Merry Christmas
My card today is the same card I sent out this year . . . I made 100 of them so it was pretty easy to do.
I started with a Thick Basic White card base and added a layer of Secret Sea. Then came a layer of designer series paper topped with more Secret Sea and Basic White layers. The sentiment is stamped in Secret Sea. Super simple but very pretty!
Today is a quiet day at our house. The kids will all be here this weekend and it will be anything but quiet. I am taking a break from posting while they are here. I will post a new card on Tuesday morning. I did decide to turn on the lights on the tree and just sit and reflect over my 70 years of Christmases. As a kid we always traveled every other year to my aunt and uncle's house where ever they lived. There was a lot of chaos then as well with six kids running around but we sure did have a good time. After John and I got married, we always celebrated our own Christmas at home and then took off to his parents house to celebrate with his family. My family always celebrated the weekend or two before Christmas. There was no shortage of chaos at either of our family's Christmas celebrations. There have been a couple of Christmases spent at a hospital, but we celebrated none-the-less.
As I said in a picture I posted last night . . . "Christmas is a time to celebrate the love in our hearts and the special people in our lives. Thank you to all of my friends and family for being a constant source of love and support."
Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!
