Morning all, it's the 17th again, which means it's time for another Waltzingmouse Stamps Blog Waltz! This month, the theme is 'Thanksgiving', and although this is an American tradition, it seems to me that we should all stop and appreciate all we have to thankful for.
I have used a kraft card base, and stamped some leaves from Blessed by You, and Peace and Plenty in Frayed Burlap Distress ink.
Then I coloured the apple basket from Peace and Plenty using Promarkers in: Apricot,Gold, Raw Sienna,Poppy, Crimson, Burgundy, Grass, Forest Green, Pine and a blender pen.
Layered some ruffled green trim from American Crafts, and a little sentiment tag, also from Peace and Plenty.
Right, I'm off for a turn around the blogosphere myself, Happy Waltzing!

Pauline - those apples look positively gorgeous! Your colouring is fabulous. Love the background stamping too!
I love your stamped background, its so natural and lovely, and the green ribbon really pops! Thanks for sharing!
I don't think I have ever seen a better job of coloring apples...ever. The shine on them is gorgeous. This is such a great Fall card, I guess I forget that not everyone celebrates the actual Thanksgiving holiday, but your card certainly nails it for me.
Pauline, I love the leaf background and that basket of apples is just YUMMY! Beautiful job on this!
Wow, you used one of my favorite stamps, from a set I don't have yet! The coloring on the apples is awesome--just so perfectly done. Love the background too and that gorgeous ribbon.
Great job with your background stamping! And your apple basket is so full of life!
Very pretty card and I agree we should be thankful for our blessings x

Your colouring is stunning!! I thought that it was a chipboard or ready-made embellie at first - so perfect ;)
