Merry, Bright...and Quick....FMS613

 



I am feeling a bit behind this time of year when it comes to holiday cards!  But this card came together quickly thanks to a simple tag and pretty paper,  Six cards were made in no time!  I never use the same design for all of my cards. Batches of six work best for me and then I am ready to move on to a new design. Then there are those cards that are a one and done! (You know exactly what I mean!) 

We are having a cold icy rain as I type this on a Tuesday evening.  Hope your Thanksgiving travels don't get delayed because of this storm moving eastward across the country. I'm happy my daughter lives five miles down the road - I'm sure we will get there on time for our turkey dinner!

I have a lot to be thankful for - including being a part of this wonderful crafting community!  Happy Thanksgiving!







So many possibilities with Kim's wonderful sketch!  I made a slight adjustment for my tag but I don't think she will mind!  Hope you join us at Freshly Made Sketches!
