Happy Thanksgiving!

I wanted to take the time to wish all my friends, customers, and fellow stampers a Happy Thanksgiving!  And if you don't see this until tomorrow I hope you had a great day with lots of turkey and everything to go with it.

I have been too sick with bronchitis to do our normal Thanksgiving feast this year and even told my boys it would be best if they not come into the sick house. :)  We decided if we felt up to it we would just go out this year but then...we got a call from sweet friends telling us that they would be bringing our dinner by around 3:30.  Oh My Gosh...it was awesome!  So much tasty food and I didn't even have to cook it.  And the clean up was a snap.  Thank you Becky and Rick!

What I would like to share with you today is a card I made for my mother. She lives with us and her birthday was today.  It falls on Thanksgiving every so many years so the card I did for her today is a fall birthday card.  I used the Monday Mojo sketch.







The Mojo Monday sketch challenge is a great way to kick start your Mojo.  So if you sit down to make a card and the creative juices aren't flowing check it out.  It's also just a fun challenge each week!

Remember...it's just a sketch and you don't have to follow it exactly.  Always feel free to substitute if you don't have a specific shape.  The gallery includes lots of of cards for inspiration.  It's a fun place to stop each Monday.

I used the stamp set Gently Falling and the DSP Spice Cake.  Both can be found in the Holiday Mini and are two of my favorites.  If you don't have any of the Spice Cake paper yet treat yourself for Christmas.  You'll love it!



Now a sneak peek at the gift I made my mom for her birthday.   She has been wanting one of the Simply Adorned necklaces.  I've had it tucked away for ages and finally pulled it out this week.

Shop in my online store 24/7 in the comfort of your home.  Make sure you check out the Online Extravaganza going on now.  Lots of great Christmas deals for the crafter in you life.  This is also the place to check out my events schedule.  Pick a time to come stamp with me.  If you have questions please feel free to contact me.
