A couple of days ago I told you that I had been working on Christmas cards all weekend and here is the first of them. I have two additional reasons for needing lots of additional cards this year and both involve a local craft fair which we will be holding as a fund raiser in support of our local "Relay for Life." I just committed to doing this so all the cards I'll need are in addition to the ones for family and for donating to our local senior center.
Not only will I have a booth to sell Christmas cards but I'll be doing a Make and Take for kids with Christmas card kits which I'm putting together myself. Those will be fairly CAS, mostly die cuts or black and white/sepia Vintage images and mats/frames of holiday colored CS, made with really simple die cuts.
But today's card has a Sarah Kay image and is actually going to be used for family, probably my great-granddaughter. :-D
I adore this darling girl getting ready to make her house warm and inviting for the holidays. She's cut with an Unbranded die. Both papers are scraps which originally came from a Recollections stack. The sentiment came from QKR Stampede. The sparkly gold ribbon was in my stash and I dyed a hand-made, white, satin bow with my ProMarkers.

How nice of you to be making cards to sell for Relay for Life! That is wonderful! I don't know how you keep up with all of this! Your Christmas card is adorable, reminds me of Holly Hobby!!
I've been so lax lately visiting my friends' blogs - I am going to try changing that! I just popped by to see what you were up to & what a beautiful card!! Love it & I wish I could color as prettily as you! xoxoxoxo Love, Christi
This is GORGEOUS, love the image and the papers are a great choice with her. Good Luck with the card things, sounds like you are going to be VERY busy. :)
