Three Holiday Cards and Black Friday countdown

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  While in Florida we don't have the changing leaves so much it's still such a pretty effect that I had to make a card in honor of the Fall season!  I am thankful for so many things but especially for knowing that the Maker of all Creation loves me!  This card uses the November stamp of the month "Cherish the Day" tickets and numbers plus "Harvest Happiness" for the leaves - all cut with the Cricut.  Thanks to Annette Green for the inspiration for the card.

  The next 2 cards use "Holiday Wishes" stamps and the Cricut, too.  The gold card uses heat embossing for the stocking and sentiment (the gold paper is not CTMH).  Simple and elegant but soooo easy! Thanks to Allisa Chilton for the idea.  The stockings on the mantle card was inspired by Marie Flayer.  The stockings were cut with the Cricut and then stamped with the matching stamp image from the "Holiday Wishes" stamp set.I used gold brads with a little brown Staz-on to dull the shiny effect and make them look like nails - nice, right?  I hope you enjoy these and feel inspired to make your own.

I don't know about you but where did October go?  There are at least 5 birthdays in my family in the month of October so I know that October was here but it just went by too fast!  Or is it true that the older you get time just seems to fly faster and faster by you?  Either way, I am still here and will update you all soon about this month's crafting opportunities.  Talk to you soon!
