More Thanksgiving 2024

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

It's been a bit busy here since the Thanksgiving holiday and I haven't posted for over a week. But I have been creating and today I am showing one of the last cards I made for that holiday. 

We had a wonderful celebration with my in-laws and all my side dishes, and the turkey turned out really well. Everyone was well satisfied with what I served including my pumpkin pie for dessert. 

We shared the side dishes with my next-door neighbor. She just had a hip replacement and wasn't able to cook a meal. Her daughter came to town on Wednesday evening, so she was only able to make the turkey. We had plenty so sharing what I made wasn't a problem at all. 

Now onto my card for today. This one I made using the contents of the September Paper Pumpkin Kit from Stampin' Up. Instead of using the kit instructions, I made an alternate faux step fold card. 

To create the fun fold, I cut early espresso cardstock 8 1/2” X 5 1/2”. Then I scored on the long side, 3″, 6″, 7 1/4″, and folded (mountain-valley).

For the top piece, I use the wood card base from the kit and cut it to a 4″ X 8″ size. The leaves are part of the kit. I stamped my Thanksgiving sentiment to complete the card front. 

This photo shows the card inside. I sent this one off to my son and daughter-in-law in California. 

Well, that's it for me for this post. So, until next time....God bless.
