Today's Twisted Sister challenge was to create a religious Christmas card. (The real reason for the season)
I don't have any Christmas or winter stamps other than snowmen because my daughter creates my cards. Soooo I went to Mike's and spotted these rub-ons. I had a TS coupon (thanks Pat) in my hand and got them for 50% off. Hope this counts. I really struggled with this one..

Oh thank goodness! I thought you colored those birds and was studying hard! Lol- what a wonderful job Sister. Your paper and nesties are just gorgeous. Love the added sparkle to those lil chirpers too. Sure is good to see you in this place. Still praying for that arm pain. LYMI XO

Gorgeous card - love those rubons! And it's all put together just perfectly... But I'm willing to wait a bit and enjoy what little bit of summer sunshine we have left before I can bring myself to think Christmas just yet!
