30 Days of Thanksgiving: Day Six, Fridays, Birthday Parties, & a Thank You Card Tutorial

I couldn't find the photo of what I wanted to be thankful for today so I'll have to post it another day. I don't think I'll have time tonight. Jo's birthday party is tonight and some kids are coming home from school with her. We'll have 2 TVs going downstairs... one with Rock Band and the other with Halo. Cupcakes and Chex Mix are already made. There's candy & soda, too. I'll just have to go pick up pizzas... and lots of them. This is the first year she's ever invited boys to her birthday party! And some are coming after a cross country meet so I've been warned that they eat a lot. I think there are 18 kids all together!
I thought I'd share a little project with you today. Remember these flowers that I showed you how to make here last year? Well, I needed to make thank you notes after my birthday a few weeks ago and I thought since these flowers have been around for a while I'd turn them into thank you notes.
The largest punch I used for the flower is a 3" scalloped circle. So I cut the cardstock to 3" x 6" and folded it in half. Then folded a long piece of seam binding in half, put the fold on the fold of the card, glued it to the front, and tied it on the side. Sorry I didn't take a picture of this step to make it clearer.
Then I just glued the old flower to the front.

Enter His gates with Thanksgiving

And His courts with praise.

Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

For the Lord is good.

-from Psalm 100
