(Front of card pinched shut for a better view of card.)
In our neighborhood we have a card club once a month and we exchange cards. I made this for the exchange. I al so loving the versatility of the stamp set "Winter Post" I have had a ton of fun the season with this set. Riding Hood Red is such a great color it's softness really blends with other colors well, but is strong enough to stand on it's own. If you haven't ordered any of the Taffeta ribbon from Stampin'Up yet you need to. I can't believe what gorgeous ribbon you can tie with this ribbon. Taffeta holds it's shape so well and still has a softness about it. Speaking about ribbon.... I was at the craft store on Saturday and was looking at the ribbon. I thought I would look for a ribbon that would make a good alternate for my Christmas card. I wanted to use the
Alpine ribbon originals from SU but sense it comes in a set of 3 and I would not be able to mass produce using the striped without hurting the pocket book. Well I looked at 3 store with our success.. You can't hold a candle to S.U. ribbon.. The colors and quality are not to be compared. And I was not finding any ribbon that was any cheaper either. Most Ribbon was average of $3.49 for 9-feet(3 yards) S.U. Ribbon is $4.95 for 15 yards... Wow that is the best deal you can find. Sorry girls Wal-mart, Michael's, Robert's, Joann are not always the best deal... especially when quality, price and selection is in hand. Long and short... I 'm changing the ribbon and I am using Stampin' Up Taffeta Ribbon for the above reasons... (this isn't the card I was having ribbon trauma with I haven't even started the cards yet.)
Inside of card with thumb again sorry.

I really wanted to re-created the clever little Thanksgiving dinner that the peanuts gang made.. The preparing of the Thanksgiving feast is my favorite part of the whole show. Toast a flying everywhere and butter spread just as fast... So dang clever... Woodstock has always been a favorite of mine with his looks like you people are nut... and what the heck are you thinking... And he just quietly goes about his business.. What a genius....
Zach and Abbie had such a great time together at "Camp Snoopy" They never stopped giggling... and Smiling.. I think they would even choose it over Disneyland they had that much fun.. I highly suggest a trip to "Knotts Berry Farm" for the family there is so much more shade and lots of benches for adults to sit on... And like Disneyland parents can join in on most, but not all of the rides... Knotts was a great place to go because all week we had experienced way to many crowds and line and Disney. So to get to Knotts and have to place to our selves was a dream... I would go back in a heart beat.... Don't get me wrong.. I would never go to SO-CAL with out going to Disneyland I would probably choose it over anywhere else... 
I was searching around on Splitcoast a while back and I just had to make this card... If you want to make on you can link to it HERE for the tutorial..
