Card #106 for 2025

Dear blog readers, I had a hard time making a choice for the challenge at:

The Paper Players

So many things come to mind for favorite Holiday image.

Let me just list a few of my favorites, before I talk about the card.

Holiday images that would be my favorite. 

~Christmas Tree

~Horse drawn Sleighs

~Christmas Bells ( Silver)

~Garland around a Fireplace

~Stockings hung by a fireplace

~Nativity Scene

~Christmas Ginger Bread men & houses

~Jolly ole St. Nick

~ornaments. 

~pretty much any thing nostalgic and lovely

Now for my card I chose snowglobes.   I started collecting

them when I was a child, in fact I still have one of the very first ones.

Sadly though I got rid of some of my collection because I was running out 

of room.  The few I still have are in a curio  cabinet .   SO this is why 

I chose this for my favorite image.  There's just something magical about a 

little world of snow in a glass globe.  Peaceful and dreamy. 

The stamp set I used are:

Stampin Up:  Still Scenes

I had to use a little piece of DSP, because I just needed to include some plaid.

If I could afford it, I'd have a library with plaid wallpaper.  It is so cozy.  

I added a small gold ribbon to the side of the plaid, and dry embossed the 

white card stock with snowflakes, then stamped, colored and die cut the images.

Always my best choices come after I snap the picture and glue things down.

But how fabulous would the plaid have looked under the gold on the globe base?

Ugh!!  well I guess that's for next time.  At least just to see if it will look nice. 

Patriot pup is flopped out on my feet while I make supper.

This way should a morsel fall to the floor he can immediately

retrieve it.  Little food vacuum.

The verse I chose for this card is:

Matt 21:22 KJV

And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

 Thank you for stopping by for a visit.

UPDATE:

On Nov. 19th, I will be going in for surgery.  I humbly ask that you would 

pray for a safe and successful surgery with no complications or injuries this time

and that when they reconnect my intestines it will all work as it should.  

Thank you kindly.💗  

Here is a link to a few of the other updates along the way.
