Welcome to 

A Day of Thanks

Blog Hop

As we approach the busy Holiday seasons, let us take a few minutes this weekend to stop and reflect on the things in our life that we are thankful for. We bring you this hop as a way to encourage you and inspire you to reach out and say thank you to those who surround you. This simple gesture can go along way!

Connie Can Crop  (that's me) is the beginning of this hop!

This is a one day blog hop, but you have until Sunday to finish hopping and leaving your love for all of these talented crafters.

We have an awesome sponsor for this month!

One lucky winner will win a gift certificate

Be sure to check out the shop online HERE

What do you need to do to win? Easy... become  a follower of each of the fabulous blogs in this hop and leave each of them a comment letting them know what you like best about their projects.

You will have until 10 pm Sunday to finish the hop and leave your comments.

Winners will be announced on Wednesday 11/22/17 at Connie Can Crop.

Be sure to follow everyone and leave a comment along the way!

I wanted to create a special card for someone that I think doesn't get thanked often enough! Especially with all the crazy stuff happening in our world! This is who we have to thank for helping keep us safe! I don't have any one person in mind...but maybe I will just send it to the local station!

I used a Miss Kate Cuttables SVG file for the Police images and did a print and cut.
The sentiment is cut out from SVG cuts freebie section.
Also used paper and a stamp I had on hand!


Now Please hop on over to my dear friend KIM. I am super thankful for her and all these amazing girls who joined in this hop! And for you, for joining us! Thank you!

Here's our line up in case you get lost along the way.

Hi!  It's Kim from Katydid Cards with a YouTube Tuesday video.  Since our challenge this month is a color challenge, I felt it appropriate to share a video about color challenges:

In this video, she shows how she interpreted a color challenge on eight unique cards.  I hope this inspires you do make a project for our challenge this month:

And here's the color palette we're challenging you to use:

Our sponsor this month is Bugaboo Stamps and that would be enough to make me enter the challenge as they have the best digital images.

Hi, I'm Sandy Suarez and I am so excited to be this month's Guest Designer for Connie Can Crop.  I have 4 sons and have been married for 27 years.  I work full time, and enjoy scrapbooking, making cards, homemade decorations and other various crafts on my spare time.  When you get a chance, please stop by my blog at Simply Crafty Creations by Sandy S.

The sponsor for this month's challenge is Bugaboo Digi Stamps

Using the below challenge/color palette

I made a welcome sign for the holidays with Bugaboo's "Bygfallfence Fall Fence" digi stamp.  I printed the digi stamp large enough for my frame, used alcohol ink markers to color it and added the word "Welcome" cut with my Cricut Explore and also framed the digi stamp with the same turquoise cardstock.

 

Added a little shine with a Gelly Roll shimmer pen.

 

 

 

Well, I must say, I think it turned out pretty cute.  Something I can take out every year for the fall season.

 

 

Thanks for visiting!
