Gobble Gobble

Good morning! Here we are at Tuesday. What does that mean to you? Anything in particular happen on Tuesdays in your world that you'd like to share?  Me?  Tuesday is my Bible study night (you saw the journal I use yesterday) but other than that it should be a pretty laid back day...yay!

So, I had some time to make anything I wanted and I wanted to make a card with this super cute Quirky Turkey set from Doodle Pantry.  I don't think I have to tell you how much I adore the "Quirky" line over at DP, do I? And, in case you can't tell I like the sketch from Card Patterns, too.  Really, this card is pretty simple.  I used patterned papers from the QT set and some stitched ribbon that was in my stash to put this together.  The only thing you can't really see is that I put a piece of the orange patterned paper on the inside too.  I wasn't sure that it would work for it to be written on for the note inside but I tried it on a scrap...with black pen it is good!  A little faux stitching just ties it all together so well!

What is really neat about this Quirky Turkey set is that it is FREE with any purchase over at Doodle Pantry until October 24th!  Pretty neato, huh?

Not much more to tell ya today other than...have a great day!  Oh, and if you are interested I have some Taylored Expressions and Gina K Designs stamps listed for sale on my Stamp Sets for Sale page.  Just click above to see them!

Thought of the day:  When you are down to nothing God is up to something.  So true...just when I feel like I can't go on God shows me something new and I am renewed by His faithfulness.  What an amazing God I serve!

Adorable card, Lorie! Just arrived back from Austria last night and I am so tired. This is my last day off of work so tomorrow it's back to the job. I am so thankful to have one most days. Austria was lovely and we had a nice visit with Steve. Looking forward to getting back into the swing of things I hope very soon! Hugs to you!

Yep...that faux stitching really adds to the design to finish it off. I think that turkey look like he is going to jump right off the card! :)
