Since Fall is finally arriving here in Middle Tennessee and Thanksgiving right around the corner I thought I would do a "November" page!  I used our beautiful Falling For You paper.  I created a journaling spot using one of the Picture My Life cards that is included on a page in the paper pack.  I stamped "November" and a few leaves.  I stamped the leaves on a piece of B&T paper and cut them out.   The turkey, pumpkins and the word "Thankful" are all from our new You Are Here Cricut Cartridge!  Below is a little closer look!
