Merry Christmas

Happy Saturday my friends. If you've been around here much you know how much I love the color combo of pink, blue and green with a touch of silver for Christmas!  It is one of my favorite go to combinations and of course I love a good CAS card!  So I think this is perfect for the current challenge over at Happy Little Stampers to make a CAS Christmas card.  I stamped the stripes down the left and then added the front panel to finish this off.

Okay - no time to chat this morning...off to the chiropractic due to a bit of sciatic pain (nothing too bad)...and then off to do a walk (which I was supposed to run) with Marcel and Jonathon to benefit lung cancer awareness.  Should be a great day!

Wishing You the Joy of the Season

As I mentioned yesterday, I had time to get several more Christmas cards done this weekend. I love a soft striped water color background...super quick and nice for it not to be perfect!  I finished the card off with a die cut little snowman and a touch of glitter if you zoom in quickly on it. I'll be entering this card over at Happy Little Stampers and Merry Monday.

Merry Christmas

I mentioned on Tuesday I'd be back with another Christmas card.  I decided to do multiples of this one as well. Love Christmas cards in non-traditional colors and very few layers so they are easy for mailing. Thank goodness for the Misti that mades it so easy to make multiples!

I so appreciate the two challenges going on for Christmas in July at Merry Monday and Happy Little Stampers. Thanks so much for inspiring me to get moving on my Christmas cards!  

Have a Holly Jolly Christmas!

Happy July 4th my friends!  We're having a fabulous Independence Day.  I started the day with a three mile run and then Ryan, Collin, Marcel and I went down to the local river for a five mile canoe ride followed by lunch.  Canoeing isn't comfortable for Pat's back and Jonathon was working.  We missed having them with us, but it was so nice out.  Sunny but also shady as we cruised along. I hope that you are relaxing with your families today too!

But...I think you are here for a card. It is July and I have not made a single Christmas card until this weekend...so time to get moving. I made multiples of this one and need your opinion...twine or no twine?  Please cast your votes in the comments!

Without twine?  What do you think? :)
