Making Thanksgiving Cards
I got my Thanksgiving cards done on time this year, whoopee! In a fit of stamping frenzy, I made a bunch one morning. Sometimes the inspiration is just there, and with the pretty new papers I got from Impression Obsession, and a score at a private sale, I had plenty. I got out some leafy …
Happy Thanksgiving!

With the holiday coming next week, preparations here are well underway. Decorating, cooking and sharing time with friends and family is the heart of the holiday. With over five years of posts, sometimes it is good to revisit past posts with holiday ideas. In looking back, I realized I've not done a post on stuffing/dressing. …
