Welcome to day 1 of the hop!  Today's featured set is "I am Thankful" and it includes this bold and beautiful turkey!  



The inside:


If you stopped by my blog yesterday, you might have read that I was going to share the FEATURED set all week.  For today's peek at "Works of Art" I used this stamp on the back and I will sign my name and date it.


There are so many gorgeous sentiments in this set that I decided to just use a sentiment for my next card.  I chose this gorgeous piece of DP that begs not to be covered up and added the sentiment on a Spellbinders Labels Four die cut.  This card is entered into the HYCCT1301C challenge at SCS to make a one or two layer card - FLAT is FABULOUS!


I hope you will hop on down the designer list to see all the gorgeous creations my teammates have come up with and don't forget to leave a comment for a chance to win today's release!

  10. Angie, your turkey card is so pretty. I love the colors and layout that you used. You are so good to do the inside. I am terrible about that. 99% of my cards have nothing inside. So much of it stuck to the outside. LOL. That paper that you used on your second card is just gorgeous. I love the colors and design. I can so see not covering it up. I hope you have a blessed day today!

  21. Beautiful work on your cards! You made the turky more real than I could. I had the elementary school turkey on the brain! I very much want to play along with the HYCCT challenges, but just haven't had the time. I'm going to try and make time.
