Welcome to Tangle Tuesday. Today's project was for a children's class at a local art center. These fun paper pumpkins can be made with any kind of paper and tangled with any medium. They are a perfect addition to my Thanksgiving table decorations.
Wishing all of you a blessed Thanksgiving!
Happy Monday. Well fall did blow in on Thursday and the weather has been refreshingly cool. Something about being able to put on a sweater makes me happy. Thankful for these little things.
Today we start a new sketch challenge at Inky Paws. I decided to turn the sketch on it's head, being as I am partial to vertical cards.
Today's card uses lots of fun product from Newton's Nook. "Paw-tumn Newton", "falling leaves" stencil, and "fancy edges tag" die set,
I am not really familiar with this group- One Direction, but their song "Little Things" is just so sweet.
You have two weeks to play along at our sketch challenge at Inky Paws. We will chose a RANDOM entry to win a $20.00 Newton's Nook store gift certificate. Our favorite entries from each challenge will be highlighted the following Monday, so all entries have a chance to be featured on the blog.
The deadline to enter today's challenge is Friday October 7, 2022 at MN CST. The winners will be announced
on the following Monday at Inky Paws.
1. I am grateful for my family and being able to see them in person. A year and a half is way to long to go without hugging your loved ones!
2. I am grateful for my friends and my crafting tribe. You all always make me laugh.
3. I am grateful for the new kittens. Petey and Pixie are the best fun and not a day goes by that I am not laughing at their antics.
4. I am grateful that I do not have to work and the fact that I have to look at my watch to see what day of the week it is.
5. I am grateful for my art and my crafting and that I get to enjoy it everyday.
6. I am grateful for my health, a good night's sleep, and 10,000 steps a day.
7. Lastly and most importantly, I am grateful for my dear husband George, who has been my biggest support through out a tumultuous year.
Wishing everyone a blessed Thanksgiving!
Morning all! Can you believe it Thanksgiving is in three weeks! Where does the time go. It just flies away like the autumn leaves on the breeze.How many of you do the cooking for Thanksgiving? before the pandemic i would head to my brother's on the Monday before Thanksgiving and we would spend the next four days cooking.

Did any of you have the opportunity to join in the "plaid" challenge at Inky Paws last week? If not you still have one more week to join the fun. Who doesn't love a plaid. Halloween is over and the slide into Christmas starts with Thanksgiving. Time to get started!
My card today I used the gingham stencil from Newton's Nook. To add interestl I just turned the stencil upside down to create the lattice look and I then added the black lines for an accent. The image is from "Autumn Newton" by Newton's Nook.

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a great Halloween weekend and remembered to turn your clocks back. It seemed like no one knew what to do with their extra hour and instead of sleeping in they all went grocery shopping!! Trader Joe's and Whole Foods were absolutely bonkers Sunday morning. Anyone else notice that?
Today I want to remind you that you still have one more week to play along with our sketch challenge over at Inky Paws.
