Hope everyone had a beautiful and blessed Canadian Thanksgiving! I love this time of year, the leaves are turning colour and I definitely feel the Autumn crisp in the air. This sweater weather brings out my appetite for some hearty stew, just throw all my favourite ingredients together, simmer for a few hours and voila you get some awesome comfort in a bowl!  Translating this into scrapbooking, I gathered my favourite ingredients- pattern paper, anything foiled, chipboard ephemera, felt fabric and some sequins.

Putting these ingredients together I feel like I have scrapped my heart onto this page.  I love making my own felt embellishments too, the felt cuts like butter when you run it through your metal die cutting machine!

 I hope this inspires you to do a little bit of crafty ‘cooking’ today!
