Countdown to Thanksgiving

Hellooooooo! Waving Hi to everyone!

I'm over here working on my Thanksgiving cards - getting the assembly line going and hoping to finish them today. Tuesday I was felled by a headache OUCH and so yesterday was inspiration crunch time and today is "make it work" day (don't you love Tim Gunn?!) teehee!

Here's a little sneak peek for you -


Won't you show me your cards too?! I'd love to see them!


Fun fun fun! Look at what I found! A little thanksgiving drawing of mine - I'm guessing I was in first grade??? Since it's approximately fifty years old, it can count as my Vintage Thingie Thursday too - or perhaps it's me that can count as the vintage thingie?! bwhahhahahhaha.


(It's all wrinkly and falling apart but I love it so!)

And I'm so happy I ran across this post this morning - now I know what I'm bringing for gifties for Thanksgiving dinner. Thank you Heather for sharing this darling craft with us.

    How precious that you've got that sweet drawing from when you were so young! My kids are very into drawing "hand turkeys" these days. I have them ALL over my house! They get into "Thanksgiving mode" and forget it, no scrap of paper is safe, it gets turned into a turkey in no time! Happy VTT and Happy (almost) Thanksgiving to you!

    You card may be wrinkly and falling apart, but still enough memories to keep.

    Thanks for visiting with me.
    Your drawing is just so precious! It's so funny the way we all drew trees the same way; they had a little hole and the leaves were always sprouting out of the top. The turkey is adorable.
