I've been in full blown Christmas Craft mode which is why this card challenge from Sketch N Scrap was perfect. It was just the inspiration I needed to create a few more cards.  Check out the sketch: My Take: The card was created using: Recollections: O Christmas Tree paper stack Christmas Cricut Cartridge: Poinsettia Phrases Cricut Cartridge: Sentiment Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy Holidays,

Thanksgiving is definitely the time of year where we are reminded that we should be thankful. We are so blessed, with so much. When I begin to really think about everything I have, that I've been given, been able to experience, my home, my family, my friends - I am truly humbled. I don't deserve any of it, yet the Lord has seen fit to bless me beyond expectation.  This year has brought many changes in our lives. We recently made a move to Coeur d'Alene, Id and the kids are going to a new school. We have actually been homeschooling for the past two years so I was able to develop a special appreciation for what the teachers in our school do everyday. So, when we were given the opportunity to bless our teachers with a luncheon during parent/teacher conference week I decided to make some goodies to add a little thank you to their lunch.  This came at a perfect time for Fantabulous Cricut blog's challenge this week. The challenge was to create a thank you project.

We love to play and have a good time. Below are some layouts depicting all kinds of fun!
