Give Thanks



For this project I have covered my base card with brown parcel paper and distressed with brown inks. Using the same inks stamped swirls. To make the flowers I've used a flower template on the same brown paper, stamped with a script stamp, distressed and added a button with a piece of string tied in the middle. To add to the decoration I die-cut some swirls and inked. To add a little sparkle I've added gold glitter glue to the flowers, buttons, swirls and letters.

I have entered this card into the Polka Doodles, Week 46 Challenge - Give Thanks. This made me think a little bit and realised that I need to give thanks to all the people in my life, especially my Husband and my Son, who stand by me and support me no matter what. Also the give thanks that I have survived another year and especially this year has it has been so difficult for us. So I hope you enjoy this card and that it may give you a little inspiration.
