Happy Thanksgiving

It's been a difficult year, but still so many things to be thankful for.  Wishing everyone celebrating a blessed day.  Here's one of the cards I made using a tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers for Disappearing Nine Patch card.  
I used papers from an old favorite DCWV pad called Harvest House and the PTI Quilted Summer & Tag Sale: Quilted dies.  Fun to use a bit of ribbon & the sentiment is ephemera from the paper pad. 
My inexpensive gold cardstock matched the gold leaves on the printed paper.  The only problem with quilt dies is that you always have left over pieces!  I'm entering SSS Wednesday.
Not sure I ever used the Memory Box Winsome Snowflake Collage die, but this won't be the last time.  I brushed the white die cut panel with a shimmer pen & backed the circles with a beautiful C&9 blue glitter paper. 
The white embossed W&W sentiment was popped up & I added black enamel dots to the snowflake centers.  
The sparkle & shimmer is so beautiful in person.  I'm entering the Memory Box November challenge & SSS Wednesday.

Thanks so much for taking time to stop by.  If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.

    What a creative quilt card and looking forward to seeing more with the leftover pieces x. The snowflake die on your second die is so delicate and pretty and your card is beautiful Greta x. Sending hugs and sending a blessed day to you too Greta x.

    Two Beautiful card to see today. I'm a great fan of anything quilt like, so the first card is really appealing. But then blue is my favourite colour, so I love the snowflake card too. Thanks for the inspiration.

    Two beautiful cards and both so different. I do love quilts so your first card is very clever, love the colours you chose. Your second card looks amazing with that vibrant sparkly blue. Christmas cards are just made to have sparkle on them xx
