Loving You is My Favorite Kind of Art!

I hope everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving had a great day yesterday. We cooked a turkey breast, ham, mashed potatoes, stuffing, sweet potato casserole, macaroni and cheese, mexican corn, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie and an apple pie. Had a great day over at our daughter's house. She has her Christmas tree up and all decorated and everything looks so festive. We will get ours up this week!

Have you seen Anita Jeram's latest new Christmas stamps yet? They just came out last week and holy cow, are they the cutest?? You can find them here at Colorado Craft Company. This stamp is one of hers and it came out in the Spring sometime. I just love all her illustrations!! And yes, I bought 3 of the new stamp sets so I will have to stamp a few Christmas cards with those.

I also joined this Facebook group called The Angel Card Project and they send out cards year round to those in need. They are currently working on Christmas cards to all around the USA. I signed up for that list and there are almost 800 names on that list alone. You can send to 1 person or as many as you want. They were recently featured in Better Homes & Garden and it says they send out 100,000 cards annually. I am so excited to be a part of this group. It's a really great group.

Wise Men

I made 2 of these cards - one with splatters of paint for snow and this one has no snow. I learned how to do this beam of light in Kristina Werner's online holiday card class a few weeks ago. I used Distress Oxides and blended the background. Cut out a triangle and used it as a mask and then used Hero Arts white pigment ink for the beam of light. I decided not to add a sentiment and I put one in the inside of the card.
