Snowy Scenes, Sophisticated Sled, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I've got a Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made. 

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Pool Party card stock for the layer. On top of that is a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Basic White card stock that was textured using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. I glued it to the Pool Party piece and then I taped that to the front of the card.

The two square layers were cut next. The Pool Party piece measures 2-3/4" x 2-3/4" and the top Basic White layer was cut at 2-1/2" x 2-1/2".  I used my Blending Brush with Pool Party ink and scrubbed on the color.

Sandwiched between the two squares is a 1-5/8" x 3-3/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package. I used my grid paper to help guide in getting the pieces centered. I taped the DSP to the Pool Party square and then the Basic White piece (that was colored with Pool Party ink) on top of that. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the center of the card.

The snow globe from the "Snowy Scenes" package was fussy cut. I stamped the words from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle using black Memento ink. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the top square.

And that was it. I was going to add some embellishments but I liked it just the way it was.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,

Sophisticated Sled, Iconic Celebrations, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. I found it on Pinterest but I did make some changes. You can see the original card here. Please read on to see how I made it.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. 

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Iconic Celebrations" 6" x 6" stack. I taped it to the front of the card.

A 5-1/4" x 3"piece of Basic White card stock was cut and then textured using the "So Swirly" embossing folder. I glued the piece on top of the DSP, centering it as much as I could by eyeing it.

Next I cut the sleigh pieces from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle. The body of the sleigh was cut from Misty Moonlight card stock. The runners were cut from some silver foil card stock. I also cut the skate blades from the silver card stock. And the laces on the skates were cut from a scrap of Misty Moonlight card stock. Though after seeing it all put together I think Boho Blue would have been a better choice for the laces.

The skates were cut using a scrap of Basic White card stock. I glued on the laces and blades. I glued the two skates together. Dimensionals were added to the back and they were set aside.

The "greenery" at the top was cut using Boho Blue card stock. I glued them in place on the top part of the sled.

I tied a silver bow and set it aside. I took a 3" piece of the silver cord and using a glue dot I set it in place in the center of the Boho Blue "greenery". I glued the ends down onto the bed of the sled so they would end up close to behind the skates as possible. I could have glued the ends to the back of the skates and then stuck the top part on the glue dot but I didn't think of that until just now. 

Then the skates were set in place. I glued the silver bow in place. The sled was then glued in place on top of the textured Basic White piece.

The words came next, they are from the same "Sophisticated Sled" bundle. I stamped them using Misty Moonlight ink on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock. I cut them out using the die from the "Perennial Postage" set. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the lower part of the card.

A few crystal rhinestones were added to the front of the card and the card was done.

I just LOVE this bundle and I think I'm going to keep it forever!  That's a long time! LOL

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,

Spotlight on Nature, Snowy Scenes, Sophisticated Sled, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a fun Christmas card to share with you. It's easy and pretty quick to make too. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded piece of Garden Green card stock. I was torn between that and Poppy Parade but the greens in the globe pushed more towards Garden Green. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White and I taped it to the inside.

Next I cut a piece of Basic White that measures 5-1/2" x 3-3/4".  I cut out the circle using a die from the "Spotlight on Nature. It was the third largest die that has a lined texture all around. There's two sets of circle dies in this package. This one was from one of the "sheets" and the border piece is on the other sheet, it was the second largest die. I cut it out on a separate piece of Basic White card stock. Then I had to take the first die I used and cut out the center. Now I was ready to texture it using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder.

I glued the die cut circle/ring to the opening on the textured piece. 

Then I took a 3-1/4" x 3-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock, using my Blending Brush and Pool Party ink, I scrubbed on some color. I glued this piece to the back of the textured piece over the opening.

The snowman in the globe is from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package of Designer Series Paper (DSP). I fussy cut it out, added Dimensionals to the back and set the piece in place on the bottom area of the opening. 

I took some snowflakes from the "White Loose Snowflakes" container. 

The words are from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle and were stamped using Poppy Parade ink. I cut them out using the die from the "Nested Essentials" set.

Before adding the embossed piece to the front of the card, I took a 6" piece of ribbon and taped the ends to the back. then I set it in place on the front of the card.

