Welcome to the December Calling All Sistahs Blog Hop. You should have come here from Kelly Griglione's blog. Wasn't her card fabulous? You know, this is SUCH a busy time of the year for everyone. My husband and I are empty nesters with nearly all out family out of town and there still are not enough hours in the day for working, wrapping, addressing Christmas cards and packages, trips to the post office, baking, decorating...well you get the drift. But in the midst of all this busyness it is easy to neglect ourselves. You know, we as women all do it....putting the needs of others before we take care of ourselves. Hence the theme of this month's blog hop....to remind you to Make Time. It only takes a few minutes to do a self exam in the shower or while getting dressed in the morning. What about your mammogram? Are you up to date or has the doctor been nagging you to get it done? Please make the appointment today. It could save your life.....it did mine. If you want to read my story click HERE
I made a quick and easy card and it took no longer that it would take to make an appointment. Because, you see, it really does not take a lot to care for yourself and YOU ARE WORTH IT!
And there are prizes...Michele, the owner of CAS-ual Friday stamps has generously offered
$15 gift certificates will be given away to (3) people that comment along the hop

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Simply gorgeous is your card. To make something so quick and with not a lot of materials shows how talented you are. If I did this it'd look like a 5year old did it. Actually theirs would be better than mine. I'm such a newbie lol. Thankyou for sharing your talent. A very merry Christmas to you. X
