Happy Winter card

Christmas is just 3 1/2 months away!  Are you ready?  Have you started your Christmas cards?  If you plan to mail your cards you need to have them done by the beginning of December.  I am slowly adding to my stash of holiday cards and hope to have them done in time.  Of course, there is always the mad dash right before  Christmas to finish.  I am hoping to avoid that again this year.

This is my DT card for The Merry Christmas Challenge.  Our theme is always Anything Christmas Goes.

Fabulous Fall

Fall is my favorite time of year!
