CAS Christmas August 2020

Are you the guest that always gets invited back … you know who you are:  walks right in ready to lend a helping hand; the first one to the sink for the clean-up; brings one, or six dishes to pass.  This little gal? definitely one of those...


Inside:
With a friend like you, who needs a gaggle?
Hope you'll come for Christmas!
 
Always like to give credit where it's due … who needs six geese, when one does the work of six?  Sending her over to CAS Christmas August 2020... or 2021?  I have to wonder if this was wishful thinking … I hear you!!

That beautiful goose...think I've seen her on my cousin's farm...and she's lovely with her clutch of eggs. Certainly, she'll be invited. And I think you've got a winner.

Just took a gander at your goose and she's terrific! Sorry... I couldn't resist! Love the little wash of color you added inside those new dies of yours! And by the way, you are a guest who is ALWAYS welcome at our house... Tom too XO

Oh goodness you are so funny. That goose looks like...really? Another one?! When will it end? (Kind of like all of us this year). Your watercoloring looks fantastic. Wow! Thanks so much for sharing and bringing the smiles! Hugs!

Brenda said...

OMGosh you are one clever girl!!! And look at that watercoloring-amazing and so beautiful. Great Christmas card! Yes, I am that person, but depends on who's house I'm going to. My SIL doesn't want you to bring anything as she likes to take all the credit, which is fine by me. Won't let me help clean up either, but sometimes I just do it anyway. But other places, I take things and a little gift and always help clean up. I feel its the least I can do! Hugs, Brenda
