A Merry Christmas ATC SWAP and Stamp Simply Metallics

I am hoping you are all recovered from TOO MUCH turkey yesterday!!! It was a Thanksgiving Day Holiday here in the states. And many have Friday off as well.  They call it BLACK FRIDAY. I do not participate in BLACK FRIDAY shopping.  If you do I hope you are all in one piece and got all great prices in your challenge to shop, park and drive.  Me, I've Enjoyed a quiet, creative day here at home.
Savoring some luscious flavors my sister created from our Thanksgiving Day meal. Wow..she is the best cook. Turkey, dressing, green bean casserole, relish, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberries, wild rice and a sweet potato casserole that was out of this world.  More like a desert.  Pumpkin Pie with Whipped Cream.  And she sent left overs.!!!   My 2 Sisters are Heavenly...always there, always friends.

I've always wanted to play along in an ATC swap and in November I saw that Kimberly of ArtJoyStuff  was doing having A Merry Christmas swap and I was early enough to participate.
What Fun!!! 

Well today I received my ATC from Kimberly



Isn't it adorable?  The flower is so satiny soft and lovely.  THANK YOU KIMBERLY.



It is the one with the white background, and big white flower, she packaged it in the pocket with the little tag tied on the front..  a Truly Cherished Trio.

Earlier I sent her my ATC. I love the challenge of creating on a tiny space.




Some layers of snowflakes topped with a button , a paper doily topped with delicate silver ribbon, a little Graphics 45 image, red felt ribbon, and some wired gold beaded trim. At the bottom more gold trim and a little Be Merry sentiment from my stash. 

I have to mention too that all of the trim on this little ATC were products I won over at

No Time To Stamp   This is a BEAUTIFUL sampler collection of METALLICS that Sharon has for sale at the Stamp Simply Ribbon Store
She definitely has quality items to offer for your crafting needs.

Well, thanks for stopping by, Again Thank You Kimberly for the fun and the beautiful ATC trio.
Enjoy the weekend
