Thanks...

I am SO thankful for time to work on my projects today! Thankful that my hard working hubby decided to not work 7 days a week this Harvest. Thankful for time with my little girl in our woman cave. Thankful for the beautiful (although HOT) weather. I am thankful for so many things today. It makes me smile.

I am trying to get a head start on my holiday cards. I thought that I'd put something together for Thanksgiving today. I think I like the way it turned out. I put LOTS and LOTS of layers of stamps on this one. I LOVE doing that.

 I totally stole this layout from a card I saw on Pinterest a few days ago. Good ole' Pinterest! I absolutely HAD to put one together. I love all the different layers. To me, you can't have too many layers! I used a couple of my new stamp sets for this one. Vintage Verses for the little note inside the envelope. Pretty Petites for a few of the squares on the banner. Along with a few from the 2012 - 2013 catalog. I also used the new designer brads from the Spring catalog. Of course I gave it an antiqued look. This is a generic card that can be used for any occasion.

The inside of the card is decorated too! I used my old favorite  Fresh Vintage for the outside trim in coordinating colors from the front. LOVE this look!
