One more Christmas card done! This stamp is from a cute set at Clear Dollar Stamps. The wagon comes with a number of accessories so you can make cards for different occasions – hearts, fireworks, birthday present/balloon, etc. Plus, when I went to find the link on their website, I found another fun accessories set that I will be ordering soon!
I watercolored the image and matted and cut it out with nesties. I added two black buttons for the tires. The DP is Cosmic Cricket Jolly By Golly. The “Rolling By with Some Holiday Cheer” sentiment is from the Clear Dollar Stamps set. The “Merry Christmas is from Studio G.” I added some buttons to hold up the easel card and a pretty bow to top it all off.

I found out today that my sister, Rose, will be going to the hospital at the beginning of December for heart surgery. She has rheumatic valve disease and this is her 3rd valve replacement surgery. That doesn’t mean that it isn’t, each time, a very serious surgery. That being said, I will be spending most of the month of December in Utah. Rose and her family took care of me after my transplant so I’m honored to be able to return the favor.
But never fear, I will be bringing my Cricut and a good part of my crafty room with me!!! I’m going to try to get as many DT assignments done as I can before I leave, so that I won’t have to worry about bringing some specific things with me.
That means I get to spend Christmas with Rose’s family again this year. I’m really looking forward to that!
Now, off to make my card for the Bee Crafty Challenge this weekend. I’ll be sharing that with you on Saturday!!!
Blessings,
Christine
