CR84FN68 - Week 2 ~ Celebrate The Season

This is it!  Your LAST chance to play with us this year!  And what a FABULOUS year this has been for me personally at CR84FN.  Thank you, Mona, for having me on your Design Team.  I am grateful to have a place where I can lose myself in color and create.  I am grateful for all of the wonderful people I have met who leave me such sweet comments.  I am truly grateful for everyone's immense support when my Mom passed away this year.  This hobby of mine keeps me going through the good times as well as the bad times.  I LOVE you all and want to leave you with this Christmas card:
Okay, not much gray in this card although the silver rhinestones count! 

I LOVE the way the mica chips glisten on this tree!

Whatever holiday you celebrate, I hope it is WONDERFUL! 

I am counting my lucky stars for all of my many special blog friends!

I hope you find time to play with us this one last time in 2012!  We LOVE seing what you create!  We also LOVE when you come to our blogs and leave us some love!  All of the CR84FNDT members are listed in my sidebar.  Stop by and say Hi!
