And now for my project. The theme for this month is Thankful. Our American friends celebrate their fantastic (with Black Friday ) Holiday, but as an Israeli I decided just to be thankful for my life. With all ups and downs, it's still great life after all. So I made this altered canvas with this title : 
Cherish love and Love your life (and be thankful for both).
This is a    Mixed Media project with a lot of  masking, mediums, mists, paper collaging and then some stamping too. 


The butterflies are stamped over vellum and heat embossed with pastel embossing powders, then hand cut and glued to the canvas.






The leaves on the bottom and over the black masked images  are stamped too (and much more background stamps, but after all those mediums and mists  and glazes, it's just hardly seen.  And if you ask for the meaning of this mask- this is an evolution of my life.
Now go to all other designer blogs and comment. You don't want to miss this gorgeous and thankful inspiration of our outstanding designers. You don't want to miss a chance to win our  GC too. So it's just WIN- WIN for you!
