I have some new M5D releases to share with you today....just in time for the holidays. I chose to make my sugar plum fairy card a bit more on the neutral side. It does give the perspective that you can use this image for something beyond Christmas. I like to mix it up a little sometimes ;)
My second image is a really cute mouse by Shawne Arnold, and I decided to make this a combined ornament/gift tag. I am participating in Operation Christmas Child, and I am attaching this to my package that will be shipped to a needy child somewhere in the world for Christmas this year. I think from a very early age that I enjoyed giving gifts a little bit more than receiving them. It's such a warm and happy feeling to know that you may bring a moment of happiness to someone by such a small gesture. If you would like to join in this brilliant program to help a child smile this holiday season, there is still a little bit of time left. The last day to drop your package off is November 22nd. You can find out if there is a local drop-off site in your area by clicking HERE. I had so much fun shopping for this.

Both very BEAUTIFUL Carolyn..I do loveee the mouse..Loz
WOW, Carolyn, you really did a GORGEOUS job on this card!! There's so much sparkle and yumminess about it--LOVE LOVE!! Also... your ornament is too cute and such wonderful embellishment to any package. I and my girls are also doing Operation Christmas Child this weekend! We've done it for the past 3 years and they enjoy packing the shoe boxes for other children in another part of the world. Great program. We watched a video on it last Sunday in church and it brought tears to my eyes to know how God planned a certain box of shoes to go to a girl who needed them so much that hers were held together by wire and she was ashamed to go to school. God is so good! =) Blessings this holiday season to you and yours!!
Hugs,
Kris

I love how you used her for a non-Christmas card! It's beautiful!!!
Your tag is adorable and I'm sure the child will love it. I write for the Scrapbook Royalty blog and just found out about that charity last week. When I cam across it I wrote about it but don't have the time to put something together. It's such a wonderful project!!!
Carolyn that card is a stunner and the ornament/tag was such a surprise to see, I didn't know you were doing that, it is adorable and I love that it's going to a sweet child for Christmas, I think they will love almost as much as the gift inside, almost ;)
wow stunning work, there's so much to look at and so much detail, just amazing!
Good luck in the challenges and thanks for playing with us this week.
