Sketchy Saturday

Pin It



 Hello, this is Veronica from Vicky's Scrapping Passion sharing with you this sketch from Scrap Our Stash Challenge blog:



This sketch is their current challenge + 3 other techniques from their list. Fun, is't it?
I love the double banner background. Great idea to make a CAS background stand up.

Give Thanks Blog Hop

Pin It

'Thank you' is the best prayer that anyone could say. I say that one a lot. Thank you expresses extreme gratitude, humility, understanding. 
Alice Walker

Welcome to the Give Thanks Blog Hop!  You should have arrived from Amanda's Blog or if you are lost start at the beginning (Alicia's blog).  As we approach the holiday season, I think it is appropriate we should reflect on things for which we can be thankful.  We can be grateful for the little things and we should be grateful for the big things.  We should take the time to give thanks for all the persons and moments that make our lives so special.  

Sooooo, we would like to say a HUGE THANKS to our sponsor today.


Theresa is giving away a $20 Stampin' Up Gift Certificate to one lucky winner AND
take 10% off any order placed through her (not available on website) by November 30th. 
Email her at scrapsbygracie@gmail.com with your order. 

All you have to do to win this fabulous prize is comment on each of the blogs.
That's it! It really is easy.  
Of course, we would love it if you became a follower too. 

Comment buttons can be found at the bottom of the post (on most of the blogs).
Now on with the hop!

I am thankful everyday for my family and my friends. I hold them dear to my heart and couldn't live such a happy life if they were not in it! I am also thankful for this amazing hobby we share. It helps me relax when I am stressed, it helps me preserve memories of the people I love, and it allows me to reach out and inspire other people in the process! Crafting is good for the soul!!


I decided to create a Giving Thanks Layout using SVG files by Creative Kuts.
I have had this file in SVG stash for some time. It's adorable!! SO I am thankful I am finally creating this layout for you to see.



I will be saving this for this year's Thanksgiving photos. I hope I get some good ones. My silly family is the worst at taking pics when I want them to. LOL!




Up next is my talented friend for whom I am thankful...

YouTube Tuesday-Pop Up Pumpkin Card

Pin It
Hello friends!  It's Kim from Katydid Cards here to share another YouTube video with you.  Since our challenge this month is Pumpkin Spice, where your project should include a pumpkin (or use orange and brown in it), I thought you might enjoy watching how to make a pop-up pumpkin card.

Here the designer provides a brief overview of the card, the construction of which she breaks into two videos.




Here's the first video which is primarily dedicated to how to make the pattern and cut the pumpkin and stem:


And here's part two, devoted to the assembly of the pumpkin and the construction of the card:


Here's a way to make a card with a wow factor without having to have a cutting machine or dies.  Sometimes simple is better!

Hope you enjoy this video and that it inspires you to join us in our monthly challenge.  You can get all the details by clicking on the image directly below.

That's it for me today.  I'll see you later in the month with another video.  In the meantime, come visit me at Katydid Cards and say, "hello" if you get a chance.
