Thanks 'Ole Foxy One

Hello Crafty Friends,
 
I just got back from picking up my son from college (after 4 hours of driving). He is home for the long holiday weekend. Yeah! Tomorrow we are going to the grandparents for turkey dinner and then maybe a little Black Friday shopping.
 
Before my retrieval trip, I worked on this project. Doesn't that fox look like a sly one? Of course, those eyes do make him look a little innocent...maybe even a bit cuddly.
It was the first time I used Wild Card 2. I cut the fox (p. 48) at 3". The fox is resting upon an embossed (Tim Holtz distressed) square with brown square brads in the corners. All the edges were inked too.
I cut "thanks" from Just Because Cards and added a brown velvet flower with a red button. The bow is white embroidery floss.
 
What am I thankful for? Family...my dog...my job...my crafty friends...
How about you? What are you thankful for?
I used this sketch from The Sweet Shop, but didn't use a tasty treat....Ooops! I may need to use this sketch again, but add something yummy next time.

Stay Creative,
Georgiana

  9. Love the foxy card. He is too cute, but everyone knows it is those cute ones you have to look out for! Yesterday I was thankful for Copic marker refills as two the much needed ones decided they were due for a refill. I told my hubby and I think he was sad that I wasn't thankful for his wonderful presence. Maybe if he'd have refilled the markers for me... LOL!
