Christmas in....August?

Hi stampers! Yep, it's Christmas in August!  Why???  Well because you can shop from the HOLIDAY CATALOG now (PS my site has a cool new look now, yay)!  You can download the Layar app on your smart phone and interact with the paper copy too! FUN!  If you need a copy, let me know!

So, before I show you my card I want to apologize for not posting much this past week.  It's not been the best year around here as most of you know and it's not getting much better.  So, we found out that we aren't pregnant again and my hubby got a not-so-good diagnosis for some problems he's been dealing with for a while and just a lot of other life stuff.  So, I needed some alone time :-)  They are also changing up my hours/schedule at work and I'm a bit worried I won't have much time to blog or even stamp.  Kind of hard to stamp if you're working ALL day every day and nights and weekends too..... :/  Anyway I'll try to share more stuff soon!

So, in honor of the new catalog I have a Christmas card today!  This was a quick swap I whipped up before I left for convention.  I have a soft spot for vintage Santa's....sorry it's a bit blurry.  It says he's making a list and checking it twice.

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Santa's list
Paper:  Very vanilla, baked brown sugar, season of style DSP
Ink:  Cherry cobbler, baked brown sugar
Accessories:  None

Isn't he cute?  I love him and I'm glad I got him inked up so soon, hehe!  Make sure to check out the holiday catalog!  It's super!!!!!  I hope I have some time this weekend to play with some of the goodies!!!!

Happy Christmas in August!  And happy stamping!

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
