A Time to Be Grateful!

"Let us be grateful to people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom." Marcel Proust

November is a month that reminds us to be thankful...grateful for family, friends, house and home, jobs and life.

Designer Keri Babbit has a special layout today celebrating just that! We loved the hand tied bow and of course the Epiphany Crafts accents!

So Grateful
Designer: Keri Babbit


Epiphany Crafts Supplies:



Epiphany Crafts Shape Studio Round 14
Epiphany Crafts Vintage Settings Clubhouse
Epiphany Crafts Frayed Flowers Cherry

Other Supplies:
Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam in Bordeaux
Tattered Angels Glimmer Glaze in Northern Lights
Tattered Angels Chalkboard Glimmer Mist in Inchworm
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Pearl
Pink Paislee: patterned paper, alphabets, circle stickers, diecuts, twine
Punch: EK Success




Tips & Techniques:


1. Use Glimmer Glam or Glaze first to add detail to the accents.

2. Add Glimmer Mist afterwards, for a great resist effect.
3. Paint the felt flowers with Glimmer Glam, for a richer, sparkly look.
4. For perfectly coordinated accents with a Grateful theme, use Epiphany Tools and punches to create various embellishments for your page, all out of the same sheet of paper!

    my favorite handmade ornament was the angels made by wrapping yarn around cradboard about a million times, then tying off arms and legs and heads. I know we made a BUNCH growing up !

    Love the layout and Love your blog................to answer the question:
    No I have not made handmade ornaments for the tree in years b/c I am too busy paper crafting and making cards for the Holidays!
