I made this for the monthly Dirty Dozen/Dirty Dozen Alumni challenge. This month's challenge, hosted by Sharon Harnist, is to make a thankful card or gift, Thanksgiving placecard or treat holder, or Thanksgiving home decor item. And it must include a heart somewhere. Thanks for the fun challenge, Sharon!
I'll be giving my card to my mother who is hosting our family's Thanksgiving dinner this year. My heart element is the metal button in the upper left. I used the Top Note die with an oval punched out of the middle to create a frame for my main image (from "Give Thanks" by Our Daily Bread Designs). The frame is raised up on 1/4" foam squares.
Paper: SU Chocolate Chip, Canson watercolor paper, Memory Box "Twiggy" designer paper

Accessories: K&Co metal heart, burlap string from Pink Hedgehog Paper Crafts, Offray brown twill, Martha Stewart border punch, SU Top Note Sizzix die, aqua painter, paper piercer, Chocolate Chip marker

WOW! What a gorgeous card we have here. Love the shape your cut out for the main panel. Great dp. Love your image and coloring of it. Your stitching and paper piercing is super. Love the little heart button with the twine that you added. This is just a very pretty card! TFS :0)
