Merry Christmas to all my wonderful stamping friends. By the time you are reading this I am walking into my Dad's home surprising him on Christmas day. I haven't been to his house in 3 years for the holidays. It will be a joyous day. My entire family will be there. I am so excited.
This adorable image is from Teddy Bo. I fell in love with the sweet Teddy Bears she has in the store. I saw several more and will save them for Valentines. I am hoping that you are enjoying your time with family and friends this holiday season.
I am offering some Christmas Blog Candy: A $25.00 gift certificate to any online stamping or crafting store. All you have to do is leave a comment below and I will pick a winner on January 1st. That gives you plenty of time to visit. I know these are busy weeks.
