Happy Friday!!! Phew! The weekend is upon us!!
I am sorry if I have not been around to comment on all of your blogs, the flooding, commitments and computer glitches really ate a lot of my time the past few days. Hopefully, I can get to you today!!

Today I would like to share a card I made for the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge. using the Our Daily Bread Designs Friendship stamp set and a sneak peek set from ODBD called Blessed Christmas.

STAMPIN SISTER IN CHRIST CHALLENGE

Laurie Gatton was the hostess this week at Stampin Sisters in Christ and she chose the scripture:

I Chronicles 16:34 “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.” (NIV)

The challenge was:
Make a card that expresses your thankfulness for someone or something they have done, or that encourages someone to be thankful.

I used the Our Daily Bread Designs Friendship stamp set and a sneak peek set from ODBD called Blessed Christmas. I used the Mojo 110 sketch.

Card Recipe:

Yesterday I received some Happy Mail from my dear sweet friend and dt sister from Inky Impressions, Kristine Breach!! Kristine is also one of the founders and Senior Dt members of the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge. When things were very frustrating for me yesterday....she brought a true smile to my face and a glow in my heart. Look at these goodies!! Isn't she just so talented and sweet. She also sent me an ornament kit that I can't wait to play with. Thanks Kristine!!!

Making friendship with good person is good thing.But after making that we have to maintain that it's so tough thing.So to maintain with that to girl we have to give them gift of cards and chocolates as well as flowers also.
