Greetings, Unity friends! For today's Friends With Flair, I'm sharing a beachy Christmas card I made for a dear friend. She, of course, has received it by now, so it's safe to trot it out.
My kids are home on Christmas Vacation until next Thursday, so I don't know how much I'll be around the ol' blog here. We are having fun playing and hanging out!
Loving your beachy Christmas card! We had a bunch of snow dumped on us for Christmas and even though it is pretty the beach sounds pretty good right now:)
The sandpaper is such a clever idea!! Your card reminds me of the ocean-y cards we used to send out when we lived in Fort Lauderdale. Now, however, we're in Boise and it's a lot colder!!
Well, I just LOVE my starfish card, Emily! Thank you soooooo much. I enjoyed poring over every lovely detail and sharing this withh visitors to my home. Enjoy the days off with your family!
This is perfect for those of us who live in tropical climates! I love these sweet starfish! Happy New Year my dear friend! Bear Hugs, Carol P.S. Hope 2013 promises to be filled with many creative pleasures!
I am so sorry to have missed your posts. I have stopped by but they didn't show up for me until this morning. I think I need to refresh more often. Your beachy Christmas stars are so fun and cheerful. So cute to add the sand paper. I am sure your friend was thrilled to bits with it! Hope you had a great Christmas and New Years and are all rearing to go for 2013. Cheers! :)
