December 28, 2012

The last Friday of the year is here and we survived another Christmas. They seem to come faster than I ever remembered as a child! We had a very quiet Christmas for a change this year, just the three of us! Chose to go out for dinner instead of spending the day in the kitchen, which was JUST FINE in my books! The weather has been really cold, which has been a great incentive to stay put at home and catch up on well needed "down" time! Life will get busy again once the routine of work, school & hockey starts up again.

Fridays mean Friends With Flair days at Unity Stamps. This is a card I made for a friend's birthday using the set "Growing In Unity". It was a free set with order that I received this year, and wasn't sure if I was in love with it! After playing with it, I am sure it will become a favourite.
