My paper is PTI white, certainly celery, and the dsp is from the kit.

For the ribbon i layered 3 pieces and then tied a bow with the 4th ribbon that was in the kit! I added a button on top too. This ribbon is hard to make nice bows with:(

These flowers came in the kit too so i layered them and added a brad that was also in the kit. I put the flower on top of some leaves that were also in the kit.

So after i am done telling you about my card you can leave or continue reading to see what i am thankful for (it may get mushy, i am in one of those moods!)

Ok onto my thankfullness:) Here is a list (in no order) of things i am thankful for :)

My family...they have been there for me through everything i have been through in my life. I am thankful that my brats have grown up to be amazing adults and are making us all proud by being in school!! Love you guys! I am thankful that my sister and BIL give me a roof over my head and food in my tummy on a daily bases, or else i would be living in a cardboard box on the side of the road ;) I am thankful that my Brother and SIL are always there to vent too and support my descisions all the time. I am thankful that my dad watches Abby so she doesn't have to be alone for 8 hours while i am at work.

My Abby:) She is such a joy in my life and one of the best gifts i have ever gotten. She always knows how to put a smile on my face:)

My friends...(man this could get long, you can stop reading at anytime!) Devon, she is always supportive of whatever i choose to do (or not do), she always encourages me to do what i want to do, she is the reason i am making this blog post:) I love our heart to hearts, love ya hun!
Kristen..she is my voice of reason and my shopping buddy (she always knows what is going to look good on me before i even try it on!). I am thankful she has been there for me through some of the hardest times in my life!! I don't think i could have made it through without her!!
Crystal helped me get through hard times by being one of my funnest friends:) Our road trips, sing alongs, rockerarobics, etc.. :)
Randy, Josh and Chris...3 of the coolest drinking buddies anyone could have, they are freaking hilarious!! :) Randy may be quiet but makes the most sense when you are having guy trouble :)
Chris (the US one!)...although he lives miles awaya and i miss him tons he is still there for me, i love our chats and the way he always reminds me of who i am and why people love me so much! We will drink together again one day buddy!! miss ya!!
Karen and Dana i am so thankful i met these 2 wonderful ladies! I have learned sooooooo much from them (both in stamping and life!). Their creativity blows my mind and i learn from them daily. They are also my fave 2 people to email my crazy stories too!! ;) Miss you guys, we need a stamp date in 2010 together!!!
Chris (the coolest guitar player ever one)..i am thankful he helped me remember who i was when i needed to know the most. I am thankful he has been a kick ass friend so far, and i hope for a long time coming!!

My crafting...i am so glad Karen taught me all about this subject! Its my release from the stress of everyday life. I love seeing peoples faces when they get one of my gifts, i like to make people smile!!

My job...really i have a great job, the pay is good, hours are good...sure there are challenges but nothing i can't handle. My staff are pretty kick ass and am thankful they help me out everyday! My managers are my backbone and i love them to death:)

MUSIC:) As most of you know music is my life. I am thankful that one day in 1987 a kid in my class played Guns N' Roses for me, if not god only knows what i would be listening to now a days! I am thankful for all the road trips and concerts i have seen, all the amazing bands i have met and hung out with. I am thankful i was able to be in 2 kick ass bands and inspire people in the process.

Ok...i know there is more but this is long enough and i have no idea who is even going to read this!! But if you are reading this i am thankful for you my blog followers!! I am always amazed at all the comments you leave on my blog ....i heart you :)
