I kept the sketch real simple this week at Freshly Made Sketches because who needs complicated this time of year?!? I am one of "those" people who refuses to do anything Christmas until Thanksgiving dinner has been cleared. So as the Polar Express heads toward Christmas, things at my house are bustling. I am finishing cards, shopping, wrapping - and starting tomorrow - baking! This sentiment is so sweet that I thought it should take center stage on my card. It describes the atmosphere around here perfectly. No time to chat today - there is a freshly cut tree on my porch waiting to be decorated!
I LOVE this sketch. I need to make time to play this week.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great card. It's so cheerful and festive, it will surely put a smile on the recipients face.

ReplyDeleteGreat card Linda! It really caught my eye - love it! And I love, love your sketch! This is one I'll use over and over again!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, Linda. I love that sentiment too but haven't used it yet. It's perfect here as the focus with a sweet Gingerbread boy to enjoy it!
