Happy Holidays!

holiday-plaque.jpg

Hey, I just wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  I am taking a bit of a break from blogging until January 2, 2011 so I can spend some much needed time with my family and friends before I hit the road again.  Feel free to e-mail me during this time.  I will be checking it.  🙂

Please stay safe and have the best holidays ever!

Much love to you,

Michelle

P.S.  Check out this poem I received from Pauline Slovak.   Gotta love it!

Brayers roll. . . . are you listening.

On the card. . . . ink is glistening.

A Beautiful sight. . .  we’re happy tonight.

Stamping in a Winter wonderland.

 

In the kitchen we can stamp a snowman.

Then add color to his carrot nose.

You’ll say:  Are you Finished?

I’ll say:  No Ma’am, I need to add some glitter to make snow.

 

When we stamp . . .  ain’t it thrilling.

Even when . . . .  the powders spilling.

We’ll create and we’ll play. . . .the art stamper way,

Stamping in a Winter wonderland.

Thank you so much Pauline!

    Merry Christmas Mickey, your card is lovely.
    I love the song too, it made me smile.
    I hope you don’t mind, but I wanted to share it with the girls in a card making group I’m in.
    I thought this song was fab, you just can’t help singing it.
    I let them know where I’d got this from, that you’d posted this on your blog and I gave credit to Pauline too, she’s very clever coming up with this, thanks for sharing.
    I hope you have a happy, healthy, creative New Year.

    hugs

    This is Pauline, the one that Michelle wrote about. I did not make up this cute little tune, it’s actually a stamp I bought. Glad everyone liked it though. I wish I could be that talented. lol
