Hi Everyone!
Ok, I'm crazy pressed for time this week, and I feel the holidays bearing down on me. Isn't that crazy? That I would feel that kind of pressure on November 9th?? Anyhoo, I got my first Thanksgiving card in the mail over the weekend, (Who are these ridiculous, on top of it people???!) and I realized I have been working on so many things for design deadlines, that I haven't made any cards for my friends and family yet. Sigh. Decided for sanity's sake, I would try one layer, clean and simple design for their Thanksgiving cards.
I have to say, my heart sang just a bit, when I finished this. I seriously *love* this no big deal card. Thank you DRS Designs for these two fabulous stamps, Small Silhouette Leaf and Brilliant Fall Greeting.
All I did was stamp that leaf in multiple colors and add the sentiment. Oh yeah, and round one corner.
And this is it with the new Delightful November Greeting. I feel my sanity returning just looking at these.
Go ahead, I give you permission to make a bunch of CAS cards for the holidays. Easy as pumpkin pie :)
Keep calm and carry on my friends!
