Cut It Up Challenge #267 - Christmas

Hello crafters! I hope you are all well. I have been sick for the past week. I took two different Covid tests because a couple of my co-workers had Covid recently. Thankfully, I was negative both times and it turns out I have a sinus infection. They gave me meds at urgent care and I'm starting to feel much better. I'm so far behind on everything but I'm sure somehow it will all get done. I'm trying to just enjoy the season. I took a drive last night to look at Christmas lights in my neighborhood. That always makes me happy!

Our Cut It Up challenge this week is Christmas. Here is the card I made:

Pattern Paper: Stampin Up
Glitter Paper: Close to My Heart
Wreath and leaves dies: Stampin Up
Bow and tag dies: My Creative Time
Sentiment and Ink: Stampin Up
Rhinestones: Recollections

Hello Crafters! I hope all of you are having a great week. I am very refreshed after our long weekend away. We had a great time and tried some new restaurants that were fabulous. The weather was perfect and the hotel we stayed at was beautiful. It was a weekend that we both needed and we truly did relax.

Our Cut It Up Challenge this week is Thanksgiving or Thanks. I can't even believe it is November already. This year has flown by quickly.

Here is the card that I made for the challenge. I took a class recently by Taylored Expressions (I love that company!) and I thought this card was beautiful so I decided to make a bunch of them as our Thanksgiving card this year.
