Used DCWV Indian Summer paper for the background. Cut the turkey in brown, orange, red, and green from PDDU at 4" Real Dial Size.....then cut them apart, inked them, and pieced them together. The hat is Pilgrim boy, cut at 3" in black/cream...pieced.. Collar is cut at 3" and 4" Inked....doodled...and buttoned everything. Added google eyes. Sentiment is a rub on from Recollections.

This card featured in November, 2010 ScrapStreet magazine.

Gobble, Gobble

Still working on Thanksgiving.......but I couldn't resist another turkey. He's pieced from Animal Kingdom....turkey cut at 5 1/2" in brown for the base...in orange to get the feet layers. The head is the bird head feature, cut at 2 1/2" real dial size with an orange beak. Cut the waddle at 2 1/2" with the turkey head feature. Added google eyes. The "head dress" is Doodlecharms eggs cut at 1" shadow. The wings are the snail shell on Walk in My Garden, cut at 1" (green) 1 1/4" yellow and 1 1/2" orange....layered with pop dots between each color. Sentiment is from Animal Kingdom...cut at 1 1/2" Everything is inked and doodled....and pop dots here, there, and everywhere.

Quilted Turkey - Frosted Designs November Card Sketch

Love the November sketches at Frosted Designs! I've always wanted to try a quilt card so here goes...great way to use up scraps. Background paper is Recollections. The frame is 3 1/2 x 5, punched with the MS Leaf border/corner set. The squares are 1 1 /4" , punched around them with my little awl used for stiching punches. Made a border at the bottom of the card and backed it with brown to make it show up. The turkey is PDDU, cut at 2", layered and pop dotted the feathers, chalked, inked, and penciled the turkey.....layered the legs/feet. Sentiment is stickers.

Spots and Dots/Plaid Turkeys

Here is my Polka Dot Turkey! I used PPDU for the turkey, cut it in 5 different colors to get the little layers. American Traditional paper for the background.....little polka dots are DCWV. I had a brand new Fiskars circle punch so of course, I had to use it! Fall is a Sweetwater Chipboard. Brown sheer ribbon/bow at the top, but it doesn't show up too well. I kind of like this card!!

I decided I liked this card enough I would make another version.........plaid this time. Used DCWV paper from the Fall Stack.

Pilgrim's Give Thanks

Thanksgiving cards using paper doll dress up. Decided to make several different versions for my family. Same little pilgrims.......different colors and embellishments.

My first attempt at peachykeen stamps on the face....I like them!

Inside says Psalms 107:1

Give thanks unto the Lord
for He is good; His love
endures forever.
Psalm 107:1

Happy Thanksgiving!
