Post Card Christmas (one more time)


Hello friends.  Wow is December flying by or what!!  We finally decorated our tree and the house.
When our daughter was small, we carried on the tradition of my family that Santa put the tree up after the kids went to bed on Christmas Eve.  We had to laugh, now it took us two days to finish the tree alone, we kept stopping and starting again!!  Hey, it's a big tree and lots of ornaments.....

Today's card is for my long time friend who lives in Austin, Texas.  I promise you I have put this beautiful stamp away, but had to use it just one more time.

 
Paper - The Paper Studio
Stamp - Stampendous
Stamped on white glossy paper, sponged with Frayed Burlap and Bundled Sage distress inks.
Ribbon - Martha Stewart
Snowflake is Spellbinders die
Cheesecloth
X Border is Martha Stewart punch
 
Ok, off to get packages I need to mail ready to take to the Post Office.
Then, on the addressing Christmas cards.
 
Hope you have a great Friday.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  Until later.......

Don't put the stamp away, it is too beautiful! I could never put the tree up on Christmas Eve. When my kids woke up on Christmas morning, they would see a tree in a stand and nothing else.
