It's A Little Early For This But....

I am one of those people that don't want to see Christmas stuff in stores or hear Christmas music playing until after Thanksgiving. I love for each holiday to have its own "time." I guess they do - just months before they actually occur! :)

So I surprised myself when I pulled out my new Santa stamp that I won last week at Country Blessings (Thanks Barb!) for this week's sketch at Sketches! by Tamara. But I thought it was a perfect fit for the sketch, so early I am!

I stamped the Santa and sentiment in Night of Navy ink on Georgia Pacific white cardstock, and then sponged the edges with Bordering Blue. My scallop rectangle Nestabilities is cut from Bordering Blue cardstock. The snowflake brads are from The Paper Studio and I thought they would make a good border along the bottom of the card. I have a whole box of fibers that I have been trying to use up - I don't think I ever will since there are soooo many of them, but I bought them when fibers were "the thing." The GP cardstock background is embossed with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder.

Be sure to check out the rest of the Design Team's cards HERE and play along!

Thanks to all of you that left suggestions and kind words about my dogs. I have talked with the vet and we are on a "watch and see" mode. It was nice to know that it is a common occurence, but unless they become longer and more frequent, that we are not to worry!
