Pilgrim digi.
Accessories: Scallop square Spellbinder, Leaves punch and branch punch from Martha Stewart, Pearls from the dollar store, Paper Piercing tool kit from SU, Copic markers and the flower dies from MFT.
