Thank You ( Christmas Plaid)

Hello!  I thought it would be a good way to close the year by saying thank you.   Thank you to you friends who are sweet enough to stop by to see what I create, to Paulina and the Pretty Pink Posh family who have given me so many opportunities to create, and to God for His many blessings this year. 

This card was also an excuse to use the Christmas scraps I had lying around.  Plus, I didn't get to make nearly as many Christmas cards as I had hoped this year (and sadly only one made it in the mail...lots of sickness around here this month), and I'm not quite ready to say goodbye to these colors. I got out my beloved Pretty Pink Posh Simple Stripes die and cut Concord & 9th's poppy, parsley, and clover cardstock as well as a shimmery silver scrap.  

To be honest there really isn't much rhyme or reason to the plaid design.  I just used the scraps I had and glued stripes here and there while I was watching a Hallmark movie :) until I had the whole panel covered.  I finished the card by die cutting the thank you script die and handcutting a border around it.  It's super simple, but I couldn't bear to cover up any of that plaid. Trust me, I tried, but I just ended up pulling everything off that I attempted to put on and left it as is.  

Thanks again, friends!  Wishing you all an abundance of blessings in the new year!!!
