Christmas In Your Heart


Happy Wednesday everyone! It is getting so close to Christmas. All the family is on break, we have puzzles lined up to work on together and a few days before the presents under the tree appear in force.

 Even so for so many, for me and my family too, Christmas is part of our everyday life. That's what I love about my card today. The ornament stamp by Stampendous is just perfect to share the meaning that stays with us all through the year.

I know it is a busy time of the year for all of you so I'm making a short sappy intro and now here are the details to my card. I'll see you back here tomorrow with one more card from my Stampendous stash!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster.

And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
