I'm baaaaaack. After a very busy past six months, I think my card making hiatus is over. Living the sandwich generation is not easy or for the faint of heart....with older teens in the house and aging parents with health issues on both sides, it has been a very, very busy and exhausting time. I had very little time to myself and absolutely no energy to be creative so reading a good book always won out. Withe the dust starting to settle the past few weeks, when I saw Julee bringing back the
Mojo Monday sketches, I was
very, very excited and it was the perfect impetus to create a card. I have always loved her sketches and they were the perfect jump start I needed to get crafty again :)
With Christmas a month away, the timing was perfect to make a Christmas card. I have always loved this Echo Park Winter Time paper and these Reverse Confetti trees were crying out to be used. I paired them with some dark brown and avocado green paper, a pop of silver and topped things off with some silver cording and two silver bells. Happy sigh... :) :)
