During this time of year I also reflect (as many do) how blessed I am. In doing so, I found these (more to be shown tomorrow too.) I realize they may not be the most "beautiful" creations but they are to me. They are laminated and we have used them for playdoh mats, placemats and even magic sand (is that what it is called?) mats. I will show you my favorite one tomorrow but I thought you would get a kick out of these just as I did... My boys are almost 12 and almost 14-so as you can see these are a bit old :)

Your card is super cute, but I LOVE the placemats!! I am a mom of 5, and I have been doing crafts with them, and always save the works of art! So cool! And if you are referring to the "Moon Sand", you are a braver mom than, that stuff is worse than play doh! lol Thanks for sharing!

@Kristy Thank you :) Happy Thanksgiving!
I think my favorite of this would have to be the placemats. I really think that its awesome you kept those all these years. Coming from a family that doesnt save these little treasures, I wish we did. You can't go go back and replace them once you are grown up. :(
Your card is super also!

The mats are my favorite!! Our kids made those one year as a keepsake for each person who ate Thanksgiving dinner with us.

I love your project. I love to save my kids artwork as well. Turkey projects are so much fun.
Tammi, I love this card! I like the folded down corner with 3 brads. That is very unique and really looks nice on your card. I also like the 4 corners on the other piece of cardstock. Very nice! The sentiment tag is beautiful and more brads! Love your card! Thanks for sharing.
Your children's place mats are very special.I love seeing things like that. My Mom keep all our stuff for years. She had it stored in a box in the basement and when our hot water heated busted we lost all those handmade treasures. For treasures they are. They can not be replaced. Thanks for sharing yours.

Opps! I called you Tami twice today.sorry about that. Your blog looks similar to hers.
This is the best card I've seen so far! I too used to make cute crafts with my soon to be 11 and 14 year olds. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends!
Wishing you well
