Christmas Card Using Conie Fong "Holly's Purrfect Christmas" and CTMH Holly Jolly paper and other products

Hello Friends!  It is going to start cooling down here in Southern CA.  I think we are supposed to have lows of 30's and highs of 50's in the next week or so.  That will be quite a change from 70's, 80's and 90's.  LOL!  I know there has been bad weather in areas of US already this year.  It always amazes me that there are so many different temperatures across the USA.  


I have been trying to get Christmas cards created.  I am lucky that Conie Fong has been making all sorts of adorable images that work for Christmas.  This one is Conie Fong "Holly's Purrfect Christmas" and I am in love with this adorable image.  There will be one coming out that is Holly's twin sister, named Molly and she has a dog with her image.  All of you dog lover's out there will love that one.

All Occasion or Christmas card Using CTMH Products

Hello Friends!  How are you?  I hope everyone is having time to create.  With the holidays coming up next week, I know everyone will get busier and have less time to do anything crafty.  It is a very busy time of the year in November and December.  It is still in the 90's in Southern CA.  Can you believe this weather in November?  Just crazy.  

I created another card for my friend Jason; who is going through a rough time.  I have never used this CTMH stamp set; and absolutely love it.  It seemed perfect for his card.  I am beginning to enjoy creating clean and simple cards.  You don't really need a lot of embellishments to make a card for someone.
