Thanksgiving Turkey Blossom Box

GOBBLE GOBBLE!!! Happy Thanksgiving to ALL!!! This year's turkey may have to be put on hold but I just could not resist doing it on paper for you :) I brought out my Blossom Box Die #123127 and just thought it would be perfect for a turkey's body. Then came the head and the feathers :)

The Head was made using the following:

- Scallop Oval Punch (for the turkey's face)

- 3/4" Square Punch (for the top hat)

- Window Punch (for the hat's rim)

- 1/2" Circle Punch (for the turkey's eye balls)

- Owl Punch (use the medium circles for turkey's black iris)

- Petite Pennants Builder Punch (for the turkey's neck)

- Blossom Petals Builder Punch (smallest petal for the turkey's beak)

- Heart to Heart punch (use the big heart for the Turkey waddle, use red glitter paper to add some highlight)

The Feathers: Use 4 colors of Cardstock and punch all four petals each)

- Blossom Petals Builder Punch (use the biggest petals for the tail feathers and Smallest, Medium, Large for the wings)

- Emboss the tail feathers to give more texture

- Use Glue Gun to adhere your feathers and turkey head on the box

Well I think that's it!!! Enjoy making your turkey box!!! It's sooo cute and attractive on your Thanksgiving Table :) I hope this was not too late to post but you can always use it next year.

I always thank the LORD for having my blog friends and followers around. You all keep me inspired to create and go on.

Thanksgiving Favors

Hi! It's me again! Here is part 2 of the Thanksgiving Table accessories. To give the guest a little something to take home, I made these cute favors. Yes, the pillow boxes. You may find them in any office supply store. They're called "Clear Binding Cover" for presentation books or meeting materials. They come in 25 sheets (very reasonably priced), they're safer too. One sheet will make 4 pillow boxes. The best thing about the plastic is that it's easy to handle and holds its folds. It's not flimsy. I just adhered it with sticky tape to hold it strong.
DSP: Hawaii Papaya (I had a lot of scraps and it still expresses the autumn colors)
You'll be needing these tools:

Other Notes: The ribbons used may be found in craft stores. Buy a whole bulk of chocolate covered raisins in Cosco, it's cheaper and chocolates are shinier. They won't stick onto the plastic. I'm not too happy about chocolates sticking. Check out napkin ring instructions.

Thanksgiving Dinner Accessories - Napkin Ring

We just had Thanksgiving dinner in our church and I had to come up with a quick and easy napkin ring. It was so simple it just got compliments on our table.

Cardstock: Kiwi Kiss

You may need the following tools to make this:

Other Notes: The ribbon I used may be found in a craft store. It's wine red. It really just brought out the kiwi kiss. If you can use real napkins, it'll be fabulous specially on white plates!
