Wintery Christmas Cactus

Photo Details
Poster: TexasGrammy

 I just had to play along with the TLC challenge this week, working "out of the box". C'mon and play along! Recently I spent some time in Albuquerque, NM, and had the pleasure of going up to the crest of one of the mountains alongside the city. Snow had already fallen a few days prior, and the view was wonderful. While I didn't see any Saguaro cactus such as this, the image definitely brings the flavor of my visit to mind ... and makes me smile!

I love the Christmas lights on your cactus! In NM they decorate cacti; in Florida they decorate palm trees! Whatever works!

The cactus was great with this technique! Your card makes me think of the Charlie Brown All I want for Christmas is a Dog. I am sure Spike decorates his cactus with lights at some stage.
