Merry Christmas

I love simple sketches, as regular visitors to my blog will know, so this one from CPS appealed immediately.
Here I have used a Cuddly Buddly digi paper and Cuttlebug die-cut trees  which I overstamped with a Tim Holtz Paisly stamp in gold. I  added a Stampin' Up sentiment on the lower panel which I edged with a SU border punch. Clean & Simple!
I haven't been out of the house for a few days, but my husband, who is the grocery shopper in our partnership, ensures that we always have enough food in the house to withstand a lengthy siege! We haven't run out of anything as yet and today there seems to be a bit of a thaw so all hopefully will be well.
