Santa Claus comes tonight...

Hi guys!

Bet'cha thought I had frozen into an ice statue what with being MIA these past few days. While it is still feeling very sub-Arctic out there I've managed to stay fairly warm and cozy though I'm currently a bit under the weather... bleh. Luckily I've got a couple days off to try and kick this thing. 

As for today's card, I have a cousin and he and his wife just had their first baby this year so I had to pull out this sweet Baby's First Christmas stamp from Lili of the Valley and make them something special. I paired him up with papers from the Simple Stories Handmade Holiday collection. Even though it was released a couple years ago it is still one of my all time favorite Christmas lines. The cut apart designs especially make for quick and easy cards that look like I put a lot more work into them than I actually did. ;)

Well, I'm going to go take some Dayquil and see how the day goes.
TTYL!

I know for me when you're missing, I worry about your mom. Don't want you sick either though. Stay warm and get well.

Love this little boy, so sweet. Great texture on his reindeer.

I so love this little guy. I think it would make the perfect First Christmas Card for my Great Nephew that just came into the world this last Friday night. Love your card as always my friend. Feel better and take it easy. Hugs Lisa
