Giving thanks


We don´t celebrate Thanksgiving here but I want to take the spirit of this month by counting my blessings too. I saw a similar idea somewhere on the web and I thought I could made my own "giving thanks" paper garland. All images I´m using here are from The graphics fairy.


You simply have to open PS or a software of your liking, place the image and sentiment (it reads "I give thanks for..." in Spanish) on the left side of your page so you have enough room to write down your blessing on the right, print the page, cut the paper in strips, make a loop and staple it, then take another piece and repeat ☺
There you have your pretty garland! I think it would be fun playing with different papers to make a colorful one...
Thank you for stopping by, have a nice day!

Hello my friend, long time no visit...it's been very busy here and it eats into my blog visiting :( This is a beautiful idea and project Ileana. We don't do Thanksgiving here either but I think it's a good idea to stop and contemplate all we have to be thankful for. Love this idea.
Big hugs xx
