I really LOVE Thanksgiving. It is my favorite holiday and so I wanted to make something special that I can put on the table for the dinner guests. I created these fun place settings to share with you today and my guests on Thanksgiving........
I used some 4 1/2 x 6 3/4 inch glassine bags and I sprayed them with some Tattered Angels mists to give the bags a little bit of color. The tags are cut out with my Cricut and the Art Philosophy cartridge. The adorable little turkey and saying are from the Lil Tweets - Thanksgiving set from Peachy Keen Stamps. I colored in the little turkey with my Copic markers and then added some white pen details.
I tied them on the bags with some yellow ribbon and finished them off with a green button and some raffia.
Before you continue on the hop, I would like to share with you some things that I am thankful for. I am thankful for God's love....I see it every day. I am thankful that He has sent me my wonderful husband and my beautiful children.....they are the greatest blessings in my life. I am thankful for the roof over our heads and for the sustaining food and clean water I have access to. I am also very thankful for the wonderful talent that He has blessed me with and that I am able to share it with you.
