Thanksgiving Layout using your cricut!

Hello. everyone! Today I have a Thanksgiving layout. I always find them difficult to do, but boy are they necessary for your scrapbook!




This double page layout is made mostly with core'dinations cardstock. I just love that stuff!



I used the Designer Calendar cricut cartridge to cut my title(pg. 51 in your handbook) cut at
4 1/2". The turkey is from the My Community cricut cartridge(pg. 32 in your handbook) cut at 3 3/4". I also sprayed the title with glimmer mist to give it a little bit extra.



Those cute Pilgrims and Indians are from the My World cricut cartridge(pg. 31 in your handbook) cut at 4 1/4".



To get the turqoise look of the rhinestones, I colored clear rhinestones with a aqua colored copic marker. That is one of the good things about those markers! You can customize your embellishments!


Thank you so much for stopping by today! Have a safe and fun Thanksgiving!

What a fabulous LO Melanie ... I love the pilgrams and indians ... it's time I took a second look at the images on the "My World" cart, I see I've over-looked some great ones. Love the papers you've used too ... and as always, your hand doodling really makes it distinctive. Beautiful Job!
Hugz,
