Let it be Christmas....ho ho ho


It's time for another blog hop at Just Inklined!   This month our theme is Christmas, so you are definitely in for a treat as you follow along.  There are so many new images to choose from, and of course, so many tried and true from prior years.  Put your feet up and enjoy!

Blog Hop order
Karen L., Joyce (that's me), Gaynor, Karen J., Dawn, Tammy, Tangii, Jak

Be sure to leave your comments, for your chance to win one of the two spot prizes!



I couldn't resist this one, and you can find it here!  After his busy night, and a job well done, I really think Santa is deserving of a wee tipple when he gets home. Nice and easy to colour, with all of that white, so I gave a bit of yellow glow to the background.  Papers are from MME, and I added some names to a list so that Santa doesn't miss these very important little ones!

I hope you enjoy the hop and find lots of inspiration to get cracking on those Christmas cards!
