I have some blog candy ~ details at the end of my post!!

I created a mini book for my second Thankful project.  I saw something similar at CKC Kansas City and created my own on my Gypsy.

Here is the file I created.  I have 4 Layers, one for each page in the book.  I used Locker Talk for the pages.  I used the Hide Contour feature to hide the hole punches and the window cut.

The last page is 12" long x 7" high, including 1 1/2" fold.  I lined up the rest of the pages staggered starting at the fold line.  The smallest page is 6 inches wide, the next page is 8 inches and the third page is 10 inches.

I used double sided paper all from the same collection.  I love these colors!!  I cut out the same words ("So Grateful", Freedom, Food, Family and Friends) from the tile project in yesterday's post.

I bound it together with a ribbon.  I might sneak this in with the blog candy....what do you think?!?

I am thankful that you stopped by our blog hop!!  I do have some blog candy that I am giving away.  There are just 2 things you need to do to be eligible, be or become a follower and leave me a comment with your favorite Thanksgiving memory.  I will pick one winner from today and yesterdays posts, so you can enter once each day.

Here is the Blog Candy!

My favorite Thanksgiving memory is gathering at our house every year before my mom died.  We always included our neighbors Art and Floris who did not have children and their family lived in another state.  They were a bonus set of grandparents to us kids!  Floris made the best home-made pumpkin pie in the world!!!  I miss her!

One last thing, I am pretty close to 300 (297 very early this morning) followers as I type this.  If I reach 300 by the end of the blog hop, I will be drawing a second winner for some yummy candy!!!
