Keep calm and Gobble on

Today I've got a fall/Thanksgiving card to share with you!  When I moved here into my new craft room, I noticed that I had a TON of scraps of patterned paper building up, so I put them all into a bin and have been keeping them on my table and going through them before I make any project.  All four of the patterned papers on this page are from that scraps bin!  It's been really fun to see how the different patterns might go together in ways I hadn't expected. 

I cut my turkey from SVG Cuts' "Thanksgiving Cuties" using my Cameo. The head is popped up on foam squares for some dimension.  I used some Paprika Stickles on the feathers for the sparkle.  For decoration I used some of the sequins I've been accumulating for my scrapbook pages.  The yellow and woodgrain are Studio Calico, I think, and the gold are from the dollar bin at Michaels. They have huge rolls of sequins strung together, so when I start to run low I just cut off some of them and put them in my sequin jar.  :)

The stamp I used says "Keep Calm and Gobble on."  It's from Jaded Blossom's "Thanksgiving Wishes" stamp set. 
This card is being entered into the following challenges:
