Thanksgiving…
Ahhh, the smells…
Ohhh, the hugs from loved ones…
Uggh, how we feel after stuffing ourselves with too much turkey!
These are all wonderful things, but sharing what we are thankful for is what binds us together. I am thankful for my VERY loving and supportive family and friends, a career that I love with great passion and healthy loved ones all around me. I truly feel blessed.
I think that many of us would answer family, friends, health and/or career to the question: “What are you thankful for?” But what about those “silly” things that we’d rather not live without, and are essentially thankful for? I am “silly” thankful for:
- Starbucks
- comfy bed
- my computer
- pens/paper
- 80′s music
Today I thought I’d share a Thanksgiving ensemble that consists of a card, a napkin holder and a place card:
Creating ensembles are easy…just use the same products on each project. You can keep the same design throughout or mix it up. Keeping the same color combination will help each piece complement the other.
Here are some Thanksgiving card sentiment ideas:
• Thankful For You
• Bountiful Blessings
• Eternally Thankful
• Love and Gratitude
• With Gratitude
• You Are Appreciated
• Many Thanks
Today, Thursday and Friday I’ll be posting additional projects with a “thankful” theme on my blog. But before you hop, I’d love to know one “silly” thing that you are thankful for this year. I’ll pick one winner to receive these stamps by Unity Stamp Co. All comments must be received by midnight (MST) on Thursday, Nov. 25.
One lucky winner will take home these Itty Bitty stamps by Unity Stamp Co!
I hope you have a happy Thanksgiving and get stuffed with food and love!

Just one silly thankful? I’m grateful for the outrageously crazy dog we rescued – a Sharpei/yellow lab mix who, most of the time, thinks she’s a cat. We don’t know where she came from, of course, but we cook up ideas every time she does the “cat thing!” Best dog we’ve ever had!
I am grateful for the ‘forest’ full of trees in my yard. They look pretty with snow on them (and that’s the only good thing about snow – which I’m not grateful for!)
I’m thankful for in my world, a lot of good friends. They remember me funny, know me lucky and believe in me successful
I’m thankful for my fuzzy ladybug slippers that keep my feet warm and make my kids laugh.
I am thankful for a yummy ice cream sundae
Hmm – I guess my “silly thing” would be adhesive pearls from my crafting stash – they make me happy, and dimension and bling, and are easy to use!
I am thankful for my warm flannel pajamas for those colds days when I am in the mood to get comfy and relax on the couch with a good magazine or book.
Iced Caps at Tim Hortons is one thing I’m thankful for. Rather silly I think :O)
As I sit here with a stuffed up head, I find that I am extremely grateful for extra strong tissues — thank you, Puffs!
I’m thankful for the funny things my 3 year old says – today: “that’s right, daddy sir!”
I’m thankful for my new popcorn popper. No more burning a bag of popcorn in the microwave!
I am thankful for my family and friends, my job and for the opportunity to win these Unity stamps- Happy Thanksgiving!
I am thankful for a warm water bed to crawl into on a cold winter’s night!!!! thanks for the chance to win!!!
I’m thankful for our wood stove. My favorite thing to do after the dinner dishes are done is to curl up in the chair next to the fire with a warm drink and a book. I usually fall asleep because its so toasty and cozy.
What so nice card and decorations
We are very thankfull to be in our new house and love it so much
