Warm Christmas Mittens


Just a quick post here. I've been so busy with family issues and, like they say, "family comes first."  Aside from my girls and the "drama" that comes with having teenage girls, my father is suffering from Alzheimer's Disease and is becoming more and more confused and weak. It's hard when he has no idea who I am when I call him :(  Then last week, my brother suffered a mild stroke.  Thank goodness he's getting better. So, I haven't had much time to actually finish anything.

But, I was able to make this easy Christmas card using a template I made for my Cricket Expression (I love not having to cut by hand!). I filled the circles with a photo of my two girls and a sentiment made with my computer. The papers are retired SU! and luckily, I found some mini clothespins that were in my drawer of misc. craft items.  I simply clipped them onto natural hemp and that's it!

Thanks for stopping by.  Next week I'm hoping to release some of my new templates -- just in time for the holidays -- so stay tuned!
