Thank you and Merry Christmas to you all.

Thanks for all your lovely 

comments and words over the past year. 

I truly appreciate everyone taking 

the time to write here.

This year has flown by again 

(I say this every year).

As I reflect on the year,

so much has happened throughout 

this year particularly in our world, 

some good and some bad.

I guess I can be very thankful for everything 

I have today in my life, 

my family and my friends are the 

most important to me.

My creative passion are next on my 

list of things to be thankful, 

this creative outlet is good for my soul,

I place to create something for myself and for others.

I want to wish everyone

A Merry Berry Christmas to you all.

Stay safe and God Bless you.

Here is a layout I created

of what I think the true meaning of Christmas 
is really all about.

Created with the beautiful 

"Musical Christmas Paper Collection" 

designed by Denise Boddey and 

available from Meg's Garden.

with wooden embellishments from Kasiercraft.

I will be having this week off from blogging land.

so I will be missing in action for a little while.

Till next week.

Take care and enjoy your family time.

Merry Christmas, Cheers Adriana XXX

Kasiercraft - Forget me not projects

honeycomb patterns with navy blue, dark mustards and terracotta colours.
