Card #73 for 2025

Dear blog readers, it's official, I'm starting 

my thanksgiving cards today, and this is the

Second one so far- my goal-God willing is to

 make at least 10 Thanksgiving cards 

I will enter this card in the challenge at:

Hand Stamped Sentiments

The stamps I used in this card are:

Samping Up:  Birds of a feather

Stampabilities: Happy Thanksgiving 

The Boyds Collection: Over the river 

I can't believe this! I flipped the die-cut leaves

with the attached dsp and ribbon upside down.  No 

wonder I ran out of room for my little turkery.. sigh

talk about turkey's  my goodness I feel goofy, looking at 

it I was like oh no, I've been so tired lately and my eyes 

a bit weak, but to make that mistake I couldn't fix it so I just 

went with it.. the wide strip is at the bottom.  shucks.

So everything had to be shifted a little higher to fit.

Below is a picture of Patriot.  Apparently he got tired 

of me and my frustration so he's snoozing.  I like to think

it's the Christmas music that lulled him to snoozeville,

The verse I chose for this card is:

Psalm 6:2 KJV

Have mercy upon me, O Lord; for I am weak: O Lord, heal me; for my bones are vexed.

Card #72 for 2025

Dear blog readers,

I will enter this card in the challenge at:

Try a Sketch on Tuesday

The stamp sets I used are:

Stampin up:  Amber Autumn 

Sweet N Sassy: Harvest Blessings

I really over complicated this sketch, trying

to get that middle piece, and just like a puzzle with

the last piece it came together.  all I needed to do 

was glue the long rectangles in the corner together,

then interlock them.  easy peasy,  that's after many attemps

to get them to "weave, or layer" correctly.  

Sometimes it takes me a while to do so something so simple. 

This is the first of the next few days of Thanksgiving cards 

in the making.  I'm excited to get about 10 or so done so I can

start my Christmas cards again.. I love making those.  

Our memorial garden flag came, so hubby put it out-front.

May we all be as bold with confidence and courage in 

Christ as Charlie Kirk was.  

Who knew our pup's name would have even 

more significance then just being born on

the 4th of July.  Below is a picture of our

little Patriot.  15 months old now.

The verse I chose for this card is:

Psalm 147:3KJV

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
