Welcome Christmas

We are definitely welcoming Christmas here at the Schafer house! The kids are so excited as they help me finish up the decorations. The sweet image on my card reminds me of our family...it takes ALL of us...even my dear husband who helps me with lights!
My card was inspired by the Mojo Monday Sketch 270, the Challenge 137 at Mark's Finest Papers using red and green...

the Tuesday Trigger: Shimmer & Shine...

the Pile it On 49: Pile on the Embellishments, CASology: Sparkle, the Friends of Speedy TV Challenge 49: Christmas Card, and the Crazy 4 Challenges 166: Favorite Holiday Stamps.

I used some Stampin' Up! stamps, Welcome Christmas, and so Designer Series Paper from a couple of years ago...love the rich colors of the Always Artichoke, Cherry Cobbler, Soft Suede & Crumb Cake together:)

Thanks for stopping by the stage!
