Peace, Joy, Love...

 
Hi, Friends!
 
Just thought I'd pop in quick to share with you one of my Christmas cards I made.  It is super easy peasy!  I started with a white card base and paired it with black and red paper.  The red paper is from American Crafts.  I made a tag from a panel from Lawn Fawn.  Twine from Paper Sweeties(green apple) to finish the card.
 
In light of all the things happening in our world, we could certainly use more peace, joy, and love!  Two of my friends were overseas recently.  The one was in Paris and due to fly out the evening everything happened.  We thank the dear Lord she made a safe return!  And, my other friend and her husband made it back a couple days ago from Italy!  We take so many things for granted.  So, yes, peace, joy, and love to you, my dear friends!
 
One more thing...
 
Visions of SugarplumsLori  Hairston has hosted the Christmas hop for several years now.  There will be three days of fun beginning December 6th with wonderful Christmas creations from several talented designers!  You won't want to miss out seeing all the awesome Christmas inspiration!
 
 
 
Ok, friends, that's all for now!  Take care and have a wonderful weekend!
 
Hugs,
Maria
