If you are anything like me, it is sometimes difficult to express face to face how you truly feel about those that matter most. So this year I have found the perfect solution - I will take matters into my crafty hands and send out some “thankful/thank you” cards before the turkey is carved.

I hope you too will join me this month, and let your family, friends and loved ones know just how much they matter to you, and how grateful you are that they are in your life. I am sure these cards will inspire you to do just that!

Just so you know ... I appreciate you by Jennifer Wuthrich
