Stamp Simply #115 Mass Production

Happy Thanksgiving! Did you count your blessings today? I'm so thankful that my boys run in the house... it means that they are healthy enough to do that. I'm thankful for the socks, shoes & toys that get left on the floor... it means that my kids have those things. I'm thankful that the alarm will be going off at 3:00 am tomorrow... it means that my wonderful hubby has a job to go to. I'm thankful for the medicines that we have readily available to us... both my son & I have had allergy attacks today. I'm thankful for the men & women who are serving our country, defending our freedoms. I'm thankful for the day on the calendar set aside for us to "give thanks" & I hope it is something that we remember to do frequently!

I was so excited when I saw Sharon's Stamp Simply Challenge, was to create a card that could be mass produced easily. I needed one more design for my cards. I got the cardstock cut out for the rest of them, but will put them together tomorrow. I'm going to have to order a refull for my R37 copic, I have used it on so many cards in the past few weeks.

Double Challenge Card

The sketch is loosely based on the sketch from this week's Crazy 4 Challenges sketch.

The 2nd challenge is for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge. We were to make a Thanksgiving card.

We have so many things to be thankful for. At our house, we've been talking about the things we are thankful for. Each night, during our family devotions time we name 5 things we are thankful for & they can't be a repeat from our list from a previous day, but they can be something from someone's list. Last night, I said I was thankful for clean indoor, flushing toilets. Growing up on the mission field, I experienced many horrors in this dept. Both of my boys chimed in & said that it wasn't any big deal, they would be happy to go outside... thankfully we live in the sticks!!! LOL! This morning, I told my oldest to go outside to go to the bathroom... he came back inside & said tonight he is going to say that he is thankful for inside bathrooms too! It was a little chilly this morning! LOL! I hope you take some time to think about some of the things you are thankful for. I read a quote today that will be one of the things I say tonight... I'm thankful that Christ came into the world, so I could enter His." Isn't that an incredible thing?

Stamps: Simple Blessings Unity, sentiment So Grateful Gina K.

Gina K. Customer Blog Hop

Gina K. Designs is having a Customer Blog Hop!!! WOO HOO!!! I chose Nina's Vintage Borders as my set. I stamped the music notes background stamp off onto a piece of scratch paper & stamped it 2nd generation onto my Sweet Corn cardstock. I love the verse from Isaiah in this set. I made the card simple enough that I can mass produce to use for some of my Christmas cards this year.

Elzybells Reindeer

Another card for my thank you's. I got the cardstock cut out, but didn't get them all made. I don't know if you can see the glitter, but it's there! Hopefully, they will go together really quickly since the cardstock is cut. I am missing the challenges, but want to get these cards finished up. I'll be back to the challenges soon!
