Hey y'all, it's time for a new challenge from SUO Challenges!
And here is our theme:
This means anything that is handmade and holiday themed, so Thanksgiving and Christmas cards (though there are lots of other holidays too if you want to do something different) OR any other handmade project. I stared blankly at all my Christmas stamps for a while, ate some chocolate, and then I made this:
Place cards for Thanksgiving dinner!
I made nine altogether with the Mini Alphabet dies and Sweet Days of Autumn DSP. I didn't center up the names on all of the place cards; instead, I moved them around a bit to show off the animals on each one. I cut an 8.5x11 piece of cardstock into quarters (so, card front size) and scored at 2 3/4" on the long side to make the place cards. Easy peasey and you can dress them up however you want.
We also have some other handmade table decorations for Thanksgiving:
Way back in the day, Stampin' Up! had fabric for a hot minute, and I found a tutorial for making fabric pumpkins so that was a Thanksgiving Day craft one year when we lived in England, about 13 years ago I think. The turkey is made from felt with an artificial flower for his tail feathers, and of course googley eyes.
Okay, I've got to get Ryan off to school and go get my car's oil changed. Cheers!
