December 1st tomorrrow! Wow, where has the time gone!? This Fall has flown by and I am in "countdown" mode to Christmas. This year I must admit that I am feeling overwhelmed by the thought of decorating the tree, wrapping gifts to send away, finishing my Christmas cards and all of the family outings that are coming! Whew! It is always SO busy this time of year and I want to relax and enjoy! Do you have lots on your plate too?
Today I crafted! I wanted to play with the awesome new sketch at Viva la Verve. I had fun inking up the Bright Spirits stamp set again, I bought it for the beautiful sentiments in it. I love scripty, scrolled sentiments! They always appeal and are elegant to me. I love creating traditional and elegant, Christmas cards. I am also linking up at Simon Says Stamp: Anything Goes Challenge. I am also playing along with The Paper Players and Jaydee's Tic Tac Toe Challenge. I used Pattern Paper, Embossed and Snowflake.
