fresh christmas cheer


This is my favorite time of year!  The weather is getting cooler (although it was still 75 degrees  yesterday on Thanksgiving) and I'm starting to get into the Christmas spirit.  Nothing gets me ready for the holidays more than watching Christmas Vacation with Chevy Chase and starting a big batch of Christmas cards to send out to friends and family.


I watched the movie last night as soon as we got home from Thanksgiving dinner and now I'm trying to finalize a design for our Christmas card....here are a few iterations that I've gone through.  Nothing is final yet except that I want the main colors to be pink and green (those were my wedding colors too!).


These ones have letter stamps from 7 Gypsies and Papertrey Ink.  The reindeer stamp is from Memory Box and I used Copic markers and Stickles to pretty it up a bit.  The pink strip is Stardream metallic paper that I ran through the Cuttlebug with a snowflake embossing folder.
