Thankful~Blessings~Grateful Challenge

 Our new challenge theme begins today at
Double D and it is

 THANKFUL - BLESSINGS - GRATEFUL

We have the colorful mood board for inspiration
but you can create anything as long as your stay within
the theme!


I purchased this fun Stampendous Autumn Truck stamp
a year or so ago and this is the first time it has seen ink.
I try to stay away from block stamps anymore but this one was so cute
I had to give in and get it!!
I have kitty cats and my hubby has an old truck
so this could be us on any given day except his truck is red and I have 2 more cats then shown!!
I colored it in with Copics and a stardust pen in a few places.
The papers are Echo Park Celebrate Autumn.

The sentiment worked perfect for our theme and is from a 
Penny Black Golden Delight stamp set.


Make sure to visit our Double D challenge blog and see all the pretty
creations from the team, and we always have a fun prize up for grabs,
go and check it out!!

Entering the following challenges:
Simon Says Wednesday .... Thanks/Thanksgiving
The Card Concept .... Clean and Layered Style, inspired by the colors and the pumpkins

Awww, this is super cute Diane, and I love how perfectly the image fits you and your dh. You've colored the image up perfectly. Sadly, we are down to our very last kitty. I am so torn between getting another dog and new kittens. Hubby says "NO"! Anyway, your card is precious.

Love that truck image and your sentiment is the most perfect one! That striped background paper gives me a Fall vibe--like the pretty foliage we get to see this time of year! Perfect!

When you hear the meaning behind the making of this card, it makes complete sense to me. Relly nice idea for your family. Wait, you have two more cats???

Darlene said...

OMG ... is that Greg's truck filled with all your kitties? LOL Great coloring on this fun image! How many 'cat' stamps do you have in your stash? LOL

such a fun image, I love the Autumn feel to it and the way you colored all the cats, we only have two and they keep me quite busy :)

What a cute stamp! I still love the wood block stamps even though they do take up more room. I know you just had the most fun with this! A year is not so long for a stamp to await ink in my room. I'm so bad!

So cute with all of the kitties adorning the truck. It does resemble Greg's truck, for sure. Love the striped paper and sentiment.
