Note Card Party 11.20

This week, I am excited to be visiting beautiful Carlisle, PA to take care of four of my sweet nieces, ages 12, 10, 8, and 7.  I arrived yesterday, and today is DAY ONE "on our own" (without Mom or Dad) to meet all of the demands of the girls' daily schedules.  I'm very sure that they will set me straight if I forget anything -- they are four very smart girls!!  Hopefully, I'll have some stories to share, but for now, here's my contribution to this month's Note Card Party.

All photos are linked to their original posts.  I'll try to stop by and visit the other participants in between the twice-daily drives to school, being the homework and instrument-practice monitor and chief cook and bottle washer!

Thanks for stopping by!

My apologies to our hostess.  Apparently I missed the request for a "box cover" this month.  As I am away from my home, and my own computer & photo files, I hope you'll forgive the omission.

    Beautiful cards...I never noticed the beauty in a pumpkin stem before! It's quite amazing. Have fun down there with your nieces! I spent many a time caring for my own, but there were only two! LOL!

    Sally, I love every one of the photographs you've chosen for your note cards this month! I am an autumn girl through and through, so these images call my name. :)

    The spoon with the etched words "Give Thanks" is wonderful! Is it metal? Wood? Beautiful!

    I enjoyed nosing through your blog a bit this morning. You have a lovely space here.

    These is a lovely seasonal set! I especially like that first one - the macro shot. And "thanks" - yes, I am!

    Hi Sally! Loved your photos - great close-ups! They are tricky with my feeble little camera so I make up for it with the fuss and bother effects thingy. Sounds like you have your hands full - Lord bless you! Looking forward to connecting again soon! Joy!

    Sally, these notecards are gorgeous. I love them all! Well done. Did you hammer the old spoon? I love those and would like to have a tap and die kit to make some. Have fun with your nieces. Pamela
