Gobble 'Til You Wobble

 A little humor for Thanksgiving - I think we all feel like this after Thanksgiving dinner!?!

 I stamped the turkey onto watercolor paper with Archival Black Ink.  I water colored the image and grounded it with a swash of watery green.  I added the sentiments  Mini Strips: Harvest cut with the Mini strips die from Taylored Expressions.  To finish it off I added a few enamel dots from Altenew.

I'm linking my card to:
 
I was inspired by the sign!
