Do you ever send out Thanksgiving cards?
I've been having Hubby do all of the shopping lately and I was going to put "Thanksgiving cards" on the list, then I thought, wait - I bet Scout still has photos he printed from way back when.
I dragged out these truly tacky notecards from my stash, asked him if I could purchase some of his work, and got to craftin'. It was a good way to spend an hour or so. (I've made cards before where I purchased plain craft cards and envelopes, but I already had these so it was more of an immediate craft!)
Inside the card I am going to write a Thanksgiving sentiment.
The full, the true Thanksgiving
Comes from the heart.
~J.A. Shedd
Forever on Thanksgiving Day
The heart will find the pathway home.
~Wilbur D. Nesbit
All that we behold is full of blessings. ~William Wordsworth
O Lord that lends me life,
Lend me a heart replete with thankfulness.
~William Shakespeare
Tuesday - Sweet and Tangy Pork Chops, masheds, skillet cabbage
Wednesday - Shrimp Tacos, chips and guacamole
Thursday - Stuffed Pepper Soup, garlic toast
Friday - Mom and Dad out - Happy 54th Birthday to me!
Saturday - (tentative) Mom and Dad take our new baby out for a spin:
Sunday - Pork Roast, new potatoes, carrots, rolls
Dessert this week is my birthday cake.
After I pasted the photo on the card, I trimmed around it for an exact fit.

Sending out Thanksgiving cards is a really thoughtful gesture. You really made them special by making your own. They turned out beautiful. Scout takes such awesome pictures.
PS. You inspired me to do a little meal planning. I made lasagna, enough for two nights. Then I froze extra homemade sauce for spaghetti this week. I used ground chicken breast instead of beef and saved a bunch since it was on sale. Thanks for inspiring me, Gina!!
