"Thanksgiving" LO for Kaboodle Doodles Challenge #94

Kaboodle Doodles Challenge #94 is "Thanksgiving".  You could submit any project as long as it fits the challenge theme.  Winner to be drawn randomly with sponsor prize of images from A Day of Daisies Tues, Nov. 22, 2011 at US timezone.  Participants have until Sun., Nov. 20, 2011 to link their entries at the Kaboodle Doodles Challenge Blog.

I've been dilly dallying on what to submit for this challenge, as we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in our country.  Although, we occasionally celebrate milestones or accomplishments by having our own thanksgiving meal with loved ones with whom we wish to share our own triumphs and joys.  Thus,  my submission below is a double pager with my young sis celebrating with the family her accomplishment in her career.  I'd say it was a feast that the family had.  Congrats young sis on that well-deserved triumph!!

Inspiration Sketch

SUPPLIES: Paper: Echo Park, All About Scrapbooking (Hallmark Inc.), Alphabet Stickers: Doodlebug, Buttons: All About Scrapbooking (Hallmark Inc.), Sketch: Sketch Inspiration,  TOOLS: Border Punch: Martha Stewart.
