You're So Sweet

Merry Christmas!

I needed to take time out from the hustle and bustle and make a card for one of my favorite challenges, The Shabby Tea Room.  And, I had fun doing it!:-)  This card is a thank you card for a friend. 

How is your Christmas week going?  I have more wrapping to do.  I need to frost cookies for a Christmas party tonight.  And, I want to make chocolate covered pretzels within the next couple of days.  Wow, can you believe Christmas is nearly here?! 

For my card, I first tore off a layer of cardboard and painted it with white paint for the gingerbread man.  I added brads, ribbon, and twine.  Clear buttons were colored with a red copic marker.  I shaped a silver pipe cleaner into a star.  I distressed the papers with tea dye ink.  Lovely flowers were added in the corner, trim, and sewing to finish off the card.  Thanks for stopping by today!  I'm wishing you and yours a blessed Christmas filled with peace, love, and joy!  Take care...hugs!!:-))
