7-26-22

 Hello-

I finally found some energy and time to sit at my desk and make a couple of cards.  I am determined to keep to my 5 cards a month for Christmas.  These two will bring me current to 36 (1 extra, so I'll just need 4 next month).

Two challenges provided the inspiration for the cards, one Less is More - traditional Christmas, and Christmas Kickstart - snowfolk.

 


 

 



      

Thanks so much for visiting.

Hi Cat. Sorry you are low on energy. I know the feeling. Love your sweet deer and the snowman and background. The shades of purple and blue are awesome!

Still feeling low from the COVID? I'm glad you were able to make a couple of Christmas cards and they're both beautifully done. I especially admire how perfectly CAS your first card is. A lovely sentiment. Your snowman is way adorable and the purple is one of my favorite non-traditional colors for Christmas. I hope you're back to full speed soon, Cat.

Well done for keeping up with those Christmas cards, wish I could say the same, but I haven't made a single one. These are both great. I love the simplicity of the first one and those wonderful snowflakes on the second one xx

Two cuties for Christmas, Cat! Love the deer in woods and the sweet snowman! Ugh - I'm in your boat; traveled to a conference & despite mask wearing, ended up covid positive :(
