Card Pressies & Sharing Happy Thanksgiving!

I want to wish everyone a very HAPPY THANKGIVING!  I hope you are able to enjoy a wonderful day with family and friends, feasting on delicious Thanksgiving fare, and maybe even enjoying a football game or other games with your loved ones!  My family will certainly be glued to the television, as members of the Seattle Seahawk 12th Man, while we watch our favorite team battle the San Francisco 49ers!

Next, I want to share a couple of cards that we received from my cardmaking buddies and friends, as well as family!  This first card was made and sent by my Mom to wish all of us a great day with the family. . .such a warm and cute little house amongst the fall leaves. It looks so welcoming, like it invites us to go right in and share a meal with those inside.  Thank you, Mom. . .love your card!

My next card is from my cardmaking buddy, Sandy.  It is the cutest fuzzy bear peeking out from behind a huge pumpkin.  He is just darling!  This wonderful card is filled with gorgeous colors as Sandy shows off her newly established coloring skills using Stampin' Up's Blendabilities!  Way to go, Sandy!  To top it all off, the multi-colored fall leaves have lots of glittery bling.  Unfortunately, the picture does not due it justice.  I just love Sandy's card, and I'm so glad it is gracing my mantel, along with Mom's little house!

The final card I'm going to share is from my Stampin' Up cardmaking mentor, Liz Thayer.  She has done it again; the card is a stunner!  Liz used the Bigz die, Autumn Accents, with the lovely fall dsp from the SU 2014 Holiday catalog: Color Me Autumn.  Of course, it is a Liz card, so it must some glitter bling added to the leaves and acorn.  I am so thankful for your card Liz!
