I squeaked out another card this afternoon; this one fulfills the JUGS7 technique challenge, which is to use dry embossing on a birthday card, and the Saturday Sketch Challenge from Stamping 411:
My dad's birthday is on Thanksgiving this year, and as much as I would have loved to put a turkey on his card (and he would have laughed about it) I decided to make a "nice" card for him:
Now I don't have to worry about making a card along with my pies and all my other Thanksgiving goodies! Enjoy! If you have any questions, just shoot me an email; all products are SU!

I love the double stamped tree and the embossing folder with the designer paper. So much texture. Great job!
You've achieved so much texture with just your mix of dsp's - the actual texture layer is just icing on the cake! Really great card, LeAnne! Your Dad should love it, I know I do!
Thanks for playing along at the 411 this week!
I love the background paper that you embossed. How fabulous, what a great effect. I love the images you chose also, very manly.
The whole effect here is just fantastic.
Love that colour combo and the use of that embossing folder. Your dad will love it!

Gee. I never, EVER, put the stamped square on a card without a larger square behind it. (I thought there was a law against it) YOU are an inspiration to those of us with no imagination.
