Thanksgiving is a national holiday here is the United States, celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. It originated as a harvest festival and has been celebrated nationally on and off since 1789, with a proclamation by George Washington.
Thanksgiving was originally founded as a religious observance for all the members of the community to give thanks for a common purpose. The tradition of giving thanks is continued today in many forms, most notably the attendance of religious services, as well as the saying of a mealtime prayer before Thanksgiving dinner. At home, it is a holiday tradition in many families to begin the Thanksgiving dinner by saying grace, a prayer before or after a meal. At most dinner tables it is also common practice for each person to tell one specific reason they’re thankful that year.
Today we will be having a traditional Thanksgiving dinner: roasted turkey, homemade stuffing, dumplings with gravy, corn, carrots, mashed potatoes, rolls and pumpkin pie for dessert.
I thought I would make a simple card featuring the Country Home stamp set in honor of everything I’m thankful for, including family, friends and our health.
Hope you all have a wonderful day. Stop back tomorrow for the beginning of the Stampin’ Up! Online Extravaganza.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by, hope you are inspired to try paper crafting and stamping.
