Just a quick card today; I am under the weather again, I don’t even feel like stamping, can you believe it? I FORCED myself to make a Christmas card for the Merry Monday challenge, which is to use a Santa! I love Santas!
I went the lazy way out; I knew I had some vintage MME Lost & Found Christmas papers that had a Santa…..one piece left! Here we go:
I cut out the swirly portion from the same piece of paper and adhered it to the top left corner, then stamped a few extra words from My Favorite Thing’s Seasonal Sentiments in Early Espresso, and some snowflakes in Encore Gold:
Some shabby ribbon, burlap trim and glimmer country stars finished it off! Another one for my stash!
I am always touched when I get comments and questions about Cassidy, and some people even send her little cards and gifts, which she ADORES! She loves to get mail! My sweet friend Kim sent her a package, which arrived yesterday:
The inside packaging was almost too pretty to open!
But she got it open, and inside was an adorable little doll’s backpack! She just happened to have a doll on which to put it:
(The backpack is much more attractive than this poor doll!!!) And this was her reaction to the card inside:
It made both of us smile! Just check out this sparkly creation! How fun! Thanks, Kim!

Pretty card. I like the way you used that paper and added the embellishments. I have the same paper too.
How sweet of Kim to send that package for Cassidy. She looks like she had a great time opening it and the card is adorable.
LOVE your card for Merry Monday! Sorry to hear you aren't feeling very well. Take care and feel better soon. Hugs!

I love how you used that sweet DSP, LeAnne! Great idea. I hope you feel better soon!
I'm sure Cassidy will have the backpack filled and will have all kinds of adventures with that doll!
I love your card design Le Anne. The paper and your images are very nice. I hope you are feeling better.
Terrific use of your Santa paper, this is perfect LeAnne! So sorry you're not feeling well, snuggle in and take care. How cute is Cassidy with her happy mail!!

Sorry you're not feeling well - praying you'll feel better soon. I love how you've let the paper do the work on your card today and I love that scrunchy ribbon and sparkly star.
So fun to see Cassidy enjoying some mail just for her;) -- a cute card too.
Love this vintage Santa card! The shabby bow and sparkly star are perfect embellishments! Love the look on Cassidy's face! She sure is growing up fast! Hope you feel better tomorrow.
LeAnne, so sorry you aren't feeling well. I hope you feel better soon. I love the backpack that Cassidy received and the look on her face is priceless... she obviously loved it too. Oh.. I love your card as well!
