Love the little pilgrim man and woman, so glad that your friend let you used them for this. Just very sweet. I like the lettering you have used and the flowers are of course beautiful. Thanks for the good Thanksgiving wishes and the same for you and yours. Good luck in the contest ;) deb

    Thank you so much for your very kind review. I loved the pilgrims too. The kid was 8 years old when she did the painting.

Very nicely done Cloe, and thanks so much for the wonderful greeting. Your blending on the flowers has worked very well and the drawing is just adorable. Shirley

    Thanks Shirley. I appreciate your generous and kind review. The drawing isn't mine but was part of a child's painting given to me two years ago by a 8 year old. I transferred it to the card with the artists permission.

You get big points for creativity here. Love the little pilgrims you added. Even though they aren't perfect (yes, I know a child did them so that is fine), they add some whimsy to your piece of art. Also love how you did the text in a wreath format, like a Thanksgiving or Christmas wreath, reminding us of the holidays. Also the very nice photo of the flowers, reminding us of how God has graced us with his bounty here on Earth. Would make a really cute Thanksgiving card.

    Thank you so much for your very kind and generous review.
    You are right: the text and the brownish color underneath symbolise a wreath.

This is a cute card and just right for the holiday season and Thanksgiving as well.

I love the characters in the middle as they are ore cartoonish then they are like realy portraits. I love the flower arrangements in the background as they really contrast off of the couple in the foreground.

Thank you for sharing!

    Thank you so much for your friendly review. The 'cartoon' characters are transferred from a kids painting [8 years old] I received two years ago. I found them so cute that I decided to use them.

Just too too cute and very appropriate for the Holiday season that is approaching. Love their infectious smile. Thanks for sharing your talent Cleo.

Of coarse this deserves five stars! How considerate of you to thank everyone and to think of everyone at this time of year. I appreciate the fact that you took the time to make this for all the great artist here. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving as well.
