Time to Play

I love Thanksgiving!!..... I get 4 days off and............ I love to eat, among other things that I am thankful for!! 

I also got  a chance to play and make some gifts.  Here is a simple card I made to give as gifts.  I made 60 of these cards to make 10 gift sets of 6.  I figured everyone needs Thank you notes at this time of year.  I got the idea from Stamp TV for this card Click here to watch video
