Please don’t forget about the Merry Mistletoe stamp set and Be Merry Designer Series Paper. They are hiding in the Annual Catalogue, but at beautiful and perfect for quick and simple cards, which is just what we need at this time of the year, right?

    Hi Liz, as you asked – I prefer the Garden Green/Cherry Cobbler base to the Cherry Cobbler/Garden Green base.
    I also prefer the CC reindeer because CC is closer to brown than GG is.
    If I was to stamp the reindeer in GG then I'd go for 'second generation' stamping to tone it down.

    Thanks for sharing this quick 'n' easy card which I'll use for my Maccy D's Hoose Event (it's what our son B.J. called McDonalds and how he pronounced the second word of the Respite Hospice he loved going to 18 nights a year. <3

    Love this idea! I just made one with a GG reindeer. Since I have leftover Real Red Ribbon, I used that with some RR cardstock on a GG card base. I was worried the reds might clash, but it works out great.

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
