Silent Night

Hello Friends!

Today is Heartfelt Creations Wednesday once again and today I have another Christmas card. This is one holiday I always need to get a jump start on making cards. I remember one year I didn't get enough Christmas cards made and ended up purchasing a box of cards from a store. "OH that didn't go over very well." Ended up getting a few phone calls asking why they didn't get a handmade Christmas card. Think I have everyone spoiled, isn't that what it sounds like to you... LOL

Let's get on with todays card.