I took 20" of ribbon and tied a double bow. I snipped the ends and glued the bow on top of the ribbon piece I had just added.

Some gold thread was used to tie a bow and that was set in place on top of the ribbon bow using a glue dot.

A little bit of glue was added to the one end of the piece and it was slid under the ribbon piece a bit and set in place. 

For a final touch I added a few snowflakes to the word piece.

This was such a fun card and I am pleased at the way it turned out.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,

Sophisticated Sled, Snowflake Sky, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. I found this card on Pinterest but I can't locate again. It was made by Terri Gaines but I changed it a little. She has a fancy fold and I just made a regular card with it and I added the wording. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Smoky Slate for the layer.  Using the skate laces die from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle I cut it from the center of the piece. I set it aside.

Next I took a 5-1/2" x 4-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and textured it using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. Then I cut the piece at 3-3/4" and I left the length. I cut tore the bottom area in two places. I glued the top part down first, then the middle piece. Make sure you overlap the middle piece on top of the upper piece. And then add the bottom piece so the whole thing measures 5" long. The piece was then taped to the front of the card. 

The sled was cut next. The runner was cut using Early Espresso card stock and the bed of the sled was cut using Pecan Pie card stock. I glued the pieces together and then I glued it to the front of the card.

I cut the skates from scraps of Basic White card stock and the blades were cut from some silver card stock. I glued the blades on and then I added a little bit of glue and slipped the lace piece in place. Dimensionals were added to the back and they were set in place on the front of the card. 

A double bow of linen thread was tied and glued in place at the top of the sled runner.

The words are from the same "Sophisticated Sled" and were stamped on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock using Real Red ink. I cut then out using the "Perennial Postage" die set. The words were set in place using Dimensionals and the card was done.

This was a fun card to make and I love the look of it.

Snowy Scenes, Snowy Wonder, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a quick Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Poppy Parade card stock for the layer. Then I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock that I had textured using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. I trimmed it down to 3-7/8" x 5-3/8" and glued it to the Poppy Parade piece. Then I taped that to the front of the card.

Next I cut the rectangles. The layers are Poppy Parade and measure 2" x 3" each and the Designer Series Paper (DSP) is from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package and were cut at 1-3/4" x 2-3/4". I taped the two pieces together and then I glued them to the front of the card.

The cute snow globe is from the same "Snowy Scenes" package. I fussy cut it and set it on the front of the card using Dimensionals.

The words are from the "Snowy Wonder" bundle and were stamped using Poppy Parade ink on a scrap piece of Basic Whit card stock. I cut them out using the die from the "Nested Essentials" set. I added Dimensionals on the left and tape on the right and set it in place on the front of the card.

I glued on some snowflakes from the "White Loose Snowflakes" container and the card was done.

This was a fun card to make. I LOVE those little snowflakes, they're SO darn cute!

Regal Winter, Cheerful Daisies, Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a very simple, quick and easy card to share with you. This is one of my favorite layouts to play with. It allows you to use up some scrap card stock or make make 16 cards from a 12" x 12" sheet. Please read on to see how my card was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock for the layer.

The Basic White layer was cut at 4-1/4" x 3-1/8".  On top of that is a 3" x 3" piece of Designer Series Paper (DPS) from the "Regal Winter" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the Basic White piece.

Next I stamped the words from the "Cheerful Daisies" bundle using black Memento ink. 

Then I took some thin ribbon (retired) that I had and cut it 5" long. I taped the ends to the back, lining it up on the front with the bottom of the DSP. I taped the piece to the front of the card and the card was done.

I am so pleased at how this card turned out. It's got such a rich look. I made two at the same time, not because it was quick (which it was) but my hubby has twin sisters and their birthdays are on Saturday so I needed to get their cards done. They are done and ready for him to sign them!

Thank you SO much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,

Greetings of the Season, Snowy Scenes, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a quick and easy Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Pool Party card stock for the layer. Once I had put the card together I thought that this piece would have looked nicer if it had been textured using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. I taped the piece to the card base.

Next I cut a 4-1/4" x 3-1/8" piece of Basic White and on top of that is a 3" x 3" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package. I taped this piece in place so I could see how much space I had for the words.

