For this challenge, I decided to use this month's digital stamps: BUGAUTCRITT02 AUTUMN CRITTER STACK 02 and the color combination suggested by Connie.


I had this stepping card die from Sizzix since a while and I finally got to use it. I added some papers from my CTMH old stash and recollections cardstock.


This stepping card has plenty of dimension and spaces for embellishments:


I added some of Connie's Crafty Card epoxy stickers and buttons. The Thank You die cut is from the Teresa Collins' set that came with my Cut n' Boss.


I added a left over piece of gold specialty cardstock to ground the sentiment, cut also from specialty cardstock.

I hope you enjoyed this card and decide to join us at Connie's.

Many blessings in All Saints Day,

Vicky Tovar

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Here is my project: I  used again our sponsor's SVG file: Mini rounded tote TEMPLATE/SVG to prepare for all the goody bags I will make for this thanksgiving:


This are the supplies I used:


To create the descending sun, I used:


Some further picks from my sparkling project:


I dry embossed the treat box with Anna Griffing's and from another company for the wheat on the handles. I added fall ribbon leaves, a shippie (Creative Embellishments) for the fall leave and one for the acorn, which I distressed with TH distressing inks, as shown on a previous picture. And for accenting this glitter paper printed flower some gold sequins.

To finish, I added a bow from 3 Girls Jam ribbon.
