Happy Monday Folks! We've finally gotten in a groove with Amy's pain meds/cancer treatment, Cad had to go on pain meds, and I've been trying to exercise every day since I joined "The Biggest Loser" competition amongst the teachers at my school. I did squeeze in some creative time and here is one of the things I got done!
I did well making Christmas cards a little at a time last year and it made for one less stressful part of the holidays 'cause the cards were all made before Thanksgiving. I'm doing me best to try it again this year. I figure each one done is one less to work on later. :)
DH is a candy fiend and he loves monochromatic cards, so of course this is his favorite Christmas card in the current 2013 collection. I'm excited that I have enough of this peppermint paper to make at least 3-4 more of these cards. :)
The peppermint paper is from a kit I had gotten last year in a kit club where I'm a member, the stamp is one I got ages ago and have only used a few time (so glad to get to ink it up again!), and the twine is leftover from a valentine card I had made. Love when I can use my stash!
I've popped a peppermint and wandered with this card to these lovely gatherings:
Festive Friday- Trigger Word Sweet
Sparkles Christmas Challenge- Favorite Festive Colors (I ADORE peppermint for Christmas!)
