It’s Almost Thanksgiving!

Posted on | November 25, 2008 | 10 Comments |

Be Merry But I have a Christmas card to share {::SMILES}. I guess I’m just into making Thanksgiving stuff and this year it’ll just be us three (well four if you count how much I’ve been eating lately), so nothing fancy. It’s been a while since we had a small Thanksgiving dinner, I think it’ll be a nice change.

My work week is short too, my last day is today for the week. M has a little party at school tomorrow and I’ll be bringing in some green bean casserole. In the afternoon… dunno, maybe do some shopping but we’ll see. I’m debating whether or not to go Friday. I’ve always gone, not to the super super early one but just go shopping in general. I never have a problem. Yes it’s a bit more busy but I’ve never had to fight for anything with anybody. Maybe because I don’t go to store that has those popular black Friday deals? I need to go to Hobby Lobby because they have a (Copic) marker sale and then to PB kids to pick something up for M. Then around the corner I’d LOVE to get me some Cheese Cake Factory something… but that’s prob. going to be packed unless I show up at 2 or 3 p.m. he he… hmmm… I’m drooling already and on a regular day, I’m not a pastry person. There use to be a French bakery there, but dang they closed!!! Made me mad!!

Anyhow, here’s my card using some American Craft goodness that I bought at my lss a few weeks ago. The snowflake was punched using a Martha Stewart punch and the be merry is an SU stamp. The ribbon I bought from this lady who’s selling a bunch of her stuff. I got a box full of misc. ribbons for $5. Sweet deal for a ribbon freak like me… I swear I have enough but I keep buying ribbons! I punched the snowflake from that stripe paper. I used dimensionals to give it a lift. I thought I’d give this idea a try and it’s not that bad looking.

Alright, have a great one and hope most of you have a short week this week if you’re a working gal like me. Laters!

    That is one awesome deal and one beautiful card! And I don’t think you can really have enough ribbon… there is always room for more right!?! Just wanted to tell you too that I created a little award (inspiration award) and left it for you on my blog :) you are totally an inspiration – i love your style – your flair and the great stories that you share :) its been so great to email you (sorry I have been a bad blogging friend recently) and I am so happy to have met you through blogland – and we TOTALLY have to get together before baby number 2 comes to play because then it might be harder to organize something… maybe we could do something after the holidays? anyhoo Savitri – sending you and your family all best wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
    much love always,
    Sankari :)

    That a cutie of a card. Thanks for sharing. Go ahead and shop on Friday, but you might be alright at the Cheesecake Factory depending on how many people you are with – just you and M, and you should be fine. Happy Thanksgiving. Thanks again for my wonderful package. Love it.

    Your card is so pretty Savitri! I love the dp against the kraft cardstock and the black checked ribbon.

    I have more than enough ribbon too but I can’t seem to stop buying more.