The words are from the "Greetings of the Season" bundle. I stamped them using Poppy Parade ink.

From the same "Snowy Scenes" DSP package I had fussy cut a snow globe from one of the sheets. I was going to tape it to the DSP but it kind of got lost so I took a piece of Garden Green card stock and I cut a circle from the "Stylish Shapes" set. I taped the globe part to the circle. I added Dimensionals to the back and I set it aside.

I took a 5" piece of ribbon (retired) and taped the ends on the backside. Then I taped this piece to the front of the card. I centered it by eyeing it. 

I removed the backing from the Dimensionals and set the globe piece in place and the card was done.

This was such a fun and quick card to make and I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.

Sophisticated Sled, Greetings of the Season, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

I have not heard anything about the new format so I'm going back to the old one (it's quicker to do and all the materials are still listed in the paragraphs.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. 

I cut a 4-1/8" x 5-3/8" piece of Soft Sea Foam card stock for the layer. 

Next I took a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and I stamped the wreath on it from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle using Soft Sea Foam ink. I marked the top right down 1" and the top left down 1-3/4".  I took the piece to my cutter and cut it from mark to mark. I made sure that the mark was on the other side of the blade. Meaning that the marks would be on the piece that I don't need for this card.

Once the stamped Basic White piece was cut, I taped it to the Soft Sea Foam piece and then I took it to the paper trimmer to cut off the upper part leaving a layer that matched the sides and bottom. I was close but mine was a little short but it's okay, the Soft Sea Foam color is so light only those who read this will notice! After cutting I taped those two layers to the front of the card.

The words were done next. They are from the "Greetings of the Season" bundle and were stamped using Garden Green ink. After I had finished making the card I realized that Real Red would have been better but it's still nice. The green gives it a more toned down feel.

The sled was made using the dies in the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle. I cut the runner using Early Espresso card stock. The body of the sled was cut from Pecan Pie card stock. I glued the two pieces together. 

The greenery was cut using a die from the same bundle. I used Old Olive and Mossy Meadow card stock. I cut the Old Olive one in half. I glued the Mossy Meadow piece down on the sled and then the two pieces of Old Olive. I tied a double bow using white Baker's Twine and I used a dot of glue to hold it in place on the greenery.

Using my dark Cherry Cobbler Blends Pen I colored some pearls and added them to the greenery.

The skates and laces were cut using the dies in the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle. I glued the laces in place. I had also cut two "blades" using silver card stock and I glued them in place too.  I added a little tape to the skates and stuck them together where I thought they looked good. Then I added Dimensionals to the back and I set them in place on the top of the sled.

Dimensionals were added to the back of the sled and it was set in place on the front of the card. And that was it, the card was done.

I love using this set and making cards with both the sled and the skates on it. I think it's one of my favorite sets this season.

Snowy Wonder, Snowy Scenes, Sophisticated Sled, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Poppy Parade card stock for the layer. On top of that is a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the Poppy Parade piece and then that was taped to the front of the card.

The snowman and tree are from the same package of DSP. I fussy cut the tree but the snowman was cut using the die from the "Snowy Wonder" bundle. 

I had a scrap piece of Poppy Parade, it measures 4" x 1-1/2" and I textured it using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. 

The squares were both cut from Basic White card stock. They measure 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" and the other measures 2-3/4" x 2-3/4".  On the smaller piece I used my Blending Brush and scrubbed on some Pool Party ink. I also stamped some Pool Party snowflakes from the "Snowy Wonder" bundle. I used the Blending Brush on the edges of the piece to, kind of like sponging. I do prefer sponging the edges than using the brush on them.

I took the larger piece and taped the Poppy Parade strip to it, centering it as much as I could by eyeing it. It sticks out beyond the larger square about 5/8" on each side and the same from the top. Then I taped the stamped square to the top of that. So the Poppy Parade piece is sandwiched between the two squares. Dimensionals were added to the back and the piece was set in place on the center of the card.

I added a little tape to the left side of the snowman and set it on the fussy cut tree where I thought it would look the best. Then I turned it over and added Dimensionals. I set it on the top square.

