I had this
Pink Gem Designs Santa coloured up for a colour challenge then realised I got the colours wrong but it seemed a shame not to use him. The sketch is from
Sketch Saturday and the papers are Basic Grey although I don't know which one. The holly is a favourite of mine from the Christmas Cheer cartridge for the Cricut in fact its all I probably use it for.
Now my biggest concern is that its nearly June and this is the first Christmas card I've made this year only 99+ to go!
Now this is my blog and a record of all my makes and that includes Cross-Stitch. I was cross-stitching the Indian Maiden but didn't want to take it to Spain so I took this kit instead. Unfortunately that was a year ago and the other week when I was at my MIL I finally finished it.
I plan to send it to the
Lovequilts UK and my next project for them will be Ivor the Engine just hope it doesn't take another year.

What a lovely cross-stitch square you have made Debby and you are SO kind to stitch it for those children! I never heard of 'Lovequilts UK' but I went to their site and think it's a great initiative. Maybe something for myself to consider also, cause I like to stitch very much :) hugs, jolanda

Love the cross stitch and that Santa. Beautiful papers and I love the way you have used the paper for the holly. Must try that one. Would love to see you at WW this week to keep those Christmas cards going. I am hosting with my first ever sketch. I posted a lo yesterday and would really value your honest opinion as yours are so good. Have a great weekend. Marianne x
What a cute Santa! Love it Debby.
Your cross stitch is beautiful, I used to do cross stitch (before I had children!) and I know just how long they take, but the end result is so worth it.
Love Elaine xx
You're one Christmascard ahead of me Debby ;). I think this Santa is very cute!

Hi Debby, Gorgeous card! Love the cute Santa image and gorgeous BG papers. Also your X stitch is lovely - so sweet! I used to do a lot of X-stitching before I had the children but not so much now. I did, however, make my daughter a X-stitch Popcorn the Bear bookmark a few weeks ago and I had forgotten how addictive it is (I couldn't put it down lol!).

a fabulous Christmas card Debby, love the papers and cute santa!
hugs, annie x
So cool and unique!
