Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi Everyone!

Just popping in super quick and I mean quick we are off to my son's first college baseball game - SOOOO excited for him :)

I wanted to share a card I made for The kraft Journal - Discover something new challenge. I had been really wanting to try the Chalkboard technique so I took this opportunity to try it and well I like it! It's fun, forgiving and looks nice!

So here is a card that I actually will use at the Thanksgiving table as a little decoration :)
That stamp was one I won from over at my buddies Karen!
