Hello Everyone! If you just left Iva's blog then you are in the right spot. This blog hop has become more special to me as the days progressed. I always suggest to my fellow crafters to slow down and enjoy life. I tell no lie - I run like a chicken without a head most of the time. I really had to reflect about all the things to be thankful for.
So I decided to make a thankful box
for my family and friends for
