7gypsies venice canal patterned paper black soot distress ink for the stamp and the edges of the card i highlighted the stamp design with the magic pen gotta love the the magic pen a glittery shear aqua ribbon runs down the side and aqua lace across the bottom along with the word merry a large white lace snowflake which started out life as a daisy is covered in star dust stickels and embellished with a rhinestone star all topped off with a sprig of holly on the hat the message inside the card reads have yourself a merry little christmas i hope you do just that posted by eclectic archivist at

christmas cards are made and mailed shopping is done can you say holiday stress now i told you that story to tell you this story as i was rushing past the sun room on my way to the next seasonal chore i spotted the cat napping not a cat nap mind you but a curl up in the sunshine to get warm with not a care in the world nap didn t this cat know that christmas was only a few days away and there was stuff to do i sat down on the stool and proceeded to chastise her on all the reasons that nobody has time to be napping in the middle of the day this time of year she could care less i m sure she was secretly laughing a me i would never admit it to her but i was really envious of her nap in the sunshine what a way to spend a day ps for all of you that have asked why i haven t blogged more often
