Seasons Greetings

So I woke up this morning and my first thought was "it's only Wednesday?"  The past couple of weeks have been absolute whirlwinds as I prepare for three different Annual Membership and three different budget approval meetings.   You see by day I am a Community Association Manager and while I absolutely love my work, it is exhausting.  And that's one reason why I love my crafting, exercising and obstacle course racing so much.  It allows me to unwind and just chill out.
 
So today I thought I'd share a card I made for my favorite holiday - Christmas.  Christmas has always been magical for me.  I love celebrating the birth of Christ, being with family and friends, giving gifts, creating all the fun craft projects, and decorating.
 
For today's card I used one of the penguins from the Holiday Penguins file by Marjorie Ann Designs.  On the large ornament I used a snowflake rhinestone sticker I had in my stash.  I love the added bling it brings to the card.
 
For my sentiment I used a variety of stamps.  On the outside of my card I used Simply Christmas from Craftin Desert Divas.
 
On the inside of my card I used the stars from the Christ is Born stamp set from Jaded Blossom.  The sentiment itself is from the Merry & Bright stamp set from My Craft Spot. 
 
And now I'm off to enter my card into the following challenges:
 
Hiding in My Craft Room - Super Scraps Saturday -  Ends October 17th
 
DL Art - October Linky Challenge - Ends October 31st
