STAMPlorations are hopping again as they are celebrating their 3rd Annual STAMPlorations Giving Thanks Blog Hop & Wishlist Linky Party. I am thankful to be part of their amazing DT, and here are my creations ...
It is an honour to be among so many talented designers, the full linky list of which will be at the end of my post. Each designer showcases some of the stamps from STAMPlorations Thanksgiving Release. A real time for celebration!

For now, I'm briefly going back to my cards.
The first one was made with a background of Infusions Coloured Stains, A Bit Jaded & Golden Sands, with the Typographia Something To Be Thankful For sentiment being heat embossed in Early Espresso. I finished off with a strip of gold foiling and a couple of pearls.
My second card uses a purple and turquoise brusho background with stamping in Elegant Eggplant. The sentiment I used is the Typographia Gratitude Is A Blossom, and the florals are stamped using the Blissful Blossoms.
