Let's Give Thanks!

It's that time of year again to be thankful for all our blessings.  I thought it only fitting, with Thanksgiving just around the corner, to create a thank you card for all our loyal Paper Trunk fans!  I dug into one of PT's older collections for this creation.  I used the paper "Dy-No-Mite" from the 1974 line.  It's so cute and whimsical and it went perfect with the tree chipboard from Magistical Memories!  I used a scalloped frame from Technique Tuesday for the shape of my card and used the "Dy-No-Mite" paper in the center.  The frame was misted with glimmer mist and I punched some holes on the side so that I could thread the ribbon through.  For the chipboard tree, I painted it in a bronze color and added a little of the same green misting from the frame.  Then I filled all the little circles with some stickles.  The title is of course made from the adorable "Benny" alphabets by Paper Trunk.

This year I'm thankful to be holding onto my sanity and my family during these tough times.  What are you thankful for this year?
