out with those warm Autumn colors. Thanks so much.

Well, Thank You Lynette, Pam, and Marlee! This was the first time I had made these. I think the next time I do these cards I am going to use a white cotton instead of the paper that the tutorial said to use....that way it can be more permanent.

Ok I am doing the Happy Dance! Because I got wonderful , prettiful, awesome Thanksgiving Cards. From Debbie(Buzzin Bee), Pam B of Arizona and Denise from WV. Thank You Sisters for the cards as they all are so wonderful. Pam thank you for the Poem and the Fresh Cranberyy sauce recipe.
Denise like the turkey card. Gluing it on a scrabble , where you set your letters on in front of you. I glued it and it looked so cute.
And Debbie did you draw the cute bee hive with a mailbox outside of it. A little bee flying around a sunflower.
So thank you my sisters this has been a great swap.....

What a darling card Netty, loved the ribbon and leaves on the front
of your card and the cute leaf punches and leaves all over the inside
and got a laugh out of the "vintage boy" riding the turkey! What a
fun card.

I must apologize to everyone, you see... I thought we had to send them out no later than today the 17th. But when I got to the post-office at 9:50 am... it was closed for the day if it was even open. I am so sorry. The cards won't go out until Monday morning now. I DO hope you get them by Thanksgiving. :(

Whoohoo! Opened my mailbox and had three cards from Farmgirl Sisters . Teresa thank you so much for the card. I dont know what paper you used on the front but it is so pretty. Linda thank you so much for the card you sent me. I love all the extra little cards on it and the leave which i love. And the poem. Pretty. Marlene thank you so much for the wonderful card and the peach green tea (thats gone).It felt funny typing my own name. I love fall because of the colors.
Thank you all for the wonderful cards you sent me. It just made my day.

Marlee,
I recieved my wonderful card from you today. Thank you so much.
Have a Ragin' Cajun Thanksgiving and don't eat too much Turducken!
For those who are not Louisiana folks, turducken is a turkey stuffed with a duck stuffed with a chicken. Enjoy!

Whoohoo! All cards are on the way. I made mine from scratch, so hope all enjoy them. Got a little strapped for money so had to use what I had.
But I loved making them!
