Merry Christmas..........

Hello Crafty Friends!!!!

This is my last batch of Christmas cards

for the year!!  I usually only gave

out picture Christmas cards each year but 

started making handmade cards for my 

crafty friends to exchange with for 

Christmas. It has been fun. I just don't

have a lot of Christmas stamps. I did

however use 4 different stamps

plus a sentiment stamp to make my card.

I Love how it turned out!!! 

I love these dogs from the Mama Elephant

set Playful Pups!!! And those trees are really

candy corns from the Lawn Fawn Trick or Treat

stamp set!!! I saw Naomi on the Lawn Fawn blog make

them and I had to try my own! And those gifts are

from the MFT Pure Innocence OverFlowing Joy. The

cute Santa hats are from the Lawn Fawn Holiday

Party Animal.  I had a lot of fun making these.

I made a 3rd dog but thought it was too busy

on the front so he is inside. Unfortunately I didn't 

take a picture of the inside.  But he is a cutie too!!
