Life has been terribly busy lately; the small amount of creative time I've had has gone towards projects that, for one reason or another, I am unable to show you at this time. This past week I realized that I've done nothing for my blog and I'd better get busy!

Here is one of several cards I'm sending to friends that I don't get to see often, but I want to let them know how thankful I am for their friendship. They're very simple cards, as I tried to keep the focus on the coloring I did on the image. This pumpkin (image from The Angel Company) was colored using chalks and a blender pen. I love this technique; it's more muted than coloring with markers and much more forgiving.

Thanksgiving is this week and I get to spend it with my family for the first time in years. I am very thankful for that!

Give thanks - loudly and often!
