Christmas Thanks

Good morning! I am here today to bring you this week's Serendipity Stamps DT challenge. This week we were challenged to create a Christmas thank you card. I must admit, sending a thank you after the holidays is something I have overlooked too often.

I wanted to keep a wintry theme with my cards, and I liked this little Snowman with Tree image.

I know that I didn't use a traditional 'thank you' sentiment, but I thought this Christmas Memories sentiment was heart-warming. It made me think of cozy times with family and friends, the excited faces Christmas morning, and fuzzy pajamas. I also thought it was a nice segue into the note I plan to write inside, about how the recipient helped to create some wonderful Christmas memories for me.

I liked this card so much that I created a second using the Snow Angel image. I thought these two made a cute pair.

I'm so glad you stopped by today, please be sure to visit the other Design Team members to see their take on the challenge!
