Color Throwdown, Turkey Style..... and a Cards challenge too!


Hello blog friends!  Won't you join me for turkey dinner?  OK, so it's a little early yet for thanksgiving dinner, BUT the girls at the Color Throwdown dished up the PERFECT plate of colors to give a boost to my Cards blog challenge place card design.




This incredibly proud turkey is from a turn of the century (1903!) reference guide and was shared by the talented  Cathe Holden last November.


Here we all are nestled among the harvest wreath.


Thanks so much for coming by today.  I am thankful for so many blessings in my life and you all are one of them.

Supplies:
Paper: Papertrey Ink, DCWV, Georgia Pacific
Ink: colorbox

other: pinking shears, button, tea dyed lace

Those turkeys, your placecards, and your festive autumnal staging are all music to my eyes!!! These ROCK! I had been wanting to do Turkey Day placecards for years, but these far outshine anything that I had in my head. :>

Congrats on your EBKS win!:>:> Loved your T.P. flower!

Great place cards. Love the dimension and the off-beat style. Definitely not your average place card.

Congrats on your win!

A little birdy told us it's your birthday - so happy birthday! Must be weird having a stranger saying that, but I do hope you have fun! Love your card and the subtle print of that big bird!
