I hope you enjoyed the holidays and had some time to relax with loved ones. I took some time away from creating (to clean my craft/kitchen table) and to cherish this sweet season.
I was blessed with some very thoughtful gifts this year and wanted to send out a few Thank You notes. I chose a few elements and then put them to work making a set of cards to pop in the mail. I am rarely attentive to how much sassy stuff I pile on a card, but I wanted these to be easy to mail. I'm typically a 'more is more' kind-of gal but I do love the result I got from these two designs.... and I especially love the hint of Christmas from the color scheme.
Of course, I'm most thankful for my two little sweeties.
Wanted to share my joy with you:

Denise, both cards are gorgeous. Love them! And your kids are so cute!!
The kids are adorable... now, you need to remember to do a pic similar to that every year!! I do a Christmas Eve pj pic (with the "newly opened pj's) every year, holding hands, side by side, in front of the tree. It is awesome!
And, I *love* the cards! They are PERFECT!
Adorable, adorable children! And I love the card, too!

Wassail is one of my all-time favorite collections - that is one line that I have held on to every last scrap piece to use for as long as it'll last me. The kidlets are adorable - looking so happy.
Both cards are awesome and I love that music stamp! I just thought you were using paper. Too cool!
