MOJO267, TSTR140 & WAW54 ~ Pastel Christmas ~

Happy Friday!  The weekend is almost here!  This weekend will be a busy one at the Ulrich household!  With Thanksgiving coming up, I will be shopping, cleaning and trying to cook some items in advance.  Sound familiar? 
 
I am so very thankful for the many blessings I have received this year.  As many of you know, my mom fell this summer and suffered a broken ankle.  It was a nasty break.  Wednesday, she finally was able to leave her boot behind and walk with the aid of a walker!  Praise God!  I am so very thankful to see her mobile again and healthy! 

The last few weeks I have been working on Christmas cards and I have a nontraditional one to share today...  pastels...  What do you think?




And the Our Daily Bread Designs set I used... Christmas Door...



Love the pink, blue and white combo! I may have to try that one again! Thanks so much for stopping by and until next time... blessings...

The pink pearls and pink button tied with the red and white bakers twine ties the whole card together. It is very beautifully done.
Thank you for dropping by and sharing that lovely piece of art.
