Whew! What a whirlwind this past weekend has been! I have been a taxi driver for much of it and hiding in the basement during our recent storms here in Chicago. Fortunately, we had no damage and our area was not affected greatly. There are parts of Illinois that were not so lucky. Prayers are needed to help these people get their lives back together.
I have a Crafty Secret's card to share with you today. This little gal is from the Feeling Yucky set. I colored her with my Copic Markers. I used the Spellbinders' Resplendent Rectangle's die set. I added subtle coloring while the die was still in place and Tim Holtz Distress Ink.
I added rhinestones to the corners to bring out the red.
I bought mini silverware pieces awhile back and was excited to use the spoon on this card. I mixed red paint and glossy accents to emulate cough syrup. ;)
I colored her tray and cut it out by hand. I popped it up with a dimensional circles.
Since Thanksgiving is around the corner and it is the time of year to reflect on what you are thankful for, I wanted to take this time to thank all of you.
Thank you for visiting me and leaving such sweet comments.
I am a total slacker in the comment department.
I have intentions of leaving comments and them somehow time gets away from me.
The day just isn't long enough lately.....
I apologize for that. I will try and be better!
So what do you have to do to win ALL of this?
Just leave a comment telling me what you are most thankful for.
If you pin my giveaway to Pinterest, your personal blog, or post about it on Facebook, come back and leave a second, third, or fourth comment to be entered two, three, or four times depending on how many places you post it. :)
If you are new to my blog and become a follower, leave a second comment letting me know, so you can be entered a second time also!
I will pick ONE winner on Friday, November 22nd at 10PM CST.
Good luck and have a great week!!

I am thankful for being able to live in a town where I can go outside any time of day or night and feel safe to run at midnight if I choose. I grew up in Flint and being so close to that still yet being able to do this, well, darned lucky I think.

I am thankful for my family. I lost a family member earlier this year, and just kinda opens my eyes to how suddenly things change.

Good to hear that you made it through them storms safely. My thoughts and prayers go out to all those who weren't so lucky. With the holidays upon us, all them could use our prayers and support. My heart goes out to each and everyone of the storm victims.
I am very thankful of my family and of my beloved husband of 45 years. No matter how good or how bad, I feel that I truly have been blessed in so many ways.

I just became a follower of your blog. I have some time this A.M. so thought I would check in. Sure glad I did.
In my secod comment, I have to say I am thankful for a God that is forgiving and loving. I have done some stupid things in my life and am thankful that that is all behind me and it's not on a list to hold me back.
Wow! What a great give away. I love your nurse card. As a nurse, I rarely see one I enjoy, but this one would make me smile.
Most thankful for - would have be that I am healthy and have healthy children....hope it lasts a lifetime.
Thanks, Michele.
I have to comment a third tome as I am grateful that there is an eternal life in Christ. My
mother in law died last month and I am so happy she is free of her illness and is in heaven happy and praising her Lord. Amen!!! And, probably keeping score in a basketball game with two of her grandchildren!!!
I love your card -- genius to pop up the tray. Those extra steps you take always make your cards so special and beautiful. I'm thankful you are so generous in sharing your work. I find it very inspiring.
I am also grateful that my husband's cancer surgery went well.
Your card is so cute! I love the dimension and the spoon coated in "cough syrup", too cute! I am thankful for my family and especially my father, he is 90 years old and in good health and goes walking every day using his walker.
Thank you for sharing your lovely creations!

Fab card...super cute image. Love the cough syrup detail. Long time follower of your blog. I'm most thankful for my wonderful family...only a few more weeks and my daughter will be home from University too...can't wait!
I am thankful for all the health care providers, doctors, nurses, and everyone working to hopefully find a cure for cancer. My oldest daughter was fighting breast cancer 4 years ago and thankfully doing well. This past two months my youngest daughter has started her fight. 1 out of every 7 women will get breast cancer. I know one day we will find a cure. Until then I will keep them all in my prayers.

Almost 12 years ago my mother was dying from adnoid cystic cancer (a very rare type) for Christmas she asked all 7 of her children what would they want if we had three wishes. I was the only one that asked for something for someone else besides myself. My first wish was to be able to have the money to send my two daughters to college, my second was to find a good church home (and i have since then found one and I am an active member), and my third was to take her cancer away. My first two wishes were granted one by my mother herself and she also made sure I graduated from college. The last I am sad to report wasnt granted but I am thankful that God gave me 7 extra years with my mother that the doctors told us we were never to have and I am thankful for everything she has taught me that makes me the wonderful teacher I am and the teacher she never got to be. Shortly before my mother passed I found out that her dream was to be a teacher but she had never went after her dream after having her children. I am just so undoubtably thankful that I can carry on her legacy.
That card is really cute! I really like your cough syrup idea. :o)

Love your card and creative ideas! I am thankful for education, I can read, share ideas and am blessed to work at a school where I witness young kids experiencing the joy of learning every day.
This is the cutest get well card i've ever seen, Michele! You always come up with the most clever designs. I'm most thankful that my dear husband is out of the hospital and back home with me! Hugs!

And now I have to tell you how STINKIN' CUTE THAT CARD IS!!! LOVE IT!
This card is ADORABLE! I also have to say that I am most Thankful for the fact that I just took a breath. October 23 I was in a Coma, I have two children 18 and 10. My son is going to graduate and I certainly want to see that happen, my daughter is just amazing and I want to see her grow up. None of us are granted tomorrow and I wish more people didn't take that for granted. You could not have told me a couple of weeks ago that I would spend 20 hours in a coma, not even know who I was. I know I am blessed to have more time on this earth. Hug your kids everyday and tell them you love them, you may not have another chance.
I am thankful for family. I am a follower of your blog.
Thanks
