Hooray for Friday!
Even an old retiree like me looks forward to the weekends!
lol...(get to see my handsome man a bit more :)
I have the sweetest card to share today. I tried very hard to keep this one clean and simple, as I have OODLES of deadlines to meet between now and Monday...
Today's image is a C.C. Designs Swiss Pixie digi image from their October 2011 release. It's called, "Baby Jesus & Angel" from All That Scraps.

The minute I saw this sweet little angel, I knew I'd be buying her! And how fitting it is that I'm posting this card today, as it is "set up the Nativity Scene on the fireplace mantel" day at our humble abode! The Nativity is always the first Christmas decoration to go up, followed by the tree, and then 'everything else'.
I've entered very few challenges in the past few months, SO...
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
Just For Fun: Winter
Scrapbook Sisters: Christmas
Craft Your Passion: Tis the Season
The Kraft Journal: Christmas Card
Stamptacular Sunday Challenge: Anything Christmas
Scrappy Frogs Challenge: Use Kraft
Craft Your Days Away: Bows

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Hugs and smiles galore,

It IS strange how some stamps just seem to take on a life of their own and call our names...glad to see I'm not the only one! She is a cutie and you did her justice, Patti.
So very pretty - love all the accents especially the bow with the twine - and what a cute image to work with.
Such a sweet image and your coloring certainly does it justice! TFS!

Hey Patti! This card is just adorable! I love how you used the image! We are close together! I'm about 30 minutes east of Kansas City. However, I love to visit St. Louis. There is so much to do with my kids =) I always think about how much fun it would be to able to get together with fellow Dt members! I guess I can dream =)
She is cute Patti, love your card today!
