CHRISTMAS CARDS ALL YEAR ROUND - ANYTHING CHRISTMAS GOES


Hello fellow blogsters, just posting another Christmas card because it is the midway point for the CCAYR Challenge.  This is one I made for the son of an ex-colleague of mine.  I saw the digi at Dr Digi's House of Stamps (here) and it made me chuckle so much that I bought it even though I didn't know who I was going to make the card for at the time.

'Christmas Chris' digi - Dr Digi's House of Stamps
Sentiment - Dr Digi's House of Stamps

  18. ROFL! Define naughty, indeed! Rosie LOVES the chocolate buttons you sent. She's finished hers and is now eyeing André's. The boy is a judicious consumer and Rosie... well, she's just plain greedy. Peanut is not one to share so she's keeping a close eye on her little bag. But I digress... Cute card... and the reindeer does look like he's been
    a naughty little boy! Thank you for everything, Sue! <3

I gotta get me one of them moosie costumes!! It won't even need alterations after the binge I've been on since Halloween, through Thanksgiving, and on to Christmas. I've got a couple of weeks to lose those 30 lbs before the chocolate comes back for Valentine's Day, right? I can do it, right? Oh, hahahahahahaha!! Owell, LITS!! Take care! Hugs, Darnell
