Good Morning Friends,

Welcome to another DL.ART Thankful Thursday.

You have heard the term CHRISTMAS IN  JULY?  That always cracks me up because you would think the half way point would be June. That is the theme for this challenge.

I love Christmas, when I say that, what I really love about Christmas, is that most people are truly on their best behavior.  It has got to be the Christmas spirit, there is joy in the air. I am hoping you feel the Christmas spirit on my post today and will enter this super fun Super easy challenge. Just Christmas
what ever you like card, tag, present, project banner--- anything just as long as it has the Christmas theme

    Great card, Diana! I like the way you used that embossing folder. I'm new to your blog and saw your reference to PT and pain, so went back to see what happened to you. Wow! No wonder you're hurting! My prayers are with you as you continue your PT and the healing process. Blessings and hugs!!!

    Diana, love this card and how you highlighted the 25. I have to have this Embossing folder. Another creative card. I am going to get a card together for this challenge, since I love Christmas.
    BTW-I feel terrible because I keep meaning to ask you how you are doing...so how are you? I get so wrapped up looking at your work and forget to ask.

    Take care!
