Slimline Evergreen Christmas

I'm so happy I had a last minute chance

to work on a card.

I didn't think I'd be able to find 

the time.  This past week was

a bit of a whirlwind.  

But I wouldn't change it for anything.

I love having the kids home and making

meals for them and just hanging out.  

I will submit this card to the challenge at:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

The stamp sets featured in this card are:

Stampin Up:  Hope & Peace

Decorated with Happiness 

I was actually up at 2am working 

on this card, because of leg pain, I couldn't sleep.

Then lo and behold I realized it was a tad cold

in the house.  Indeed, the furnace was not working.

Well good thing we were still up.  Hubby turned it 

off and on Monday he will call to see about repairs. 

Talk about thanksgiving blessings.  Happy it held 

out for us until last night, and also happy, it did

not blow up or cause a gas leak.  So many things to be 

thankful for.  We still have electricity so we are using

our little oil heater and the weather in WI has been 

very mild the past few days.  So that is all a huge blessing.

Hopefully the bill won't be too bad and they can fix 

the old furnace without any other issues.  

Always something, right?  

So back to the card, I finished it this afternoon.

apparently my eyesight is not very good in the wee

hours, because it is a bit off centered.  I'm thinking those

branches would look nice with some puffy paint added to them.  

And a tad bit of wink of stella to the bulbs, always an after thought

or two, when I already snap the pictures.  

Here is the pumpkin pie I made.  I get such a kick out of the napkins  

I also made these little turkey cookies for my darlings.  

I then put one in each of the boxes I decorated for them. 

I also served a  strawberry, spinach salad, and 

everyone like it. Wonderful, and so festive.  Although the 

dressing was not so grand.  Good thing I just left it off to the side.  

I hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving.
