Eat More Beef!

Good afternoon everyone!  Another Sunday has wound it's way around to us again.  It sure seems like the days are going by faster and faster this year!

Today starts us off with another challenge over at Doodle Dragon Studios Challenge Blog!  The new challenge (that continues for 2 weeks) is all about Thanksgiving!  Use any DDS image and give thanks!  Link up your creation over on the challenge blog and you could be our next winner!  :O)

I used one of the cute turkeys  and added the sentiment to his sign, as it comes blank.  I used the current sketch over at Mercy's.  She always has the best stitching on her cards, so I got the bright idea that's what I was going to do too.  BAD idea!  I cannot sew for anything...look at it!  Yikes!  I'm not sure how everyone keeps the stitches all nice and even.  Just color me jealous!  Anywho...I used Copics, DP by Basic Grey, Bazzill card stock, Janome sew mini, button, ribbon & twine from stash.



I'd like to take a second to welcome Ted to the DT...so glad you're part of the team!  Jump over and visit him today!  Come on over and join us for the DDS challenge!

Lelia, each time I see this card, a huge ol' grin appears on my face. So clever and I love how his face shows he's dead-serious! :) Thanks for the warm welcome!

Your stitching gives your card character, girlfriend! I tried it once, and mine didn't turn out well. Well, I didn't harm myself so I guess it was a win. ;) Love this card! :)
