Merry Christmas!
I hope your Christmas week is wonderful beyond compare! Since it is Christmas Day, I thought it right to show you one more Christmas card. This is for a very special lady named Martha. Martha has been the cashier at the grocery store for a long time & no matter how long the line, we always get in her line to be checked out. Except for the last week of October. Martha takes the last week of October off every year so she can decorate her whole house for Christmas. She packs up pictures from the wall, knick knacks, the whole works & replaces it all w/ Christmas decorations. She laughingly mentioned someone told her she had OCD (Obsessive Christmas Disorder). So I knew what I had to do, lol.I stamped, colored and did a little out of the box on the snowman & Santa to put a window around them. The string of lights was colored, fussy cut & added on top. The O.C.D. letter were die cut and I added the rest of the greeting below (a little rearranged to fit). Rudolph & a couple of Santa hats were also fussy cut.
Here's a look at the inside. When Martha told me last week she still wasn't ready for Christmas, I thought this greeting would be perfect. Below it are the massive amount of Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by & have a very Merry Christmas!

Julie, so cute!! Love the bright beautiful way you color sweet friend! Merry Christmas!
How adorable! What a perfect card for your cashier friend, Julie. I know she loved this - who wouldn't. I think next year, I need to take a week off and get ready for Christmas - that is a great idea. Hope your Christmas was wonderful! Hugz
