“So Thankful” for the Pals Blog Hop

Welcome to the Pals November Blog Hop, we’re so thankful you stopped by!  This month we’re showcasing projects that feature Stampin’ Up! Thanksgiving and “Thank You” products.  We hope you enjoy our creations.

You may just be starting the Blog Hop or you may have come from the previous blog on the Pals Blog Hop listing shown below.  The full lineup will help you move along from blog to blog so you can enjoy each and every beautiful project.

I have SO MANY things to be thankful for: a wonderful husband (we just celebrated 27 years of marriage!), our son, our home, good health and jobs, etc.  I am also thankful to be involved with Stampin’ UP!  I have met so many wonderful people and the friendships I have because of Stampin’ Up!  I am so thankful to be part of the Stampin’ Pretty Pals and to be part of their monthly Blog Hop.   ‘Nuf said, let’s get on to the stampin’:

I’ve been hosting Thanksgiving Dinner for several years now, and I love having my family over!  Each year I make a special party-favor item (usually filled with chocolate!) for each of my guests.  This year, I plan on using the popular Square Pillow Box for my treats.   Can you tell that I also embossed the Soft Suede cardstock with the fabulous Woodland Textured Impressions Embossing Folder?

I kept the decorations simple and to the point.  A circle punched from the 2″ circle punch serves as the backdrop for the awesome acorn.  The acorn is stamped and punched using the Acorny Thank You stamp set and coordinating Acorn Builder Punch (Bundle & Save 15%).  Soft Suede and Cajun Craze inks were used for the acorn image while Hello Honey ink was used to stamp the banner.  Bitty Banner Framelits  made easy work of cropping out the sentiment banner.

Thanks for visiting.  To continue with the hop, please refer to the Blog Hop Line-up below. We hope to see you on next month’s Pals Blog Hop!