The words are from the "Sophisticated Sled" and were stamped on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock using Pool Party ink. I added small Dimensions to the right side where it wouldn't be touching any card stock. Where it touches the card stock I added tape. I set the piece in place and the card was done.

This was such a fun card to make. It was also very quick and easy too! Even the little bit of fussy cutting!

One of a Kind, Greetings of the Season, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a wintry Christmas card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

Materials list:

1/2 sheet of Garden Green card stock

4" x 5-1/4" Basic White card stock, 2 pieces

3-7/8" x 5-1/8" Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Snowy Scenes" package

Stitched circle dies from the "Stylish Shapes" set

Snowflake die from the "One of a Kind" bundle

"Greetings of the Season" bundle

Scrap Basic White for the snowflakes

Pearls 

Pool Party ink

Small Dimensionals

Double-sided tape

The first thing I did was I taped the DSP to one of the Basic White pieces. Then I lined up the 2nd largest circle die in the "Stylish Shapes" set so there was equal spacing on the top and two sides. I cut the pieces out. 

Then I taped the piece on top of the Garden Green card front. I lined up the 3rd largest circle on top of the Garden Green opening. I cut the circle out of it.

Next I took a pencil and lightly traced it on the Basic White piece that will go on the inside of the card. I didn't tape it down, I just lined it up and closed the card and then traced the circle opening. Now here is where you would really benefit from a kneadable eraser. It only picks up the graphite and does not leave any eraser stubble behind nor does it wear on your paper and make it pill. They are not very expensive and you can find them in the drawing areas of you craft/hobby store. Since they are kneadable I pull off a pinch, remove the eraser in my mechanical pencil and form the eraser to fit. I will not be without it when crafting. Anyway, once my circle was lightly drawn I could see where the words needed to be stamped. The words were stamped using Pool Party in and then the circle was erased. Then I taped the piece to the inside of the card.

On the front I had die cut three snowflakes from the "One of a Kind" bundle using Basic White card stock. I set them in place using small Dimensionals and to hide the stick part that shows through the opening of the snowflake centers I added pearls. If I were to make them to send I think I would use some sparkly white glitter paper (retired - though I think some things should be basic staples). And the card was done.

This was a fun, quick and easy card to make. P.S. My circle really is centered, it's just bad photography!

Sentimental Christmas, Take a Bow, Snowy Wonder, One of a Kind, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a quick and easy Christmas card to share with you.  Please read on to see how it was made.

Materials used here:

1/2 sheet of Basic White card stock

DSP from the Sentimental Christmas package

DSP from the Take a Bow stack

DSP from the Snowy Wonder package

One of a Kind stamp set (for the words)

Real Red ink

Dimensionals

Rhinestones to embellish the card

Double-sided tape

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Sentimental Christmas" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the front of the card.

Next  cut a 1-1/2" x 5-1/4" piece of DSP from the "Take a Bow" 6" x 6" stack and I taped it to the left side of the card. I lined it up so the DSP behind it isn't showing.

The snowman is from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package and was fussy cut. There is a die in the "Snowy Wonder" bundle that could be used to cut the pieces out. I fussy cut because I forgot I bought the bundle. But upon looking at the dies, the one for the upper part of the globe would have made the globe a bit smaller and the base would have been the same size. It didn't take that long to fussy cut it and it was easy because there wasn't a lot of nooks and crannies to deal with. I added Dimensionals to the back and I set the piece on the front of the card.

The words came next. They are from the "One of a Kind" bundle and were stamped using Real Red ink. They were then cut using the second largest die in the "Deckled Circles" set. I like using those dies for winter words because I think it's got the look of a rough snowball. I used Dimensionals and tape to set the piece in place on the front of the card.

For the final touch I added some crystal rhinestones to the front and the card was done.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,

Greetings of the Season, Season of Green & Gold, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. I found it on Pinterest. You can see the original card here. I changed it a bit. I couldn't find any measurements there so I had to wing it. Please read on to see how it was made.

Materials used here:

Old Olive card stock (1/2 sheet folded)

Season of Gold & Green DSP

Pecan Pie card stock (for the layer behind the strip and circle)

Basic White card stock (1/4 sheet for inside and a piece for the          words

Pecan Pie ink

Dimensionals

Double-sided tape

Sequins

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Old Olive card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.

