NOV10VSNF~Fri. November 12th~11 PM EST~ Thankful for....
Title: Thankful for...
Hostess: Lela, Serenity_Stamper
Keyword: NOV10VSNF
Day/Date: Friday, November 12th
Time: 11:00pm EST
When I think of clouds, I think of goodness and lightness and love and heaven... and then I think of how amazingly grateful I am. I am grateful for the people in my life, grateful for my stamps and my stamping community here on SCS, and grateful that I can spend time being creative.
My challenge celebrates Gratitude. Simply, the challenge is to make a "Thank You" card. Please take creative liberty to go where you go with this -- there are as many unique things and people to be thankful for as there are stampers playing in this challenge (and more!).
It's a great time here in the U.S. for this challenge, since the Thanksgiving holiday is right around the corner. However, I love Gratitude so much that I think it's a great theme for any time of year in any part of the world.
The dessert option, if you're in the mood for something yummy, is to personalize your card somehow. My entry is the card that I am making for the loved ones in my life this Thanksgiving. I am personalizing each one. The card I loaded here is for my dear friend Betsy.
Maybe your personalization will include words... maybe it will include a little image that reminds you of your special someone.
I have also included a card that my sister (DorisOnTheLake) made. I can't even begin to tell you how grateful I am for my sister. I already sent the personalized version of my card to her, letting her know how much I love her!
My hope is that you have fun, celebrate Gratitude, and BE YOURSELF!
Thank you for the honor and opportunity to be hostess tonight. And thank you for your participation on SCS!
Blessings,
Lela

Lela, I think you're the last for tonight. Which is a good thing since I'm getting a stiff neck from sitting at the computer. LOL! I have a sample to upload in just a minute...

Love this...it is always good to be reminded to be thankful as some days life gets so busy we don't take time to do more than mutter a simple "thank you" to those we love!

You could always make more than one, if you are so inspired, and then upload for this challenge your favorite. Add the others to your gallery so we can all see! ;)

It's been fun ladies but I am getting pretty sleepy over here in the mid-west. Had a great night and lots of fun. See everyone tomorrow! Sleep well...

serenity - a sunrise in Montana
this is a thank you card for my daughter and her family that we visited last month in Montana. The pic is the view from her back porch, such a beautiful sun rise! The mini petal card in the upper left corner contains the Thank you inchee from Cute by the Inch stamp set.
I have a profile pic but not sure why it does not show up here????
