Tag Tuesday and some catching up....

I can't believe it's been a week since my last post....the busy-ness caught up with me. We had my whole family over for a Christmas celebration on Saturday and we had a lovely time. My son Andy and his wife Kellie are spending Christmas with her family at Hume Lake this year so we moved our gathering earlier. There was lots of preparation necessary but it was definitely worth the effort.
I thought I'd share this photo of my sweet little Bruno, he found a safe place to rest while the pre-gathering prep took place. It looks like I was a bit stingy with the tree ornaments this year....

I'm so glad to be back to creating with the Tag Tuesday Challenge at Kard Krazy. The theme this week is a Shaped tag. I wanted to use my brand new Hero Arts Blooming Heart stamp so I made a heart shaped tag.
I was also inspired by the Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World to use Black and White with Green.


I spritzed some Perfect Pearl mist on the green heart shape as well as the butterfly and the punched flowers for a little bit of shine...the close up shows the pearl mist detail.


 And one last Christmas card to share....

I used the Perfect Pearls mist on this too....I just love how it gives a really rich glow to plain paper.

I'm not sure if I'll be posting again before Christmas so I'll leave you with my sincerest wishes for a meaningful Christmas celebration!
Thought for the day: from Luke 2:10 the angel proclaimed to the shepherds,
"I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people!"
My wish for you is that you would experience the Joy of the Lord in all your holiday activities!
May you have the Merriest, Joy-filled Christmas ever....
Love,
Nancy
