When Susie gives us a challenge...she gives us a challenge!!!! We were to include 12 things on our card to illustrate the Twelve Days of Christmas. At first I thought this was going to be impossible but...I did it and it wasn't too bad. This is going out to Jacqueline, mom of Jeannie (Lv2grdn) who recently moved to an assisted living facility. Let's make her first Christmas there a great one!!

Polly, your vintage ‘Pere Noel’ on your gold embossed base is indeed glorious! Your vast collection of vintage images always amazes me and Mom will adore your card!
Thanks so much for this lovely card!
Warm hugs!

At this rate I'm going to be in the kitchen for a month! Pol this is fabulous. I love vintage Santa stamps - they never look dodgy like the new ones. The rich gold embossed holly is the perfect backdrop for your 12 days of Christmas. This is beautiful and is sure to be loved by Jeannie's mum. Thanks for coming to the teaparty.
