I must apologize that I haven't been visiting blogs lately. I have been in a lot of pain with arthritis since the weather has gotten colder. I wasn't allowed to take anything for pain for a while because of my kidneys. They are apparently normal again and the doctor gave the okay to take an anti-inflammatory. Thanks goodness.
Anyways, this past Christmas I sent quite a few purchased cards which I prefer not to do. This year I'm going to try to finish one per week so I'll have plenty when I need them.

I colored it with Copic markers.
