I chose to give thanks by making and sharing a couple of thank you cards! The first one I made for a friend who invited me to an Affair of Tables. The theme of their table was coffee and tea so I used the images from Morning Cup to make a background set and stamped it on the background Naturals Ivory cardstock. I added a little extra color with the color spritzer and my Crumb Cake marker. I also sponged a bit of Crumb Cake and Real Red to antique the look. The button is from the Big Designer Button group called Candy Cane. So cool to have some big button options!
I created the second card to include in a set of cards to be given as a gift. I wanted something rather simple and quick. I used the Elizabeth stamp set and the sentiment is from the set called Just Believe. After adding the tied ribbon, my card was complete!
Thanks for taking a peek and be sure to check out the other Give Thanks challenges by the other Blogger's Challenge gals. AND please play along!!!!

so cute. Love the red.
Both a just wonderful. I love the background of your Tea card (so fun) and how elegant your second card looks.
Hi Lisa...I always smile when I read the title of your blog, "Babbling" is not a word we hear as often as we should. I love your cards, and hope you enjoy the holiday. We, in Canada, had our day in October.
This are both great! Love the vintage look of the first and the clean and simple elegance of the second. {SMILES}
The top card is cute, fun images! Love the vintage feel of your bottoem card.
Wonderfully done Lisa! I really like the background paper that you've created for your first card! So sweet! Happy Thanksgiving! :D
Love both the cards you created, really love the first one with the Cranberry. Happy Thanksgiving!
Great cards...love the elegance of the second one!
I love them both Lisa! I really like the antique-ing on the first one, and the simplicity of the second one.
What a fantastic take on the Thanks theme- I love the idea of the first card with the tea images- huge tea drinker here...your second card is very elegant. TFS
How cute that Tea Time card is.....so simple, but just right! And, of course, since I love that fabulous Elizabeth, I love that card as well. It's such a beautiful image and doesn't need any dressing up! Thanks so much for sharing. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Couldn't agree more with everyone on your cards. I especially love the one using the Eliabeth stamp. So gonna steal that one of these days. xoxo ~J
Love both of these cards. The first image is great, especially with the sentiment.
I love your cards! I think that this was the best challenge, just to get us to say "thank you"! The second card looks super-easy yet super-elegant! TFS! (Of course, I love the first one -- that's easily one of my favorite stamp sets!).
Both really great cards Lisa! Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving and sending you hugss and long undies!
I really love the idea of the first card. How fun. Also sounds like a fun event! Great job on both cards.
Fantastic cards, Lisa! Love the patterned paper you created with the Morning Cup set--looks great.
