PaperBlooms thankful /thanks challenge

happy wednesday :) well a bittersweet day   the week is almost over its a fun crafty day and sadly an end to the paperblooms challenge place.  its been so much fun being on leahs design team. i was lucky enough to be chosen for her original DT and then blessed by being able to stay on thru its run.
leah has another exciting  endeavor though , digital stamps . they can be purchased over at sweet n sassy stamps. she has some really sweet images so be sure to go check them out :) ... ( her etsy shop will remain open so be sure to bookmark that for your crocheted embellies :) )
 the challenge set for the week is thankful or thanks.. how fitting to end this way :) i am so thankful for the opportunity leah has given me. shes a real sweetheart :)    thank you leah :)

 for this last project i thought not only would i use her crocheted cuties  id also use my favorite digi stamp of hers.. ok ok each time i use one it becomes my fave:)   but seriously this really IS my favorite one.
i also used my cricut and george ( rectangles) and  jasmine ( thanks and corners) cartridges.
i colored in the image with sakura gel pens and marvy  stamp markers. on the snail shell i added paper glaze and for  the b/g paper i used a SU stamp  .
i added kaiser kraft pearls and martha stewart doily lace trim punch. i also used a tad bit of colorbox fluid chalk. thanks so much for hanging out here with me a little bit i hope you stop on by the PB blog play one last time and give some blog love :) and wish leah and  the other dt girls  ,carla, christi and rose  luck and fun :)  have a happy rest of day! xx shelly
