STAMPlorations 2016 Giving Thanks Blog Hop and Linky Party

Hi, stamplings!

Today I'm honored to be a Guest Designer for my friend Shery's 2016 Giving Thanks Hop and Linky Party. I'm sure you know the multi-talented Shery as the owner of the super STAMPlorations company. Several challenges and designers have come together to take part in a Giving Thanks Hop. 

There are prizes to be won and there is a LINKY PARTY on Shery's blog for you to join in the fun!!

Here is the card I made for this special event:

I used a Winnie & Walter die to make the outer scalloped frame and a Papertrey die for the inner scalloped frame using PP from my stash. The image is from one of Shery's new stamp set bundles called, "Many Blessings Bundle" which I heat-embossed in black and then watercolored with my Ziggies. The "Bless" (without the "ings") is also cut from PP and is from the same set:

Hop and Play!

Please go to the next stop on the hop to be inspired and leave some comment love! I hope will get the chance to create a project for the LINKY PARTY, too. It can be anything to do with gratitude and thankfulness; it doesn't have to be a specific Thanksgiving project.
