Sweet Song of Christmas!

Hello friends!   Did you have a fantastic weekend?  I know a lot of my friends and family were recovering from Thanksgiving and running to the stores to cash in on those mad Black Friday deals. 

We finally had our Thanksgiving yesterday (yay!) since we had to cancel the festivities on Thursday with my little one being so sick this week.  Poor little sweetie is just now starting to perk up!  It was wonderful to have my family around the table, laughing and singing, and mainly eating themselves into a stupor.  :) 

Since I didn't have all that holiday prep last week from postponing the holiday, I made this card with one of my favorite sets from Clear Dollar Stamps called Christmas Cuties!!  The images and sentiments are just too darn cute and what's even better is there are two different versions in the store - a pre-colored set for when you are down on time and a black and white set for when you feeling like coloring the day away!


Hope you all have a fabulous start to your week and thanks for stopping by :)

Medium:  Copic Markers
Image & Sentiment:  Christmas Cuties by CDS

    Sorry to hear your little one was sick for the holiday, Sara, but SO glad you were able to finally get your feast and family time. Your card is adorably festive. Love the colors and mix of patterned papers you used, and of course your coloring is fabulous. Too cute! :-)
