Christmas In July Day 1

Good Morning,

I have my Christmas tree up and lit.  The stockings are hung, I have some nice hot chocolate...and it is going to be 99 degrees in Maryland today!  Ugh!  The snow is softly falling outside my window, oh look, the neighbor children have built a snowman!  I have some Christmas music playing.  Oh it is so cozy and warm.  Here is my first Christmas card.  I made it for my next-door neighbors the Davidson's.  I love these digi stamps where you can insert a name.  This one is from Digital Delights by Looby Loo and it is called Christmas Mailbox.


Merry Christmas!  Thanks for stopping by today!

    This is so cute. what a great digi and to be able to put any name on the mailbox 99 that's a hot one. that would melt the snow in a minute. Isn't it nice to get the Christmas card's done early?
