My second card tonight was another easy card:
I won the goose image last year from Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards called Christmas Goose and printed it with a sentiment from Create with TLC. The image is pre-colored and the card looked rather bare so I added some elements from a 2002 Stampin' Up! set called Two-Step Stampin Border Builders (retired). The lights at the bottom and the stars are from that set. The ink is Momento black and various colors of distress inks.
I am entering these challenges:
- Beccy's Month of Holiday Cards: day 11 stars
- Crafty Hazelnut Christmas challenge: cute or anything goes Christmas
- Simon Says Wednesday: Christmas Critters
- Crafty Hazelnut Christmas Challenge Extra: anything goes Christmas
- Doing Life ATG with Create with TLC Element: sentiment
I'm going to leave you tonight with a picture of my favorite things these last few weeks. After loosing Alex last year at this time we are so thankful to have these two little ones with us for this Thanksgiving. Pictured with the twins are my husband Tom and I, blessed and thankful that we have these two little ones in our lives. I hope God blesses you as abundantly this holiday season.

Adorable card and really adorable twins! Thank you for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
Gosh the times flies. It's hard to believe that it's been a year since you lost sweet little Alex. And now you've got these gorgeous twins to help heal your hearts. What a great photo of you and your hubby Donna, and of course darling little Arthur and Valerie.
Both your cards are fabulous. It took me a little while to realise that the first card doesn't actually say "Happy Birthday to You". I read it that way a few times and then suddenly realised that the first word wasn't "happy". Heh heh... it's amazing what the brain can do.
Great work Donna!
Cheers,
Beccy
Awesome cards, Donna! Thanks so much for playing Simon Says Stamp Wednesday “Christmas Critters” Challenge! Beautiful colors and design. Well done!
Wonderful cards Donna. But that is a great picture and congratulations. That is truly something to be thankful for and to be truly blessed to have!!! ENJOY your THANKSGIVING!!!
Popped over to enjoy your later card, with the twin elves, but after seeing that you had a picture, had to scroll down to find this. What little darlings they are, and looks like they are gaining weight quite nicely. I can see how much you both are loving these little angels, and I know that they are doubly precious to you after last year. TFS some of your special blessings with Blogland. God keep all of you thriving, so you can help them grow up well! Hugs & hope your T'giving was a super happy (and quiet!) day. Bet you all could use some rest.
These are both great cards Donna! Of course I'm a little partial to the one from TMS :) wink wink. I love the image, sentiment and colors. Thanks so much for joining us at Tuesday Morning Sketches this week!
Oh yes and I tend to block sad things...here I did it once again. So sorry about little Alex, but God sure sent you a couple gorgeous little blessings to comfort you!
I LOVE this picture! It's amazing and the twins look so good
hugs, Valerie

Congratulations on those beautiful twins. I know they will help ease some of the pain over your loss last year. Thank you for sharing your cards (and those babies) with us at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
Sweet card! But even sweeter pic!! Your babies are adorable!
What a blessing that you have full arms after the loss of Alex plus the knowledge that he is whole and healthy with Jesus!!
