Hi ALL! It is Cheryl back with this week's theme and challenge. Here in the United States we celebrate Thanksgiving this month. It is one of my favorite times of the year. What a wonderful opportunity we have to pause and consider all the ways we are blessed. So I bring this theme of not only THANKS, but GIVING to you. Our challenge this week is to create EITHER a THANK YOU card OR a HOMEMADE GIFT that you can GIVE to someone.
