Merry Christmas

I'd like to share a card I made for next Christmas.  I'm so proud of myself, I've got about 8 cards made already.  I'm doing much better  than any other year.
This card is made with all retired SU! items: paper, card stock and punches.  The gems were in my stash.   Seeing as how it was still very cold here today I got into the Holiday mode again.  Wednesday it is going to be 50°.  Hopefully I can get some spring cards made then.  We'll see.  Have a great night and thanks for visiting.

  9. I really like that green houndstooth pattern with the red! The flower is layered perfectly and I like those 3 red gems too! Enjoy the heatwave! LOL It poured here today until mid-afternoon, so most of the snow has melted.....just in time for more next week I hear :)

  14. This is beautiful, Donna! I love the warm, homey feel of the papers. You are doing so much better than me on your Christmas card goal. Our weather has been in the 80s though (yes, in February!) so it's been hard to think of Christmas. Praying that you get some Spring weather soon. Lots of love and hugs to you!!!

  16. Pretty Christmas cards! I need to get working on Christmas cards again (so I don't run out next Christmas like I did this past year) With the weather so nice and warm these past two days it's difficult to get in the frame of mind to make Christmas cards...smile!

  17. It's very pretty and I like the 'country style' feel of it! Very warm and cozy. Gingham is always so welcoming & this looks great with the pop of bright red. Love your posey trim too. Good for you at making Ccards ahead. Maybe join in with the HLS Christmas challenge??? And I also love that you used retired items to make this beauty. Hope you get some warmer weather soon. TFS & Hugs

  19. Hi Donna! Thanks for stopping by my blog; it reminds me how tardy I've been again about visiting you! I really love this Christmas card--there is something really pretty and unique about your layered and gingham poinsettia! Excellent! I saw a photo today in the paper of kids sledding in Mass. Hope it gets warmer up there soon! Just cold and gray here.
