I'll Be Home

"I'll be home for Christmas  /  You can count on me  /  Please have snow and mistle toe  /  And presents under the tree  /  Christmas Eve will find me  /  Where the love light gleams  /  I'll be home for Christmas  /  If only in my dreams..."


There's a light dusting of snow outside this morning and it finally feels somewhat like a Wisconsin Christmas! I'm popping in today to showcase a few cards showcasing contents from Artful Delight's December Card Kit.

The above card is based on Authentique Paper's current sketch challenge. (Featured on the above card is Authentique's Gathering Collection-their Bloom Patterned Paper and Icons, which are elements included in the kit!) 
 

Next up is just a fun number playing with some beautiful patterned paper and eclectic stamps included in the kit! Tons of fun this kit is, and I've still got so much more elements from the kit to play with yet!

Allrighty then, just a quick post today because I'm off to celebrate my son's birthday today and a certain someone else's birthday this weekend too! Merry Christmas to you!

  2. love the card Karen with all the different bits and bobs on it.
    We also received a dusting of snow yesterday, but with the weather for the next few days it will be melted today and I am okay with that.
    Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas.
