I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 20 years and will have my 19th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends.

    Well, since I'm probably the only one home sick tonight, I guess it doesn't surprise me that I'm the first to comment.  My favorite song is "Silent Night, Holy Night"!  It was the song my mom and I used to sing every year in church.  She's no longer here with me, but I still feel her in my heart!

  6. terriavidreader says

    December 24, 2010 at 9:12 pm

    Ohhh I love so many, but Frosty the Snowman has to be my favorite.  Especially now that we have little ones in the family again. They are so excited about the smallest thing, a snow flake, the lights, the Christmas tree, the nativity scene…  just amazing to see Christmas through their eyes.  But the possibility of a snowman that comes to life… they are in awe!

  8. Evelyn says

    December 24, 2010 at 9:21 pm

     I love your card….the real reason for the season.  Thanks for sharing.  My favorite carol is Silent Night.

  9. Christine Maupin says

    Connie, your card is stunning.  Simple yet elegant!  My favorite holiday song this year is "I'll Be Home for Christmas".  Being a military family overseas (for the past five years), it's definitely close to my heart!

    Love the simplicity and the layers of the card Connie.   This set reminds me of images I remember from the 70's.   Favorite Christmas song is tough since its my favorite genre of music.  Tonight I've been looking at some YouTube videos of one of my favs from years ago.  Evie Tornquist sings several that qualify.  O holy night, and Mary's Boychild being two of my favs of hers.  Mary Did you Know is another one I love.     Of course favorite Christmas shower song is Angels we have heard on high….love how the glorias ring off the tile in the shower – LOL!
    May your Christmas be blessed and your New Years filled with joy.

  17. Donna says

    December 24, 2010 at 10:24 pm

  24. Marge Waskiewicz says

    December 24, 2010 at 11:02 pm

    Tonight our Christmas gathering with family was something we do every year,. We sang many Christmas Carols after opening our gifts. My personal favorite is "O' come all ye faithful".  I love Silent Night and many others.

  27. Mendy says

    December 24, 2010 at 11:32 pm

    My favorite is I'll Be Sending You a Little Christmas.  My son has been gone serving in the US Navy in Japan and was even in boot camp for Christmas.  He is currently serving in Afghanistan right now and I always send him this song.  I think of him whenever I hear it since I miss him so all the time  but especially at Christmas.  : )

    My favorite song is I Heard the Bells On Christmas Day. I really like the version done by Casting Crowns. My husband got curious about the lyrics and did a little internet research. The lyrics are based on writings by Longfellow following the death of his wife and the injury of his son during the Civil War. I think the message is amazing!  Check out the awesome You tube video.

  30. Billie A says

    December 25, 2010 at 12:34 am

    Very pretty card I like the colors also.
    I really like Silent Night it brings back memories of singing in the choir at church when I was growing up. I couldnt get through the song with out crying.
    Merry Christmas to you and your family.

    Connie- love this card reflecting the true reason for the season!  I truly love all Christmas Carols and have the luxury of listening to the instrumental versions at work but whenever I hear "Hark, The Herald Angels Sing" I recall the Christmas when our twin nieces who were just over 3 years old, sang this song in it's entirety on command!  It was so cute and a very precious moment in time:-)  I hope you and your family had a lovely Christmas and have a safe and Happy New Year!

  150. Terry Schultz says

    December 27, 2010 at 3:35 pm

    One of my favorite song is Someday at Christmas.  I would like to see peace all over the world, and everybody getting along, and not see harshness or cruelness to people or animals. Christmas is a happy time and wish this for others. You are very creative and inspiring. Thanks for sharing your work.

    I love your card – thanks for sharing your talent with us. 
    I would have to say that my favorite Christmas song is "Silent Night"!
    Happy New Year!!

    I was half way through leaving you a comment the other day when we lost the power!  I just want to wish you a very merry Christmas, and health and happiness in the new year.  I have really enjoyed getting to know you and cant wait to see you in a few weeks.  (((hugs)))
