Can You Believe It?

     Here it is November 22nd and we have sunny skies and temps of 50's right now.  Isn't that amazing?  We're days from Thanksgiving and we can be outside with light jackets.  We'll be putting up our Christmas Lights today.  It will be a family affair.  I just love Christmas lights inside and out.  I am sad when we have to take them down.
      I've also been busy with Card Ministry cards, so I'll post a few  here today.  I posted the others yesterday.
This is one of my favorite stamps from High Hopes. This is one of 5 cards I designed for Card Ministry this month. I am also trying to use up my Christmas design paper from SU. I used two of the five petal flowers and overlapped them for a poinsettia. I used SU markers to color the image.

This is one of my favorite Christmas Stamps because it lists the many names of the one whose birth we celebrate. We stamped in Hunter green on celery then added gold paper and punched out a gold star for the tree top. The background is SU folder on real red paper

This is A Wish For Peach stamped in olive with burgundy sponged around the edge. I then matched some SU holiday design paper and used it for a frame and background. The I added the dove using MS dove punch to the saying.




I am very far behind on my Christmas cards due to my surgery this past July.  So I have to kick it in gear if I want to have handmade cards for the holidays.  Wish me luck and send me some prayers too!.  Bless you for visiting today.
