Harvest Princess


Hiya guys!!! Did you guys see my previous post with some cute new Saturated Canary rubber at
 Little Darlings!? If not go check it out and I might convince you to join the hop AS THEIR IS YUMMY prizes through it.
Well it's time for another Saturated Canary challenge and I finally get to share my card featuring Harvest Princess available in digi at the SC Online shop HERE. Perfect timing since in the states we celebrate Thanksgiving today. I kept the card a bit more simple and clean.
I colored her with Spectrum Noir markers and added some Acrylic to the scene but only to the background, my girl is ALL marker.


I wanted to share her alone before placing her on my card and YEAH leave it to me to realize after the card was done that I had forgotten to color the basket and petals to the apples lol!


I also wanted to insert a little something special that I found online. This is a Native American Thanksgiving Prayer. You can't read it well since I had to down size to fit the card but this is what it says.

Thanksgiving Prayer
We return thanks to our mother, the earth, which sustains us.
We return thanks to the rivers and streams, which supply us with water.
We return thanks to all herbs, which furnish medicines for the cure of our diseases.
We return thanks to the moon and stars, which have given to us their light when the sun was gone.
We return thanks to the sun, that has looked upon the earth with a beneficent eye.
Lastly, we return thanks to the Great Spirit, in whom is embodied all goodness, and who directs all things for the good of her children.

My paper is a combo of Bobunny and LD Chocolate covered cherry.


and that's it for me today and I hope you enjoyed my card. It almost walked out of my house when my sister came over. You see all my sisters are BIG BIG fans of the Native American culture. I remember when they will go to every pow wow they could.  (Guess who would have to braid their hair, rolling eyes lol) 
I had a good relaxing time coloring her and reminiscing :)

I'm wishing all my followers a Happy Thanksgiving If you celebrate it. If not I still want you to know that I'm thankful for your time and encouragement that you leave me via email, facebook, blogger etc...

I have a busy day with the family and once again I'm hosting and have lots to cook lol! Two turkeys, ham and lots lots more......oh my feet hurt just to think about it.
Wish me luck that nothing gets burn((crossing fingers)) 

LOVE YA GUYS!!!
