Getting Ready for Christmas Next Year

I never get a good start on Christmas cards. Why? Because I can't get into the Christmas "spirit" until it's the Christmas season. Since I'm trying to use up some Christmas images I have, I'm getting a start on next year's cards now!

Another image from Stamping Vacation's December sponsor, Cardmadfairy.

Whoa, boy, I messed up the oval placement on the scalloped oval but couldn't remove it without damaging the image... So I did what any cardmaker who was too lazy to redo the whole thing would do... I covered it up! The 2 bows don't actually look too bad in real life...

Not too happy about the coloring either. Difficult to color around the snowmen on the snowsuit...
