Christmas Cheer

christmascheermaureenplut

Hi everyone!  I’m in the home stretch of my first semester…only 3 more weeks to go.  Reports are done and going home this Friday and most of my assignments are typed and handed in.  Just two more big ones to work on and some presentation notes for my first Power Point!  Woohoo!  I’m excited about that one!  So with this past weekend’s breather, I got to play a bit in the studio and create a few special Christmas cards.  This one is for our lovely Music teacher.  I am in constant amazement over how she orchestrates over 200 children for a performance!  This special card will go to her after our upcoming Christmas Concert.  I thought this sentiment was most appropriate :)

I’m also playing along with the final Festive Friday challenge!  I’ve participated in 19 challenges so I qualify for their grand prize…BUT, everyone who participates in this final challenge has the chance to win a $20 gift certificate.  I chose to play with their Star Element challenge again!  I’ve die cut some stars out of glitter cardstock and added some sweet little gold star sequins as well.  Hope your week is starting how in the best way :)  Thanks for stopping by!

I like this card - it's the kind of card that I'd like to get in the mail for a holiday card.

Oh, my…is she gonna love this!?! Beautiful, Maureen! LOVE the music theme at the holidays anyway! But it's especially nice for someone who's chosen music as such a big part of their life! You may have saved the best for last…but I've loved each and every one of your creations for us at Festive Friday this year! So glad you found time for us and we so hope to see you again next year!!!
