Merry Christmas!

Christmas is coming fast now! I hope you have been enjoying the season as much as I have been. I love the hustle and bustle of shopping for gifts, decorating, baking, spending lots of time with family...all of it! It's the people around us that make the season bright. 

So I want to take the time to thank you for your support of my blog and for all your inspiring comments. I love creating with these beautiful Stampendous products and sharing them with you.

Your color choices are great. I like the light flowers in the middle--they stand out nicely against the stronger, gorgeous colors.
