Pretty Poinsettias

Now that Thanksgiving is over, I've retired my cute little bobble head scarecrow back to the shelf and pulled down a couple of the Christmas boxes I have saved.  With the Christmas season going into full swing, I'm busy finishing up my cards and gifts.  I only have a few more days in which to get those gifts done and packaged up for shipping.  But, today is all about decorating the tree and my home for Christmas.  It's always been my tradition to decorate the day after Thanksgiving.  I love to keep my holidays separate and take the time to fully enjoy both.


Stamp Set:  Holiday Florals (Taylored Expressions); Inks:  Crumb Cake, Watermelon Wonder; Cardstock:  Watermelon Wonder, Shimmery White, Very Vanilla; Other:  Holiday Florals Dies (Taylored Expressions, Dazzling Details

    1. Thanks, Narelle! It looked very plain before I added the berries.
