I started working backwards this year on my holiday card making. I began creating my Christmas cards about a month before I even thought about Thanksgiving! To be fair, we do send out about 100 more Christmas cards than Thanksgiving, but it still doesn't seem right. Thanksgiving is important - at least in my eyes it is!
I couldn't resist using this really cute turkey from Papertrey Ink I picked up last week! Instead of stamping his feathers on paper, I decided to use felt. First I use the die and cut the base shape in Harvest Gold. Next I cut petal shapes with the rest of the colors and use the base shape as a guide when adhering the 'feathers'. He's just so stinking cute. I must find away to incorporate this little guy in with other Thanksgiving creations such as the menu or place cards.
