Most of all....Your creative and beautiful brain

Found this in my shop..Free stuff

Any color will do.

I used a black poster board for my image.

I decided to decoupage the letters.  I first painted them and then I glued them on.

Hot glue your flowers.  WOW!  You are amazing.

For little ones...We decoupaged the antlers and lettering.  He painted the antlers first. The letters are a beautiful card stock. The finished product was not dry when I took the photo.  Oops

Craft of the week:
Create a long lasting memory. These custom place mats are so easy and heart warming. You can makes these on your Cricut or Silhouette Machine.  I am using a Cricut for my design.

During this time of year we give a lot of gratitude. It is so wonderful to hear about the many blessing bestowed on our loved ones. I want to share a family tradition with you. Imagine sitting around the table at Thanksgiving or Christmas. As you look around the table you are watching all your loved ones writing what they are thankful for.  Except for that creepy Uncle. Let's not look at him.
At the end of your meal you can gather the blessing and hang them on your refrigerator, fireplace mantel, or scrapbook them.

These are like little treasures that keep on giving through the holiday season.

Supplies:
Scrapbook paper
Copper Medium Tip 1.0 pen
Thanksgiving SVG File
(click above to get this great SVG file)

When you get the Thanksgiving file into Cricut Design Space, select the write attribute and rotate your design.  

I used the back side of scrap paper for this project. You can use poster board, cut to the desired size, or card stock.  Be the free spirit that you are.

Now click GO!  You have just made a lasting memory for your family.
