For Kathleen's Falliday challenge, she asked for holiday treats. My favorite Christmas treat are shaped and decorated Christmas sugar cookies. I love them! Nowadays, they bring happy thoughts of my mom.
This is also for the Alphabet challenge letter J. My j is the sentiment - Joy. The double challenge was to use quadrille paper which is faintly in the background dp so I got the double challenge too!
I printed this image of cookies and then colored them with Prismacolor pencils. Do you see the yummy gingerbread men in the strip of dp?
The cookies are popped up with dimensionals.
Thank you, Kathleen, for the challenge and thanks for looking!

What a delightful Christmas card this is Catherine. Decorated Christmas sugar cookies are definitely my favorite treat too! I spotted those wonderful gingerbread men right away- both in your fun dsp and on the cookie tray! I am so impressed you were able to do the double challenge too- that was a hard one this time so great job! I am praying this card helped you remember wonderful times spent with your dear mother. Hugs! ~Karen.
