This is my dad's Christmas card that I sent out to him but I put the wrong address and it came back to me. We were going through some papers this morning and found it and I am glad we did. My dad knows that it got lost somewhere but he doesn't know that I had it all along. Neither did I! I guess we need to go through our junk mail more often...

I love the Stampin' Up!'s white gel pen! For some reason though, I think of Lay's potato chips when I use it..."you can't eat just one." This card is a prime example of going over board, but I still liked it.

So I wanted to show you all what we did at our last workshop. This is easier to make than it looks. I can be used as a gift can. Just add cookies, candies, gum, etc. or a table top can to hold pencils & pens. What CAN you use it for?
GREAT COLORS!!!

Okay people...I am going to be stern on this only because I am talking to myself. If you are in love with a color...USE IT! I've been so afraid of using this bright color (Stampin' Up!'s taken with teal). But now that I've jumped out of my box and used a bright color, I am so pleased with the outcome!

So since I told you all to take a picture so that you can give out your "babies," I did that. I've given out this card to a friend who is going away to Europe for 3 1/2 weeks. It was so hard to give away but she loved it! "Have a good time Sylvia!!"
