Feelin' Fall

Since the theme of the Feline Playful blog hop is 'thankful' I decided to put together an autumn card. While I frequently have thoughts of thankfulness while strolling through burgeoning blossoms in the spring, marveling at the wonder of snowflakes, and delight at the sound of children's laughter in the midst of summer, there is just something special about autumn. I love the colors, the winding down of summer, the smells, the harvests...the season just lends itself to thoughts of thanks.
