Merry Christmas



Happy Monday my friends.  Popping in with a card for no particular reason.  When I was away on my crafty weekend in October it was my goal to get all of my Christmas cards ready to go.  This was one that I made several of for my stash.  Love this fun sentiment from PTI.  To give it a little pop I water colored and added a touch of coordinating plaid patterned paper.  I am happy to say that all I do have all of my Christmas cards done, but there will be several more to share between now and Christmas.   I hope your Christmas card making is going well too!  I still have to get a family picture for the card...hoping that happens over Thanksgiving break when Ryan is home for a few days.

Happy Birthday, Lynn. I guess your present to yourself is having those cards done. This one is lovely.

I love this, Lynn! The pastel watercolor looks beautiful on the swirly sentiment and the strips of paper on the side are perfect with it!

That fun scripty sentiment is fabulous in those lovely soft watercolours, Lynn ... delicious with the plaid accent strip! How fantastic to be so organised with your Christmas cards ... mine are on the way, though there are still plenty more to come! Hugs, Anita :)
