Not Done With Christmas Cards

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!

A few days before Christmas I made a card for Jason's Grandma.  I scraplifted it from a card I saw on Pinterest.  The original is from Jacqui of Crafting Daydreams.
I am entering my card in a few challenges.

The Unusual Challenge

Whoa!! I totally forgot to post my challenge! I have been so distracted with Lindsey's birthday party and Christmas stuff. I still have to do some more cleaning and go grocery shopping this afternoon.  Yikes!  Why do I wait to the last minute??!!

This past week the challenge over at Stamp-n-Doodle was to do something unusual.  Meaning, anything other than a square card.  I did a frame.  I am also using the Caroling Trio image.
Thanks for looking a have a fantastic week!!  I am hoping for snow soon!
