A Hat Trick of Cards - Holiday, Holiday, Birthday

Stamp Credits: Stampin' Up!, Cuttlebug background
Lots of Icicle Stickles :)

Although there's not much happening on this blog right now, there's plenty happening at home! I did get some holiday cards mailed out, and today my brother arrives for a visit - he lives overseas so we don't have the pleasure of his company too often. This time around we get to meet his girlfriend too - so I'm trying to get the house straightened out (losing that battle completely), prep for Christmas (nearly there), and generally keep my sanity at the same time (not sure how well that's going, I'm not a very objective judge :)

The first card above is going to the UK, where they might actually have snow, the card just above is going to Australia, where they definitely DON'T have snow, and the final card is for a holiday birthday dude - it's tough to have a birthday so close to Christmas, they seem to get smooshed into one! I'm seeing St. Patrick's Day potential in this one :)

Wishing you all a good week - stay calm, peaceful, merry and bright, OK?

    Pretty cards. I especially love the first one.

    I can't wait to get my Cuttlebug! I'm scorin' one from Santa (aka Mom).

    If there is righteousness in the heart,
    There will be beauty in the character.
    If there is beauty in the character,
    There will be harmony in the home.
    If there is harmony in the home,
    There will be order in the nation.
    If there is order in the nation,
    There will be peace in the world.
    So let it be.

    Merry Christmas!
