Default LSC246 - Flights of Gratitude - 11/13/09

Where has the year gone? Is it quite possible that we are a scare TWO WEEKS away from Thanksgiving?? Seems like we were just here!!

In thinking about today's LSC I was thinking about the time of year and how I like to reflect on the things for which I am thankful. Hence, today's challenge. It is really quite simple, so I hope you are going to like it.

There are really only TWO rules for today's challenge. The first is to create a "thank you" or "Thanksgiving" type of card. The second (which is the kind of odd part - not sure where it came from, but I decided to use it) is to include a bird of some sort on your card somewhere ... a stamped image, a diecut ... whatever you may have. Don't forget, that since Thanksgiving is coming TURKEYS also qualify as birds!! If you DON'T have a bird of any kind, please feel free to just make a "thankful" type of card. Everyone is welcome because I am also grateful for all of YOU!! I have the greatest friends here, and I am so lucky to have you as friends, confidants and fellow stamp lovers!!

Have a wonderful day!!

Here is my sample:

Thankful 24-7

Keyword: LSC246

LSC246 Gallery

Uploading: Remember the keyword is without spaces. Use a comma between keywords with a space after each comma.

If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!

1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.
2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.
3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You’re done!

Thanks for including the plain thank-you rather than Thanksgiving option . Makes it easier for me to make a card I can use - whenever I get there!

Woooooooooooohoooooooooo!!
I must agree with Karen re: the 'interesting' challenge!

I defintely "need" some 'thankful' cards ... but the birdie element had me thinking! At last, here it is! And with many thanks, Wendy!

Thankful!

Fun challenge. I got out an old retired SU set of birds for this. Thanks for the chance to be inspired by something old and something new. Here's my Seasonal Birds Quilt card.

I hope this isn't cheating, but I made this card for a shoebox swap several weeks ago and never uploaded it. I believe it qualifies for today's challenge. Here's my card -- Shoe Box Thanksgiving.
