Pink-ChristmasWhen Christmas rolls around, I feel that same thrill that I did as a child.

I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas

Pink-ChristmasCreating special gifts at Christmas is my passion, and if you could see my house you would know that I am crafting away and making special gifts for my friends and family.

Now Karen you have put me in the mood for Christmas!!! There is snow on the tops of all the mountains I see from my home and each day it comes a little lower. So I made hot chocolate and viewed your post. Love the music and you Santa!!! Sharon

Claudia said...

This was very fun-- you are so talented and I vote you adopt me into your family! :)

I have to admit I am staying away from stores that are full of Christmas-- I am not ready yet... I am still enjoying fall.

So, if i am staying away ... LOL you know i am staying out of 99% of stores.

If you have a moment I would love for you to stop by and say hi.

TTFN~~ Claudia ♥ ♥

Karen you almost make me like snow......almost. Kate loved her gifts and your beautiful card was a big hit. Tomorrow night we will start reading their new books together. Hopefully I'll have everything ready to join you for Pink Saturday. Still trying to get used to this new Mac. I almost want to give in and get a PC but I refuse to give in. I will have party photos and Halloween sometime this week.

Jeanne said...

Very fun! Now I want to get glitter and do crafts....

Good morning Karen! This is a real treat; this is my first Christmas as a blogger and I knew that Christmas in this space was going to be special; thank you for the preview of great things to come. Your textures really come through the photos and this is such a wonderful time of the year. God bless you, Anita
