Hello, Stampers! It was so much fun seeing the great cards that were submitted to our last sketch challenge. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did! We are starting a new color challenge today and you really need to play along! Let’s see what you can do with this pretty combination. We are Always Thankful for your participation! It’s so easy to play along, too! The only requirement we have is you stamp your card with a older but still loved stamp. Doesn’t that sound like fun?!
This is a super busy time for me so I am not able to blog very much. I know you will be patient with me when you read to the end of the post today! (hint, hint!)
Anyway… I just barely got this card done in time to share it with you, but here it is!
Thanksgiving is one of those holidays that I truly appreciate. What a great idea to set aside one day during the year where you make the time to be with those you love! This stamp set, Always Thankful, is one that truly speaks to me and has kept its position on my stamp shelf since it retired a few years ago.

Love these colors together and how you used a vintage stamp with the new SU products. Really a wonderful thanksgiving card! Have a great time with your family and can’t wait to see what card inspiration you come back with!
Gorgeous card, Debbie! Love the brick wall effect! I had a friend who mentioned that Thanksgiving was one of the holidays where being grateful for family and friends was paramount and gifts were not expected. I try to remember now not to mix it with Christmas. It should stand on its own. Your card is so lovely and I am Always Thankful to call you my sister!
I love seeing all the great SU samples every day. They are very inspiring. Thanks for the chance to win some fun products. I especially like the snowflakes.
I enjoy seeing your creations and they give me Lots of Inspiration! I enjoy using all kinds of Stampin Up products so its difficult to pin down just one.
Love the card, the brick wall embossing folder is a great addition. Great minds think alike. I saw another card from the RRCB that used the same stamp set. Loved them both. I am always thankful for my Savior first and foremost.
Oh my gosh I love that card! As usual you always pick just the perfect colors, but then how could you go wrong with the selection of excellent colors SU has! I am Thankful for so many things, God ,family and friends are what come to my mind first
Beautiful card, Debbe! Love the color combo. Thanks for the inspiration. I am thankful for the variety of Textured Impressions Embossing Folders from SU. It makes that perfect touch for a card with little effort and wonderful results. Enjoy the season gathering with family.
Wonderful card with the texture, layering, die cuts, and ribbon. Love how you can compose such beautiful cards! I am thankful for my Savior and for my blessed family!

Hi Debbie: This is truly a beautiful card to celebrate a special “thankful day” I am so thankful for my family, children, grandchildren & great grandchildren. We have a close big family with lots of nieces, nephews, great nieces & nephews and now working on great great nieces & nephews,
The stamp set used is beautiful, so sorry it is retired. I did not have a chance to get this stamp set. My most favorite stamp sets are Lovely as a Tree & Thought & Prayers.

We may have used the same stamp set but boy did you do justice to this image! I love the bricks in the background. It is no wonder all of your cards are so beautiful – if you can do this in a short amount of time! PS – I love the enamel dots – I wish SU! would do more of those to go along with the candy dots. And no – do not enter me in your blog candy drawing. I just saw the enamel dots and love them!
