So Thankful

So thankful for so many things today. Thankful for a wonderful birthday weekend that began Friday morning and lasted into Sunday evening. I must give special thanks to my superman of a husband, my mom for being here, and my wonderful friends for sharing such special time with me. I loved it all!

This card definitely encompasses all the things I am thankful for today. First, a blogger by the name of Melissa Phillips. Her words are sooo inspiring to me. They are so real...so raw...and so heartfelt. She issued a challenge to create something inspired by this gorgeous photo.


Amazing, huh?! I definitely wanted to capture the soft and delicate texture. Enter yummy chenille.


Hues of pinks and purples...


Sketch layout was inspired by the latest Mojo Monday. A hodge podge of stamps was also used. A little Papertrey Ink, the background behind the chipboard is from Tim Holtz and I can't find the name of the set. The sentiment is a perfect little one from Verve...one of the nice little treats Julee gives as a thanks for the order.

And finally, sooo thankful to you. Readers that stop by and keep things going...you make my blogging world go 'round. :)
