I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas! I know I did! I feel so blessed to have my little family to share the holidays with. :)
It has been an incredible year for our family for sure! Cort moved to Misericordia, Kyle is away at college, Brian and I traveled to San Francisco, New York, and we are heading to Nashville for New Year's Eve. On top of that, Brian started a new job a few weeks ago. It was scary and exciting all at the same time! I am normally ready to usher the new year in, but I am okay lingering in 2016 for as long as possible! ;)
I have another ornament that was on the SRM Blog yesterday. It is a shaker ornament using dies from Spellbinders and Tim Holtz inks for a bit of soft color.

I added veins to the poinsettia using a white gel pen. I added a Christmas sentiment from SRM as a final touch.

Cort is home for a few more days, so we are taking her and Kyle (because he is a good "big" brother) to see the movie, Sing. We are trying to cram as much family time as we can before regular life kicks in again. ;)
Thank you for stopping by today!
Have a wonderful Monday!
