Little Red Wagon #315 - Turkey Day

Welcome!  Donna is our challenge hostess this week at Little Red Wagon and she wants to see turkeys.  Lots and lots of turkeys!

I had fun creating a paper-pieced turkey for my card.

I cut him out using my Silhouette Cameo and then paired him with some pretty papers, ribbon, buttons and a silly sentiment :)

Will you add a turkey to our rafter?  (I had to look that term up.  A group of wild turkeys is called a flock, whereas a domesticated group is called a rafter or gang.  Who knew?)  Stop by Little Red Wagon and link up your design. Also, be sure to visit the Girlfriends on the Design Team.  They will have some amazing inspiration for you. 

As We Speak

Learning to walk by faith, not by sight
Loving the smell of fresh cut grass - likely for the last time this year
Enjoying Adele's new song, Hello
Watching The Walking Dead - bad, I know!
Reading Winnie the Pooh for Book Club
Craving Chicken Pot Pie
Accomplishing lots on my to-do list, which is always a mile long
Thanking my brother, David, for sharing his wisdom with me
Hoping to see my family soon
Wishing for a pair of Lululemon Groove Pants
Dreaming of traveling somewhere warm
Drinking Hot Chocolate (I wish I had some marshmallows!)

What are you doing as we speak?

Little Red Wagon Challenge #314 - Mix It Up!

This week at Little Red Wagon, Brenda wants us to mix it up by using 3 patterned papers.

Well, I really mixed it up, because I ended up using 4 patterned papers instead of 3 and only because I didn't  pay close enough attention to the challenge description the first time I read it.

I cut my leaves out of coordinating patterned papers, inked them (just for Carolyn!) and added them to my Kraft background.

Then a simple ribbon, a lovely button and a fun sentiment finished my card off.

What comes to your mind when you think of using 3 patterned papers?  I hope you will share your creativity with us by linking up your project at Little Red Wagon.  Also, be sure to visit the Girlfriends' blogs.  There will be lots of great inspiration waiting for you.
