Serendipity #25 - Shaped Cards



Only 10 more days until Christmas...shopping and wrapping are finished, just need to get the cards in the mail and some cookies baked (we will do those next weekend), so other than popping a few gifts in the mail, we are ready for Santa to make his visit.  I know you are all very busy this time of year so I will keep this short and sweet.  I only have one card to share today and it is for the current challenge over at Serendipity stamps and the theme is "shaped cards" and I do realize that my card is not really a shape other than a rectangle but I just had to put these sweet little penguins on a sweater, so my shape is a sweater, and I have few extra photos to share too....Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and peek at my cards....have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

Last night was Santa Con Pub Crawl in San Francisco - there were more Santa's in this city last night than you can even imagine...some folks worn elf costumes, other were snowmen...just so much fun.  I could not convince my family and friends to wear costumes this year other than Santa hats, so I will work on them for next year, so wish me luck.

Our tree this year....

  11. Hey Kim - awesome pics! Your card is cute, creative and 'cozy' (as in sweater)! The Santa pub crawl sounds like it could be a whole lot of fun (except for the sore head the morning after).

    AND YOUR TREE....UM, YEAH.....TOTALLY GORGEOUS! Love how you have the sideboard decorated as well. I would venture a guess that your entire house gets decorated during the holiday season...right? Figured so! It must look amazing at the hands of such a talented creator!
