Merry Christmas Darling...

{{ETA: Sorry about that ladies... minor posting problem with the pixs... please let me know if you still cannot view them... Thanks!}}

greeting cards have all been sent... the Christmas rush is through... but i still have one wish to make... a special one for you.... Merry Christmas Darling... we're apart, that's true... but i can dream, and in my dream... i'm Christmasing with you...

ahh! my old time favorite song... please don't picture me singing it though... i'll only sing it once a year on karaoke... and OMGosh! let's not even go there... LOL... i'm getting in the Christmas spirit and was listening to some Christmas songs when making this card.... among my favorites, Merry Christmas Darling by the Carpenters... i just LOVE LOVE LOVE that song... hehehe...
what is this you ask! i was being silly and started playing with acetate sheets... and then i happened on the Crazy 4 Challenges blog... this weeks #11 challenge is to use acetate... and then a light bulb turned on (and not very often does it)... light bulb told me to do the TGF FFF Wild Week 2 sketch on it... and it is a TOTALLY fabulous sketch by one of the DTMs - Cindy Haffner...
here's my card as a whole... don't worry, i'll break down the sketch for you... i really love this digi... it's so sweet... colored this couple up with copics... added christmas tree green stickles to the green parts... added a green rhinestone to her bow and some red rhinestones for the berries... i actually made this for the DH... he went fishing so i thought i'd use the sketch to make his card... there is actually some ribbon holding this card together because i love to put our cards on our tree... now it's perfect for hanging...

this is what it looks like when you lift the top flap...
and this is what it looks like when you left the 2nd flap... now, put it all down... and there you have my card... but i'm sorry you have to scroll up again to see it whole.. =D i have to hide this before he comes home... eventually, i'll add a base to write out my card to him, but i won't just yet... it was fun making it... something different for me... sorry about the pictures again... some came out okay and some didn't... i think i have to ask Santa for a new camera... =D

Hope everyone is having a great Friday... the weekend is finally here!!! yippeee! Enjoy the weekend friends... and i'll be back tomorrow with another sweet treat!
