3 Birds on Parade - Pilgrim Shape Card!

My 3 Birds on Parade cartridge arrived Wednesday from cricutmachine.com.  Whoo hoo!!  I bought my Gypsy there last November - a great deal - and I couldn't resist their super prices on Cricut carts last week and I caved.  Bet I'm not the only one!!  :-)  I had time to play this morning and couldn't help but cut this cute little pilgrim and turn him into a shaped card.  I'm really lovin' those right now! 


I think this card will be making it's way to our CCD coordinator for Thanksgiving.  She's such a lovely woman...with an incredible spirit and endless energy.  I need to let her know how grateful my kids and I are for her!  Then I may just make a few more of these...one for my mom, one for my mother-in-law...you know what I'll be doing this weekend!  Enjoy!

I'm entering my birdie into Paula's Wacky Wednesday challenge #16 at More Than Favors.  This challenge is to make any fall- or Thanksgiving-related project...check it out!
