Thanksgiving Rhyme

I thought the Color Challenge  - Yellow, Red and Brown - would be the easiest week of the current Gingersnap Creations On the Farm theme but I think I over thought it and my mojo left the building!

I started off with a turkey cut out which I inked and stamped, that's when I hit the brick wall, what on earth was I going to do with it.

I spent hours looking for inspiration until eventually I came across a children's rhyme, eureka! ...






The base is a kraft envelope
Turkey was cut with my Silhouette - Wild Honey, Barn Door, Frayed Burlap & Vintage Photo DI's. Overstamped with a leaf stamp from Stampin Up French Foliage.
Pumpkin image is from The Graphics Fairy


Thanks for taking a peek and Happy Thanksgiving!

Ha It's brilliant Suze, I love the Turkey and the rhyme and the black pocket works as a great contrast on the kraft, :0) Gay xxx
