Papercraft Star Challenge

I can't believe it's Wednesday already ... the weeks are flying past!

With Thanksgiving approaching the challenge at Papercraft Star is to 
Make a Thank You card or project ... 


What a beautiful inspiration photo this is ... 

We don't have Thanksgiving in the UK ... When I was a schoolgirl (many moons ago) we celebrated Harvest Festival ... a kind of 'Thank You'  for the fruits of the earth ... I really don't know if they still do that 

 I made a card for a sweet blog friend Jacqueline who kindly sent me a lovely set of stamps 


I had the urge to play with lavender again and Astrid's lovely paper


... which I sprinkled with a little glitter

The flourishes were cut on my Cameo  ... the stamp is WaltzingMouse and everything else is from my supplies

The lovely ladies at Papercraft Star have some wonderful cards to inspire you ... Please hop over and take a look ... 
We will be taking a break until 28th November ... when our next challenge starts ... just so you know...

Looking forward to seeing your creations ... 

Till soon
