Just need to wrapped all the presents and I'm done! Well, all the gifts for friends and family are done but not for my Toni. She's 8 years-old and I think she starting to know that Santa is Mom but really don't want to believe that knowing that she won't receive anything from him...LOL! This weekend, I asked her if she can make a letter for Santa (I think hearing from me saying that I don't have extra money for a lot of gifts this year) she wants Santa to give her a Marley and Me book (I wanted to cry when she said that) but, then she started adding stuff on her Santa list...LOL!
Anyway, I haven't been creating lately, been stressed and tired of the house hunting and by the time I get home, I just want to go to bed. I actually made this card sometime last week, when Dawns a.k.a. FlowerGal36 was the Featured Stamper on SCS. This is the card I CASE'd, I really like the colors that she used, so I kept everything the same and just change the image. The main image is from Whipper Snapper, Lovely Christmas Presents.

Beautiful card Catherine. Love the color combo and that image. Great ribbon too. :) Hope that the house hunt gets easier, it's a lot to deal with. Good thing the holidays are almost here, hopefully it will give you something else to focus on. :)
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Hannah saw Santa over the weekend. She too is a little unsure of him and if he is real or not. He asked her to sit on his lap. She just looked at him. TR ran right over. She waited. He then asked her to come and tell him what she wanted for Christmas. She came a little closer and gave him the Hannah look. She then said "If you are Santa, you should already know what I want. So, I am not telling you!" lol!!!!!
Hope you and Toni have a wonderful Christmas.
This is too cute!!
Your card is fabulous (as always) and I am glad you're done shopping! Toni sounds so sweet too. I'm glad you have her in your life!

They really are great colors together, esp with the bit of pale blue in your coloring. Hope you get a bit of time to relax, just for you. Hugs.
Hang in there Catherine! I feel the same way that you do. Overwhelmed with all of the Christmas stuff I have to do, and Christmas will come before we know it, lol.
Love the colors of this card. I always like to use these two colors together (you know my addiction to brown). Have a wonderful week and it will all soon be over (hopefully, lol).
What an adorable Featured Stamper card! Beautiful colors and love all the embellishments.
Good luck house hunting...I so hear you about it being exhausting. Take care of yourself!
