2nd Day of Christmas - December 31, 2012

Frosted Designs 2nd day of Christmas requires the use of two stamped images in your layout.  I used two tags as my journal space and stamped a Christmas Tree and Present as my two images.  This project has been really fun, and if your ambitious, you should try to play along.  Not only did I get one page done for each challenge, I went ahead and finished the second page to match!

1st Day of Christmas - December 31, 2012

I decided on December 29th to play along with Frosted Designs 12 days of Christmas. You had to complete 10 out of the 12 days, and that is exactly what I did.  This is the 1st Day of Christmas which requires you to use a bird in your layout.  My bird is on the ornament - a Partridge in a pair tree!

Christmas Card 2012 - December 27, 2012

Finally, I have my Christmas Card for 2012 posted.  I barely made my Christmas cards this year because I suffered from a kidney stone and had surgery, plus again I waited to late to start my cards.  My goal is to get my Christmas cards made by July this year.  Let's see what happens!! 

I used a Stampin Up embossing folder for the background.  Joys of the Season cartridge to cute out the poinsettia, and stickles to enhance it!  I pulled out the Merry Christmas stamp from an old Stampin up set from 2002 and some decorative ribbon stashed in my box.  I made about 40 cards this year.  Thanks for stopping by....looking forward to a new year!!