On the front I cut a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Season of Green & Gold" 12" x 12" package. The strip measures 1-3/4" x 5-1/2".  The layer behind it measures 2" x 5-1/2". I taped the two layers together and then taped that to the front of the card about 3/8" from the fold.

Then I fussy cut two bunches of leaves and a set of bells from the same package of DSP. 

The words are from the "Greetings of the Season" set and were stamped using Pecan Pie ink on Basic White card stock. I cut them out using the 9th die from the "Deckled Circles" set. Then I cut a Pecan Pie circle using the 9th die from that same set. I taped the circles together. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set aside.

I laid the fussy cut pieces on the front of the card and laid the circle on top to see where the pieces would look the best. I removed the circles piece and taped down the fussy cut pieces. Then I set the circle pieces in place. Using both tape and Dimensionals on the bells and I set them in place on the front of the card.

I took some gold sequins I had and glued them to the front of the card and the card was done. 

My card was a bit different. I didn't have the same words so mine were larger and that changed the look of the card. And I placed the fussy cut pieces on the card differently. I do like how the card turned out, it's got a nice rich look to it.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,

Greetings of the Season, Take a Bow, Joyful Images Ephemera, Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Christmas card to share with you. I found one on the internet that caught my eye. I didn't have the same images to duplicate that card so I went with what I have. You can see the original card here. Please read on to see how I made the card. I'm trying a new format out. I thought I'd list the supplies/materials needed first so you can gather them and get them ready  for when you read on to see how the card was assembled. Please let me know if you like it.

To make this card I used:

4-1/4" x 8-1/2" piece of Real Red card stock (folded in half)

4" x 4" Basic White card stock

3-1/4" x 4" piece of Real Red card stock.

2-3/4" x 3-1/2" piece of Basic White card stock.

2" x 4" Designer Series Paper (DS) from the "Take a Bow" 6" x 6" stack

Scrap piece of Basic White card stock

Real Red ink

Pool Party ink

Blending Brush

Image (stamped or die cut)

Words

Tape

Dimensionals

Embellishments

Okay, let's begin. The first thing I did was I taped the 4" x 4" Basic White piece to the inside.

The piece of DSP was taped on about 3/4" up from the bottom.

The 3-1/4" x 4" piece of Real Red card stock was taped on next. I had taken a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of copier paper (card stock will work too) and I lined up the bottom edge with the card's bottom edge. Then I taped the Real Red piece in place by lining up the top edge with top edge of the copier paper. Make sure you don't get tape on the whole piece. About 1-1/4" of the Real Red piece is exposed on the backside. This is where you do not want tape.

I cut the rectangle using the largest stitched rectangle from the "Nested Essentials" set on a 2-3/4" x 3-1/2" piece of Basic White card stock. I used Pool Party ink on my Blending Brush and scrubbed it on. I also scrubbed some on the scrap piece of Basic White for the words. I centered the rectangle on top of the Real Red rectangle and taped it in place.

The words I used are from the "Greetings of the Season" bundle and were stamped using Real Red ink. I cut them out using the second smallest circle in the "Deckled Circles" die set. 

The cute little stocking is from the "Joyful Images Ephemera" package. I set it in place using Dimensionals.

The words were set in place with Dimensionals as well.

I have been trying for a long time to get the peppermint candy embellishments from Stampin' Up! and they've been sold out. The one time they were not sold out I wasn't able to order them because I was out of town and on a computer that wasn't secure. When I got home the next day (yes, the next day) they were sold out again. I think this is an item Stampin' Up! needs to bring back next year, it's obviously very popular.  Anyway, I had some tiny polymer clay ones that I had made years ago so I thought I'd use them on my card. I'm considering making some in 4, 5 and 6mm.  They don't take long to make but it's craft fair season and this is something that I don't have time to squeeze in on my list of things I need to get done before the last two sales. But after the 16th I'll have time and I may even put some in my web store. They will look like the ones on my card except nicer. I know how to make them better than I did 10 years ago.

This was a fun card to make and I thought it was a great way to focus on the die cut stocking. Please let me know what you think of the new format.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,
Wanda
