Hello Friends… I’m so thankful and very blessed! My 16 year old granddaughter Trinity and her friend Emma have had a sleepover tradition for the past three years at Grammy’s house. Oh what fun it is to treat the girls to their favorite food place, shop for last minute gifts, and mint chocolate shakes from Braum’s. After filling the girls tummy’s, the living room and kitchen were soon filled with wrapping paper and bows everywhere. Chuckle, chuckle! It was one o’clock in the morning, thirty-nine packages, and two Hallmark movies later, everything was beautifully arranged under the tree, with no help from Gram! Now that is that a blessing or what? I must say the laughter and time spent together is PRICELESS! It’s my hopes you and your family create special memories such as mine this wonderful holiday season… most importantly please remember to honor and celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. I’m so thankful for Christ’s birth and praise him… Glory to God in the highest!

This card is one of my favorite designs ever, it reminds me of the old classic movie ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’. The sentiment is from the stamp set ‘Christmas Means More’ and coordinates perfectly with the ‘Sounds Of The Season’ and Detailed Dove’ dies. The flocked vellum ‘Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper’ provides a gorgeous background for the ensemble. Sadly, all items listed will not be carried over to next years catalog and will be retiring. So if you’re interested in purchasing any of these items, they are only being offered while supply lasts.

• Stamp Set: Cherish the Season Bundle #155154, Christmas Means More #154730,
