Letter to Santa
So on Monday at Henry J's 1st birthday party, I asked his 3 older brothers (Bryan-9, Cooper-7, Nolan-3) if they'd sent their letter to Santa yet... They shook their heads and said "NO, not yet, Nana"... I had a look of disbelief, and smiled and said they should put that on the top of their to-do "list"! I saw this darling image by Sassy Cheryl, and knew it was THE one for their Christmas Card. I did personalize it just for the "bickford boys" (return addy used to be from Tommy-hope Cheryl doesn't mind)! The cute mailbox was perfect, found at Dustin Pike's. I was inspired to do the card all in white except the image from the challenge over at Di's Digi Designs. I cuttlebug embossed to my heart's delight (three layers of snow swirls, hand cut to resemble drifts), punched snowflakes, diecut trees, glittered and colored - what a fun day!
Warm Wishes to you!
