Conie Fong Red Robin With Berries Christmas Card

Hello friends!   I hope you are doing well.  The weather here finally turned cooler; so now I am freezing all the time.  I don't know which is worse being too hot or being too cold.  LOL!  We keep our heat on 68; but I get emails all the time from the gas company telling us we are using double the gas that our neighbors are using?  Do you think they are trying to intimidate us to use less gas?  I do smell firewood smoke all the time; but we can't use our fireplace; due to my allergy to smells, which includes smoke.  It is frustrating.  I guess that is life.  

I tried for hours to get a good photo of this card; but the orange does not look accurate at all.  I am finally giving up and going to show the best one I could get out of around 50 photos.  This one is with my iPhone; but still not accurate.  

I love this cute little Conie Fong Red Robin With Berries.  I couldn't think of anything to create until my teammate on Conie Fong DT, Laurie Alexander created a stunning card using this image; so I cased her card, trying my best to make mine different than hers.  I did search the Internet and Pinterest before giving up and creating one similar to Laurie's.  I also discovered that the Red Robin is different colors; depending on which country they are from.  I found the tree background die that Laurie used and then went from there.  Now if only my photos had cooperated.  LOL!

My husband is still testing positive with COVID, for those who might be wondering.  He convinced me to test myself this morning; so I did.  I have no COVID symptoms, just my normal aches and pains, headaches, sinues, etc. that I have every day.  I tested negative.  He was surprised but I was not.  LOL!  It just proves to me that COVID vaccines work.  I had the latest COVID booster on Sept 14, 2022 which is supposed to protect from the Omicron virus.  I know the vaccine is not meant to keep you from getting COVID; just keep people out of the hospital.  I know the protection tapers off over time; but I hope mine holds out until we have to take another booster.

Click here for my new CTMH Videos. I added CTMH Workspace Wonder products to my desk a few years ago; and I was not able to use my video recorder on my desk after I did that.  It took me a long time to finally come up with a way to do videos with that same recorder; but on a different arm/holder.  Thanks for your patience. 

Remember - Keep On Creating!!

It's Good For Your Health!!
