First of all ~ my fun post for the day. The girls over on the design team for i{heart}papers (IHP), challenged each other to make a project related to Thanksgiving. I immediately thought of all the things I'm thankful for & the mini album idea came about.
I used the 8x8 paper stack by SEI called Poppy ~ it comes with 16 pieces of pattern paper, 16 pieces of foil pattern paper and 16 pieces of coordinating cardstock (which were all used for this project).
I typed out the wording on my computer for the title on the cover and the journaling blocks on each page. I then used my Nestabilities to cut them out (classic ovals, scallop ovals, and Labels one).
The pages are all very simple, but they highlight the most important element which is the photo.
Yes, I'm so thankful to have my furry companions!

I have the most amazing friends. I realize that not all my friends are pictured on this page (that would be impossible). However, those of you not in the picture (you know who you are) ~ I love you with all my heart!
I told you it was YUMMY!!!! My blog candy will run until Friday, November 21st at midnight (eastern time). You can add comments to any of my posts and post as much as you like. The candy will be sent directly from IHP after I've selected a winner. ONE RULE ~ you need to include an email or blog address with your post so I can get in touch with you. I'll post the winner on Saturday, November 22nd. Thanks for playing! Now go visit Loretta and Deb for their blog candy this week too ~ WOW! That's a lot of goodies ~ don't get a tummy ache!
OK ~ I'm finally done for today! Are you dizzy?
And, last but certainly not least ~ a very, very important page.
Supplies from IHP: SEI Poppy 8x8 paper stack; Nestabilities ~ ovals, scallop ovals, labels one; Bling on the cover!
So now ~ go check out all the other DT blogs and see what wonderful creations they have made for this season of Thankfulness! ALSO ~ Kate (the owner of IHP), has a coupon code on her blog today for the store. So make sure you visit her blog for that!
OK ~ I am not done!!! I saved a yummy treat for the last thing! It's my turn for blog candy this week for IHP ~ woohooo! AND... HERE IT IS!!!!
