Hi Crafty Friends,
I am at the last day of the Salvation Army Angel Tree Crop. It has been a fun couple of days with my friends, raising money for the Angel Tree coming up this Christmas!
One of the cards I had on the card buffet at the crop is my second Christmas card for 2021! It uses the Words of Cheer stamp set.
This was the first set that really caught my eye in the July-December Mini Catalog, and was a really fun card to make!

Happy stamping,
