Vintage Christmas

Yes, the holidays are upon us....21 days until Christmas.. YIKES!  I soooo have to finish my shopping for my family.  "Santa's" gifts have already been bought, and I think the kids will be excited!! Now we have to shop for the boring "Mom, Dad and Auntie" stuff, except that may not be too bad since the kids actually did ask for some new clothes along with everything else on the planet, lol!  I've had lots of goodies come in for myself, and have some more on their way!  Have some new (used) PTI inks coming in from another PTI stamper I bought off the forums, and I purchased some A Muse Studio ink pads from another stamper friend, Monica K, who is a creative consultant for them. I can't wait to get them in!!  I'll have to show you my color charts of inks matching PTI cardstock once I get them all in :)

Anyway, before I ramble on too much more.... MY CARD!  Here is my newest creation.  I've been told it's vintage, and I've been told it's gender neutral and was told by Steve, one of the men who volunteers in my office at the hospital that he'd buy the card if he was getting holiday cards!
