In the Limelight - A Time to be Thankful

Each month the Limelight Papercrafts Design Team creates a big themed project. I am excited to be joining the team for this month's theme: Thankful. I love Thanksgiving time...great fall weather, family gatherings, a time to be thankful for our many blessings.

I really wanted to showcase the Thankful theme so I decided to try something new! I had my Dad cut up some wood blocks for me (thanks Dad!), covered them in some Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg paper and added some Nutmeg Chipboard letters to create this fun home decor item.

OUT FOR PUBLICATION! :)

I really love how this turned out and it was pretty easy too. I might make these up for every holiday! :) It makes for a great table centerpiece or perfect for the mantle. It would be a wonderful gift to give to your Thanksgiving Day hostess too...so I also made up a card to go along with it.

For this card I used some more of my
Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg paper,
Unity's Simply Said stamp set,
OBP Noel's Cross Stitch stamp,
Kaisercraft Chocolate Pearls,
Prima Obsessions flower,
Jillibean Soup bean seeds harvest felt flower, and a
Kaisercraft Orange Rhinestone...
ALL available at Limelight Papercrafts!

However, I will probably just give this card to someone as a thank you note because I don't think I am going to part with my thankful blocks! :)

And if you are a Unity stamp lover like me, you will want to be sure to take a look at Limelight's sales. Mandy has both the September and October kits at a great price and she also has the brand new November store kit in stock and it is a must have! :) Have a wonderful day!
