07/16/2010 Thursday Throwback # 7 Wild Card



Here is this week's challenge from Emma at www.creativetimeforme.com:  "The theme for this week is "Your Favorite Holiday" theme & for this challenge, you would need to make a card!".   The cartridge that we are using is Wild Card.  I was pumped to use it for the first time.  

I love Thanksgiving- I was born in Canada where our Thxgiving is in October- the perfect time for brisk fall walks in the woods.  I added a few maple leaves to the card to represent my Canuck side. (They sparkle with Gold as did the Canadian Men's & Women's Hockey teams in Vancouver last year. Woo hoo!!!)   

Thx Emma- this was fun!!
