ThankFall...



Inspired by this fortnights BE Inspired at The Alley Way Stamps, this gorgeous turkey was created by paper piecing the turkey body and leaves from It's Fall About You, with the sentiment created from Jibber Jabber and Alphabet Soup.  I love how his beak perfectly fitted into one of the leaf patterns from the MME paper.  I'm joining in this months challenges at Trendy Twine with Thankful Orange Truffle and Ribbon Carousel Fall Spirit.  

For the Moxie Fab World Paper Crafting Tips & Tricks Stitching Challenge here's a little tip - remember to do a little dot at the start and end of each faux stitch dash to make it look more like the real thing.  

Inspired by this weeks Unscripted Sketch and playing along with Simon Says Stamp Thanksgiving / Thank You too!

  4. Absolute crafty cleverness! Love how your brain works! Talk about versatility from a stamp set...leaves for his tail & beak.

    I actually zoomed in on your photo when I read your faux stitching tip (which, by the way - thanks) because I was sure you were messin' with my eyes...it looks SO real.

    So glad that you chose our sketch to showcase this mighty fine example of creativity!
