And after choosing some pleasing new colors to compliment my graphics, I go and post CHRISTMAS cards! Woopsie! { Can you say, "color clash!" } Oh the frustrations of a color-lovin' paper crafter never cease. Well, never mind all that, because Moxie Fab World is hunting for some Christmas Spirit with a cool challenge for STAMPED Christmas images! I've included four different cards for their consideration. I hope to spread some joyful anticipation of the season, which, astonishingly enough, isn't that far off! {Please forgive my rambling, once again: too much time and too much coffee imbibed in front of this little machine....} Let me just share some holiday fun with you lovely folk:
CARD #1
A nice, warm but wintery card, to get you thinking thoughts of magical snowflakes, etc.

Dear E,
I see your creative juices are flowing freely again. I love all your Christmas cards. It reminds me that it is that time of year to begin planning for the holidays.
The EKG is over as well as the blood work. Yay! The nurse even took my photo of the day for project 365 with my EKG draped over me. It didn't look like an earthquake to me so I think it was normal.
I hope to paper craft all three days of the holiday weekend. Happy Labor Day to you, your family and all your bloggers.
