Grateful, Thankful, Blessed

There's always something to love about each and every month, right?  I feel like November should be at the top of everyone's list, though, because this month should be centered around Thanksgiving, Gratitude, and Love.  Whether you're grateful for time off of work, big family reunions, Friendsgivings, or a burned up turkey, there's something for everyone to feel some type of gratitude for.

Webster's Dictionary defines gratitude as: the state of being grateful : THANKFULNESS.  I want to take that a step farther and add "blessed".  As a woman of Faith, it is very important to me to include that term, too.  I am blessed.  When I sit down and journal at night, I think of things that I'm grateful for, say "thanks", and it fills my heart up with blessings and reminds me how loved I am before I even lay my head down on my pillow.

I'd like to share these three simple words with you in the form of a free printableGrab it now!

I created a very simple, but powerful, piece that you can print off and frame to remind you and yours of what we love about this month (and maybe throughout the entire year, too!)


These three words are simply laid out on a plain white background for you to print off, cut out, and frame!  (I did include the cut marks, so it'll very easily be trimmed down to an 8" x 10" size that fits a standard 8" x 10" frame!)

Here's how it looks in my living room:


I also included a secondary option that you can print in color!  I made the word "blessed" with a gold foil texture and it is stunning!


If this is too plain and simple for you, you can easily jazz it up a bit, too!  Here, I embellished my print with some fancy paper (I used my Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper) along with a little twine (Basic Black Solid Baker's Twine) and some bling (Rhinestone Basic Jewels).


I really hope you like this and that it becomes a reminder for you this Thanksgiving Season, and maybe even throughout the rest of the year!  Share pics with me on Facebook or Instagram (tag @sparkle.n.fizz) to show how you displayed your print!  Enjoy!

Top 10 Tuesday: 12 Days of Christmas Movies

Well, so instead of a Top 10, I'm changing it to a Top 12!  Because I love The Twelve Days of Christmas and I love Christmas movies and why not combine both together to make it 12 Days of Christmas Movies!?  I suppose we each all have our own opinions as to what Christmas Movies are *must-haves* on our Watch List, but I would like to think there are some that just generally required, by public agreement.  So, here's my Top 12 Days of Christmas Movies List, complete with a FREE Printable so you can make this a Holiday Bucket List Item, if you'd like!  I'd love to hear if your favorite movie made the cut or not! OH---and one more thing---these movies are certainly not listed in an specific order, they are more in the order in which I may or may not have already watched them... (#SorryNotSorry!) 12.  The Santa Clause (1994) When this movie first came out, I was totally entranced by the interpretation of the North Pole, courtesy of Disney Magic, that I almost bel

Tutorial Tuesday: Strawberry Pie

I am a little bit sad that Sale-A-Bration 2018 is coming to a close this month.  Stampin' Up! has had some amazing products to give away this year and I have seen some really creative uses for extending their life! Erica Cerwin of Pink Buckaroo Designs is no exception!  I saw her use the  Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder  and make a pie card!  It was so stinking cute, that I just had to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) it and share my interpretation with my Papercrafting Passionista Friends!  PS: The Basket Weave Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder is a FREE Sale-A-Bration item!!!  So you can get this adorable embossing folder with a $100 purchase (it's a part of the Blossoming Basket Bundle, which is a $100 Reward) and  the embossing folder is carrying over to the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog!  So you'll be a step ahead of the new products!  Wow! Here's what I used to make this sweet card: Supply List: Fruit Basket Bun

Tutorial Tuesday: Fold Over Gift Box

Happy Tuesday, Everyone!  I hope that your week is going well!  Can you believe that August is half-way over??  I have seen lots of Social Media posts about kids already going back to school; the kids in my area go back next week!  Eek!  I imagine that means that there's a lot of last minute shopping, meal-planning, and organization happening for many households.  (Or all households, really.  I mean, everyone has shopping, meal-planning, and organization to do!) Well, I'd like to share with you a quick and easy 3D project that you may be able to utilize for this busy Back-to-School Rush!  I shared it with a group of ladies a couple weeks ago at a Crop Event and it was huge hit! This multi-purpose Gift Box is super versatile!  You can use it if you want to present your kiddo's new teacher with a little summin'-summin' to start the year off, as a special way to present a home-baked cookie treat to a loved one in their lunchbox, or if you need a vessel to hold some
