Hello to all!! This week Stef has chosen the wonderful blend of colors consisting of Pear Pizzazz (which I have somehow lost so I had to substitute it with certainly celery), cherry cobbler and Garden Green. The dessert is using Metallics. Being that Veterans Day has past and Christmas is coming soon....what better than getting a surprise visit from a beloved service member. I want to thank everyone that has served this blessed country by sacrificing their time, safety, and lives for the protection of my loved ones and me. I am eternally thankful for your choice to defend our Freedom. Thank You!! I started my card out with masking the pine trees then hand drawing the road behind my figure, which I tried my darnedest to make her coat resemble the Army uniform. I colored the gifts then placed it on my desk. I looked at it and thought...now what?!? I walked away, them return about 15 minutes later and looked at it again...I thought...she needs to be meeting me at my door as a âIâm finally homeâ surprise present. So I placed the porch under her and the planters at the sides of the door. The image hit me harder than I thought! How I pray that God protects ALL our service men and woman so they too can live to see another Christmas with their loved ones. Iâm Hoping you all are enjoying the challenges so far. Thanks again Stef for choosing these wonderful colors.

You are so creative! I love this scene with a family member coming home for the holidays. The stack of packages is so fun and festive. The trees, porch and road made a perfect vision of Christmas joy!
