Our Crafty Saturday

We decided to make some Thanksgiving cards today. We got out all our supplies, including Coke for me, since I stayed up too late last night!

  21. Kelli, the bottom part of your chat box is not showing. That's the part you type the message into. My chat box is not showing at all on my blog. They must be working on them.
