Hello, friends! :) The four day weekend my daughter and I have been enjoying has come to an end, and she's returning to school today...
Today's card was created for this week's Jacksonbelle Embellishments Tuesday Challenge. This week, we're creating everyday cards using unconventional paper... I had a stack of Cosmo Cricket Holly by Golly paper that I hadn't opened yet, and when I saw this sheet of candy canes and mints, I knew it it was *perfect* for the challenge! :) LOL, okay, okay, so my card is a little corny, but still, it's cute. :)
