Happy Hanukkah

Good evening!
I'm happy ---- The Patriots won!  

So, did you know Hanukkah begins on Tuesday? 

This year, I bought a couple small sets of Hanukkah stamps. I wish I could have found a menorah stamp -- next year.  I love this Star of David one.  The light burst is a separate stamp in the set.  I just love the effect!  So, did anyone else, non-Jewish that is, notice the Star of David is a six-point star while most of the other star stamps/dies are only five points?  I had to fussy cut one of these so I could pop it up because my regular star die did work.  Oh well.  I learned something!  I think I knew that but just haven't paid attention to it much (until working with stars).

It's been a busy day of laundry, a bit of cleaning, raking leaves (again) and getting down the rest of the Christmas decor.  I promise it will ALL be done before this Friday, even fixing the tree lights finally too!   And...look at this little imp!


Why do cats like attics?  Everytime we open the door, he literally runs and tries to go all the way up.  Well, tonight he finally did----twice and ran all the way to the other end of the attic away from Dave!  We both were so pre-occupied we forgot how much he loves climbing up there!

Anyway, here is my Hanukkah card I made using the sketch from Technostamper's challenge.
