Thanksgiving is my FAVORITE Holiday!  It has all the great things about a holiday without the added craziness of shopping.  I host 25 of my family members for Thanksgiving and, although it’s a little crazy, I look forward to it all year!  The fall makes me happy too!  So, I incorporated the craziness for the background, the “Give Thanks for all Things” sentiment and the bling of the pinecone into this Thankful Card.  Please know how thankful I am for all of you!  It is for you and because of you that I do this every day.  Your comments are truly heartwarming to me!  I know the internet is a huge place and you can spend your time with anyone so I am always honored that you choose to visit my blog!  Thank you! 😀
