Happy Friday everyone! This week at CAS-ual Fridays we are extending our challenge for two weeks for the Thanksgiving holiday. We have a fabulous sketch from Karen to work with and Tradefish Designs as our sponsor.

Unfortunately the mail service did not cooperate with us and I did not get my sponsor stamps in time to work with them. I did make this CAS card using the sketch though. I will be posting a new card as soon as I get my Tradefish stamps. I hope you all come and play with us at CAS-ual Fridays!
