Thankful for You

Good morning and Happy Wednesday.
Today I was up early, headed out to pick up my grandsons to babysit them today, and when I got back, I got them situated with breakfast and once they finished, and went to play, I thought, hmm it is quiet and the other family members were still in bed, so I thought I would play a little my self.

Us crafters have to grab those few moments when we get them and run with them for crafting.lol
 It was a little cool and misty out this morning, so I thought I would make a fall card.

To create this card, I used the following Fun Stampers Journey products
Cocoa Card stock
Haystack Card stock
whip cream card stock
Tangerine fusion ink
cocoa ink
Oatmeal cookie ink
Journey twine natural
Rainbow drops
Winter build a scene die set
Mini bow die set
Journey glaze
Journey glue
Platinum die cutting machine

Creating early is a great way to start the day.
