5 for 5 Thanksgiving Day 4 - Turkey

Welcome to Day 4 of our 5 for 5 Thanksgiving Blog Event. Today our theme is "Turkey". We are all sharing a project where we used a turkey. Each day our 5 Designers will post a Thanksgiving Inspired Project based on a theme. Some of us are offering prizes, so be sure to visit all the links below and leave comments. And join us tomorrow for our last day.

For my card today I used a Unity Stamp Company Stamp set called Build a Turkey. It's one of my favorites. I stamped the turkey and feathers in several different colors of Ranger Archival ink and color them in with Prismcolor pencils and blended with my new Prismacolor blender marker -love it!! The thought bubble is from Lawn Fawn and the sentiment is from a Unity Itty Bitty called Gobble Gobble. I adhered the turkey and sentiment with foam tape. A straightforward card that I made in about an hour tonight!! Thanks for stopping by and be sure to check out all the designers blogs below for more Thanksgiving Inspiration.

For my card today made my own subway art panel with sentiments and a couple of filler graphics. The sentiments come from so many companies like Unity, Papertrey Ink, Lawn Fawn, Impression Obsession, Hero Arts, Altenew, Denami Designs and Mama Elephant. I used Ranger Archival inks and my MISTI to help me line things up. I adhered the panel to a piece of DCWV colored cork.
