Christmas Card Art

One of my friends sends me beautiful handmade Christmas cards each year.  Last year I packed away the card with all of my Christmas decorations knowing that I had to find something to do with it this Christmas season.  It really is a piece of art, so I decided to frame it as such.  Not only is this a no cost project, it holds special meaning to me since it was given to me by a great friend.

I borrowed a frame from my office, and some scrapbook paper I had laying around.  I probably would have gotten a different paper if I was at Hobby Lobby, but this is what I had.  Best of all this cost me nothing, and I didn't have to put on makeup, do my hair and bundle up the baby.

After I cut the scrapbook paper to size I realized that I liked the back side of it better with this particular card.

...and her she is!  I think it turned out great, and I love having things of importance to me out around the holidays.

Once I get feeling better, caught the bug from the little man, I'll post the rest of my decorations.  I.heart.Christmas!!
