Can you believe how close we are to Christmas?! How did it sneak up on us so fast?! I hope your preparations are going well; I'm amazed at how organised I've been this year: the cards are sent, the presents are wrapped and a couple have already been hand-delivered for the special day! All I've gotta do is sit and wait....I like that! :)
Anyways I'm zooming by with yet another Christmas card (what else?!)
Still stickin' to the traditional colour combo I love so much, and still giving it a modern-kinda twist with Modern Basics posing as holly :)
Again, as I've dabbled with this fabulous colour combo, I'm entering this card into the current JUGS challenge too:
I'll be back again before the big day with a few more Christmas cards to share but if you don't pop back before Christmas I'd like to wish you all a fabulous Christmas!
Catch ya later!

So creative! Merry christmas!
Oh yea...loving these modern basic cards. Have you seen Susan's Simplicity blog with so many cool ways to use this set? You'd love it if you haven't. This is all kinds of gorgeousness yet again Aimes! thanks so much for playing along with Just Us Girls again!
Way to make this set work for Christmas!! Enjoy the waiting! I'm still teaching today and tomorrow (arghh)--hard to keep these teenagers (and myself) motivated to work.
just waiting? Well get over here and help me!! lOL I actually am not too bad with the preparations...just sugar cookies to bake today after my hair appointment. A few gifts to wrap and then we're done. Christmas day will be hectic with Jake flying back to Vancouver and preparing for 32 people for dinner! Yikes! I love how you've used that stamp for the holly leaves!!! Your genius never disappoints, Duchess! love the little bling, of course :) I used to only like Merry Christmas sentiments, but when I thought about it, I really like my 2 weeks of holidays too and they are definitely happy ones :) Oh, I saw a fabulous Christmas card in the Create Christmas book last night. I won the copy and the December issue on their FB page last month :) Gorgeous! Hugs!!
Love your modern holly card paired with traditional holiday colors.
