Waiting For The Thanksgiving Feast!

I've been thinking about what I'm going to bring for Thanksgiving dinner, and I found some "new" recipes in this month's Family Circle magazine that are intriguing.  While I'm not usually one to experiment, some of the recipes sound delicious!

And since the food is normally the main attraction at Thanksgiving, I decided to do a layout featuring the food! This layout features the Harvest Collection from Reminisce.  It is such an elegant collection that very few embellishments are needed.  For this layout I chose to use rosettes and wooden leaves by Kasiercraft, tinted with Tim Holtz's distress inks, to bring some accent.  Now I just have to wait for Thanksgiving to fill in the pics!

Autumn Is In The Air

It's beginning to feel a lot like autumn around here.  The other day my mother asked me who was having Thanksgiving?  After I thought about it for a minute I realized that it really isn't that far off.  But really, it's a silly question because my sister is not allowed to host Thanksgiving anymore (long story, but let's just say dinner came in a box from a grocery store) so it's either her or I that host.  I'm happy to report that she is having Thanksgiving which means that we will have an awesome, home cooked meal!

This layout features the Seasons of Change collection from Moxxie.  It has muted fall tones in paisley along with a few other papers and a cardstock sticker sheet for accenting.  Here I used a Martha Stewart leaf punch to create a border and then cut a scroll embellishment from the Cricut.  Throw on a few Petaloo glitter flowers and you have a nice, easy layout.

 

Fall Is In The Air....

I've really enjoyed working with the Fall Frolic collection from Moxxie over the past couple of days.  Here's a quick centerpiece I created using a few sheets of paper and some rubons from the collection.  You can see the entire collection along with a few other layouts and project ideas here.
