I hope you are enjoying your day with family and friends and that you have much to be grateful for! I'm grateful for great card ideas like this one by Kimberly Wood, and my customers (who are my friends), and my sisters, and my parents, and my husband, and my great kids, and...

Wouldn't this sweet little turkey be perfect for a mantle, table, even place holder? He's so easy to make - I started with my turkey base from last year (see this post) and used ribbon instead of punches! He's so cute!
I used three inch pieces of pumpkin pie grosgrain, crushed curry dotted, and 5/8 inch chocolate chip grosgrain ribbons for his feathers. If I create him again, I'll be staggering them more, but for a first attempt, I think he's pretty cute!

I wanted to share a little decoration for our holiday table (though it will probably stay on our counter instead!). He is just so cute! What's even better, he is (almost) just what I imagined!!!
I used chocolate chip, really rust, more mustard, pumpkin pie (for his beak), and riding hood red (for his waddle - is that what it is called?). I also used the scallop punch, wide, large and small oval punches, 1 inch circle punch, and the boho blossoms punch (for his waddle and beak). I punched six scallops, and folded them in half. I attached two sets of three punches and then created the tail feathers. I then created a turkey sandwich (pun intended!) by putting a set of scallops on top, then the 1 inch circle, then the tail feathers, then the other scallop set. Finally, since the scallops would not stand on their own, I cut a three
inch strip of chocolate chip and folded it in half. Then I attached it
to the middle scallops to provide stability.
I hope this Thanksgiving finds you well and with the best of company! I know I am thankful for all my stamping friends, my family, my children, and all the blessings in my life. Take care and enjoy the day!
Wish shoe stampin' fun!
