November Key Ingredients Now Available!
I’ve been looking forward to the release of the November Key Ingredients for a long time! I love the rich colors and designs in the Basic Grey Indian Summer collection and we had lots of fun pairing embellishments with this kit! If you’re one of our Key Ingredients subscribers then you’ve probably already received your kit…just one of the benefits of becoming a subscriber! I issued a challenge to the Baker’s Dozen girls and today we’re sharing our creations using the November 20th Key Ingredients kit, available at the TE Store today! Once you receive your Key Ingredients kit, we’d love to have you play right along with us so here’s the challenge:
Focus: With Thanksgiving right around the 
corner, we’d love to see your Thanksgiving themed creations. Do you have a favorite recipe or tradition? Do you plan to create a special setting for your Thanksgiving table? Do you send cards to friends and family to let them know you’re thankful?
This year we’re sharing Thanksgiving with lots of family! We’ll have the Cook’s (my parents & 2 sisters), the VanBruggen’s (Jon & I), the Sheffield’s (my mom’s sister, husband, 2 kids), and the Brett’s (another of my mom’s sisters and her husband). So we’re trying out something new this year. Each family was challenged to create a “Blessing Bowl”…a place where family members could write what they’re thankful for and drop it in the bowl to be read around the dinner table on Thanksgiving. So today I’m sharing the Blessing Bowl that I made for Jon and I to use. I used an acrylic paint can along with Mod Podge to cover it with skeleton leaves. The Mod Podge dries
clear so it was perfect for this project! I stamped the word Blessings onto a Spellbinders tag and tied it around the pail to finish it off. I also made a matching card to give to Jon on Thanksgiving. I’m always telling him how thankful I am for him, but there’s just something to be said about receiving a hand-written note with those words inside! I used a cloud template and So Saffron ink to create the background and then I stamped the silhouette image from Celebrate Life over the top. I wanted to use today’s TESC92 sketch for the card so I cut the stamped panel into three parts and adhered them onto the Birchtone layer.
And here’s a picture of all of the contents included in the November 20th Key Ingredients Kit! We’re excited to offer the Basic Grey Indian Summer collection of patterned paper along with coordinating cardstock, ribbon, Kaisercraft rhinestones, and an assortment of skeleton leaves!
