~ 18 Days of Christmas - Day 15 ~



Hello La-La Land Craft's Fans!

Nicolette here and it is my day to share my crafty creation for La-La Land Craft's 18 Days of Christmas.  My card  is not  so much a Christmas card but rather a wintery card.  December can be a hard month for a lot of people who are suffering with the loss of missing loved ones, people who are alone for the holidays, people who have birthdays and are forgotten in the mix of the holiday chaos or lumped into their Christmas present, etc.  So I decided to make a fun shaker card to hopefully bring a smile to someone else who may need a little pick me up at this time of year.



I cannot tell you how long I have been waiting for the Happy Trails Clear Stamp Set to be released.  Ok, it's been ever since I saw it in Club La-La Land Crafts last year.  I have been not so anxiously awaiting for it to be available for everyone to purchase.  I knew the moment I saw the sentiment, "Do Not Feed the Bears", that I wanted to make the bears look like they were wearing different disguises so they could fool anyone and everyone into feeding them.  Can you tell marshmallows are their favorite treat....LOL

CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS

When my children were growing up, my husband started the 12 Days of Christmas tradition of giving the girls small presents the 12 days before Christmas to take the edge off of the anticipation of Christmas Day.  We always had Christmas Eve gifts of Christmas Day jammies.  Plus, Santa would always bring a family gift like a game we could all spend time playing together.

Now that my children are grown,  Elf (meaning me, Nana) has take over the 12 Days of Christmas for my grandson.  He either hides in fun places, gives small gifts with quirky little sayings that go with the gift or gives gentle reminders to listen to his momma cause Elf is a snitch...LOL

  5. The bears are so adorable in the disguises. this card makes me laugh, love it! I had to laugh at the Elf being a snitch comment. It is so fun while they are young and still believe in things.
