Giving Thanks Stamp-a-Stack


Today's Lesson From The Craft Room:  Laugh Until You Almost Pee :)

Sorry for the crudeness of today's lesson - I just couldn't capture the nature of my laughter today without using the explicit reference :)  Today I used oovoo for the first time.  It is a free video chatting application that you can get at www.oovoo.com.  I have to say it was a riot!  I spoke to one of my friends and we discovered that the little downward arrow on top of the video chat image allows you to apply all different types of effects to the video of you speaking.  If you have a chance, I highly recommend you do a video chat with one of your friends and choose the "pinch" effect and see how hard you can laugh!!!!  I dare you to laugh until you almost pee :)  It was the highlight of my day and I truly believe laughter is the best medicine!

Today's cards are for my Giving Thanks Stamp-a-Stack this week.  I used fall colors, inspired by the changing leaves outside and the briskness in the air!  The card on the right (the tree) was inspired by a card by Andrea Walford, another SU demonstrator (thanks Andrea!)  I used a few different stamp sets (Season of Friendship, Upsy Daisy, and One of a Kind) and some brads.  The left hand card is faux stitched and uses The More the Merrier and Thank You Kindly sets.  Hope you like them!  Now go and do some laughing :)
