Merriest Wishes

Good Sunday Morning!

Is it frosty, snowy or just downright COLD where you are?

It sure is COLD here in central North Carolina!  Brrrrr!  

It hasn't been this cold this soon in several years. And, let me tell you, when you suffer from hot flashes that make you relish stepping outside in the winter cold to cool down, but it only takes SECONDS for you to be a normal person again --- then you know it's REALLY COLD outside!  YOWSA

So in this chilly weather, grab a hot beverage,

sit down by a warm fire or heating vent, 

break out the stamps and get inspired by this week's

Digi Image from DTS Art

SPIES:

STAMPS: LilaMae Xmas 2 (DTS Art); Sentiment (Momenta).

PAPER: White card base; DP - Sweet Girl & Summer Bliss (Echo Park).

INK: Copics for digi; Teal Zeal (Memento).

EXTRAS: Bow die (Taylored Expressions); Ornament die (Taylored Expressions); Decorative oval label (Spellbinders); white flocking powder; pink glitter; Crystal Stickles; red gem.

It's my first posted Christmas card for the season.  I'm still not quite ready to be making Christmas cards yet, despite the frigid temps.  I guess I'm still on beach time from ten days ago with sunny 70s.   I used the colors from the current challenge at Just Us Girls, which seemed fitting for me since I'm not quite ready to dive fully into all the traditional colors of Christmas yet.  I tried to keep it fairly simple so the digi would stand out the most.
