Season of Thanks

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. 

It was a beautiful Fall Day here in Pittsburgh with lots of sunshine. My hubby is slowly taking out his vegetable and flower gardens. He took out all of the sunflowers and marigolds. He still has all of his dahlias but a few more nights with frost and they will be done for this year. 

Today he picked the last of his banana peppers and took out the plants. He isn't giving up on the tomato plants yet. Although I am over all of it (LOL)!!! 

The basil is just about done and today I cut a bunch of it and made some pesto. I don't add the cheese so I can freeze it. I use basil, garlic and pistachios. The garlic is also from my hubby's garden.  

Now onto my card for today. This one I created for the color challenge #1069 on Splitcoaststampers. The trio of colors were pretty peacock, wild wheat and lost lagoon. Optional is anything goes. I chose ribbon for the option.

lost lagoon, wild wheat, pretty peacock

I created a double Z-fold Thanksgiving card. I have had this designer paper for a long time (since 2019) and have wanted to use it for a Fall or Thanksgiving card, and I finally did it.  It's from the Stampin' Up "Come to Gather" collection. The measurements for the fun fold I found on Julie's Stampin Spot.

The designer paper is the star of the show on this card. I cut a label for my sentiment added some ribbon and wild wheat glossy dots. The sentiment is from the Stampin' Up set "Season of Thanks". The pumpkin image is fussy cut from the designer paper.

On the inside panel I stamped wheat using wild wheat ink. I stamped off once to get a lighter image.
This sentiment is from The Ton Stamps. The "Round Pumpkins" set.

Well, that's it for me for this post. So, until next time.....God bless.
