Peace This Christmas Tag!

Hi, Friends,
It has been a long time since I have posted.  I decided that I wasn't going to put any pictures online until I figured out how to watermark them; unfortunately it took me a long time to figure out how easy it was to watermark!  Anyway, even though it is hot here in Tennessee, I put on some Christmas music and designed some Christmas tags today.  Here is what I came up with:

I really liked the way it turned out, and be sure to check out my awesome watermark!

Thanks for stopping by!
