Merry Christmas to All...

I have one last Christmas card to post, and then I'm starting my holidays! Both of our boys are so excited to see their grandparents, and of course, to get presents!

This card is the one I made for DH - I was trying to use up some of my Dashing paper since it's retired (*sad face here*). This is a pretty simple card. I used Real Red as the card base, layered on the designer paper with some Real Red grosgrain across the bottom. Then I stamped the tree from Season of Joy (I'm really hoping this set makes it into next year's Fall/Winter Collection) in Old Olive on Very Vanilla cardstock. I layered this on some Old Olive cardstock before adhering it to the card. I finished off with some Crystal Effects on the star at the top of the tree, just to give it some bling (I should have put some glitter in it, but I wasn't thinking at the time!).

Anyway, I want to thank you all for visiting and wish you and your families a Very Merry Christmas and God's blessings in the New Year! I'll be back to blogging next week, and I can't wait to see what everyone has been up to over the holidays!

Thanks for your visit Shannon - I'm looking forward to 2008. God was just true to His Word this past year as I prayed over my verse for the year Psalm 86 "Give me an undivided heart" I thought that was a safe prayer until he started to show me how divided my heart was. I'm thankful for a good church and good people like you. I hope 2008 is a wonderful year for your family also have a great Christmas.
