Sketch 291~Merry Christmas Street light post Penny Black Hometown Christmas


 Well folks I had to make a card today, to calm down.   I was so frustrated with myself for not being strong enough to do what I use to as far as cleaning and putting things in order.  Now I have to take so many breaks and stretch my back and legs constantly.  I feel like no progress is being made in our home as far as my part of putting it back together.   My husband thinks I've put to much pressure on myself, but I just want it to feel like home again, if that is even possible.   

Any ways I went for a Christmas card and found that this cute little street lamp would work wonderfully for the challenge at:
A lovely snowy background a few brads for embellishments and bit of sparkle ribbon ties it all together.  

I hope you all had a lovely thanksgiving.  God was so amazing in his timing for us.  I was worried how I'd manage thanksgiving this year.  My stove/oven were in the dining room until Wednesday night, our son-in-law helped hubby move it back so I could bake a pie, bars, and couple side dishes for thanksgiving Thursday.  However, the most amazing timing was the fact the kiddos bought their house, signed for it the Friday before Thanksgiving, and we were all able to get together at their home, such a beautiful blessing.  God truly worked it all out for us.  Even right down to them getting a sub-leaser last minute and myself running two ovens in two homes.  Feeling thankful for our family.   

I'm also thankful for all of you for following my blog, and becoming friends.   
Thank you for stopping by for a visit.

  3. I love how you brought the lighthouse into the sketch. Such a pretty card with the snowflakes falling in the background. I'm so glad you got your stove set up. I'm sure your floor man will fix the marks. Thanks for the lovely card!
