Can I keep up with the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenges this year??? Realistically, no. Watching our granddaughter two days a week and another granddaughter due in February that I'll eventually watch one day a week...time and energy will be limited. But what a blessing it is to have these babies in our life! 

Happy Stamping, my friends!
