It’s getting to look a lot like Christmas

Getting to look a lot like Christmas 2013
I’m feeling so wonderful today and I have some fantastic new to share. Georgianne has feeling in her feet and she has moved her left toe. This is the best Christmas ever, things are still going to be slow but finally she has feeling. For the ones that do not know my sister in law had a large tumor removed from her brain in September and has not had any feeling from her neck down since. I love good new!!! So the Outlawz Twisted Thursday Challenge has started and for this week the twisted is ANYTHING GOES WITH ANYTHING GOES now how easy is that. The image I used from Stitchy Bear is called snow mail box. OMG I was just over at Stitchy Bear and looking for the link for the snow mail box and if you like scenery images there are some winter, spring, fall and summer  scenes that are breath taking.
Our Sponsor for the month of December is STITCHY BEAR
ALL OF OUR WONDERFUL IMAGES ARE FROM SITICHY BEAR

Copic markers used to color the image. Here is the close up of the image. I used what I call Styrofoam fluff. I take a Styrofoam block and rub it together and it brakes apart and it looks like snow. The Merry Christmas is a sticker.

Fabulous news about your sister. The best gift you could have received this year. I adore your card. It just looks like we are looking down the driveway to this house. That snow looks lovely. Your coloring/shadowing is superb. The other goodies you offered up are darling. Thanks for sharing those. Have yourself a great weekend.

omyword! is this ever gorgeous!

I seem to get "a threat has been detected" every time I come here, which is why my visits are few.
but know I watch what you're up to.

i'd like to wish you a truly blessed Christmas and a spectacular new year.

hugs :)

Firstly let me say how happy I am that your SIL has movement, no matter how tiny. It all has to start somewhere...gives a new meaning to the phrase "baby steps" now doesn't it?

Your card is absolutely gorgeous Patricia!!!

The digi is amazing and of course your personal touch simply brings it to life. I love whatever it is that you used as snow, wow is all I can say.

Thank you again for the opportunity to GD with you last week, I enjoyed it thoroughly. Much obliged, Sandra :)
