My first Christmas card!!!

And it is still only May! I did, however, vow to make at least one every week this year, and this is my first so far, so I am actually far behind rather than far in front!

Anyhow, this is a lovely stamp by Penny Black. The saclloped border is cut from Plantin Schoolbook, and the scalloped circle from Birthday Bash. The background is embossed with both the snowflakes and the swiss dots designs. I am entering this card in the "D is for dog" alphabet challenge here http://alphabetchallengeblog.blogspot.com/2011/05/d-for-dogs.html and the card patterns challenge here http://cardpatterns.blogspot.com/2011/05/sketch-117.html

    Super cute card. You may be far behind for you, but you're way ahead of me. Good for you, getting started early. I'm so far behind on my layouts that I can't even think that far ahead.
