I had so much fun making this card. I love this set because it's like playing with paper dolls! You can put any kind or any color of coat on the chef; and of course his hat has to match. The paper is the Christmas Cocoa Specialty Designer Series Paper from the Holiday Mini. The chef's jacket and hat were paper-pieced using the Christmas Cocoa specialty DSP.

It's 90 degrees outside, I'm playing James Blunt "You're Beautiful" on my IPOD and I'm making Christmas Cards! Life does not get better than this! Today's card is for my Christmas in July class on 2 September 2009. This card is cased from the catalog (page 35).

It's hot and humid outside yet I'm making Christmas card while listening to Willie sing "Help me make it through the night".

I have a couple of openings so if you live in the Northwest… Read More »
