Card Of The Week – Happy Holidays
Hello dear friends! I want to take a moment to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a joyful Holiday Season before we scatter to the four winds to spend time with family and loved ones!
It’s so hard to believe another year has passed. 2015 seems like it’s flown by especially fast! Are you savoring the last remaining days of December or are you eagerly anticipating the ringing in of the New Year?
As I prepare for the season, I am struck by the wonder and joy that exists in the ordinary moments of our lives. This week, Magellan has transformed an annual Christmas tradition into a wondrous Living Nativity. What wonders have you observed in your life?
Finding time to create in the midst of the season’s preparations can be challenging – but if you’re looking for inspiration, check out the Creative Art Challenges below – and if you’re looking for workspace inspiration, be sure to drop by WOYWW!
Have an amazing week – and be sure to share your creations with us at one of our weekly parties!
