I had to search high and low to find some brads. There was a time I had so many of them I never thought I would run low. Oh, Santa....
My card all tied up and open:
I finally found some brads and used those throughout, did a bit of embossing of leaves and words, buttons, chipboard and embellies were from my stash, and the pumpkins were stamped and colored with SU markers.
Last night on the news they had a report regarding all the squirrels in a local park. People are being asked not to feed them. These squirrels are not shy one bit as they will follow you hoping for a handout. The news went on to show people feeding them, not from a distance, but where the squirrels come right to your hand, put out their little arms (?) to take the food. They don't then snatch it and run, they wait hoping for more. Evidently, a few peeps have been bitten on the fingers offering them food. Thus, with the now "Don't Feed the Squirrels" I thought they should be thankful for what they have received. If only they knew they should have run and tucked that morsel away for later.
There is no favorite Thanksgiving song this week although I do prefer that Christmas songs begin after Thanksgiving. Instead of a song, my favorite clip from Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving where Charlie Brown, Patti and Linus discuss their plans.
I guess I am a bit partial to anything regarding Peanuts. Not only was Charles Schultz from Minnesota but many moons ago when I was a senior in high school I played Lucy in a Charlie Brown musical.

is like wrapping a present and not giving it."
