Thankful Times

I am excited about Thanksgiving this year!  I'm thankful for my family being together, for traditions, for turkey and trimmings, and a long nap after dinner!
I’m carving (ha) out more time for creating over the holidays.  I took some inspiration from my friend Kari McKnight Holbrook who *only used supplies she had on hand for projects. (*Ok, mostly). 
 
The Thankful banner I made using an old Frank Lloyd Wright calendar, letter stencils, metallic copper pen and a Sharpie, a hole punch and some ribbon.  I used complimentary ribbon to make little bows and added vintage buttons. 



I am thankful for so many, many things.  Family, friends, adventure, gel medium…

How about you?

  1. Beautiful banner (I love banners). I'm thankful for my studio (slowly being organized and cleaned) and all my art supplies - hoping to use what I have before buying more.
