To kick off November, today’s Color Me Monday is all about Thanksgiving—gratitude for our blessings, appreciation for the earth and the miracle of the harvest. I’ve started playing with some ideas for table settings that bring the outdoors in to really connect these ideas together, and here’s the result! The combination is a rich blend of Goldrush, Desert Sand, Cocoa and Chocolate (YES, you can use Cocoa and Chocolate together!). These colors are perfect for leaf stamps. Just stamp the images on your choice of coordinating cardstocks, trim out a treeful of them, and scatter about your holiday table, and voila: it’s a gorgeous and easy table setting your family is going to love.
