I have been such a lazy crafter since mailing all my Christmas cards! What a joy, what a relief when the last few get in the mail - am I right? I'm already making for next year! Spurred on with a few fun sets I borrowed - more on that soon!
I was coaxed into crafting by my friend Karren... she has a mighty cute Sketch for us over at Freshly Made Sketches #615:
I found a few more oldie but goodies in my stash recently - more PTI, a little Altenew, and a beauty from The Greetery to be exact... they turned out to be perfect for Karren's sketch - I hope you agree! All of the bits of flora came from Joyful Florals; the framed circle is not even labeled it's so old; but that sweet little bow is Altenew's Bells and Bows set that finds its way out every year. The star of the card might be that gorgeous Lattice ribbon die from The Greetery.
All tied together with another Pinkfresh sentiment banner.
Hope your December days are merry and bright!

This is so bright and pretty, Michele! It was a big relief to get those Christmas cards in the mail and I already have your beauty that I have studied and it makes me so happy that Santa is bringing me a new toy for Christmas so I can CASE you again. LOL, what would I do without your inspiration and enabling!
So pretty. I love all the detail and how it all ties together perfectly. Yes, I do understand the relief when all Christmas cards are done. I am nearly there but not quite! xx
