Thankful For You

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today.

Well, I think our summer weather is coming to an end. We had a frost last night and today even though the sun is out it's a bit cold outside. And even inside I had to turn the furnace up a couple of degrees. We usually keep it on 67° but today that's just not warm enough. It is mid November so I just need to adjust to the cooling temps (LOL)!!!

We just had new equipment sent to us from Verizon for our Fios service. The old set top box and DVR are being discontinued. I looked through the directions and honestly, I am not sure how to install the new boxes. I asked one of my neighbors who has helped us in the past. If he isn't able to come, I may have to pay for a Verizon installer to come out. Don't know why they would upgrade equipment and then expect the average person to be able to install it. 

Anyway, onto my card for today. This fun fold design I made using the contents of the Stampin' September Paper Pumpkin kit. It's all about Autumn card making and I think it's perfect for Thanksgiving cards. Everything I used on this card came in the kit except for the sentiments and the November phrase. 

The fold is titled an "inside out flip card". I found this tutorial on Tami White's Blog and used it for this card.

This photo shows the card inside. The November phrase is from a CottageCutz die and the stamped sentiment is from Divinity Designs.

This photo shows the front sentiment flipping over. Hence the reason for the title of the fun fold.
