C'mon, Hop On the Christmas Card Carousel!

Sweet girl Faith is hosting a Christmas card carousel and I'm jumping at the chance to show off my puuurrrrrddddyyyy Christmas card, designed in whole by Heather of Sprouts by Heather. She's just the greatest! Take a look:
Now, I know it doesn't match my current bloggy color scheme, but isn't it unique? We wore brown & pink for our session with her last month and she figured out a way to make it look festive and Christmas-y. And guess what I love as much as the front of this card? The back!!!



The back of it is almost like a postcard and you write messages on it. Isn't that neat?? If I would've had my head on straight, I would've written you a little message on the back before I scanned it. But since it's taken me almost 45 minutes to get this far, if I tried to do it again the girls might not get picked up from preschool 'cause mama was bloggin'. Anyhow, I can't take any credit for how great this turned out (except for the cute kiddos, which me, John, and the Lord worked together on.......well, actually it was ALL God!) but I'm gonna have to say this is my favorite of all of our Christmas cards.

Merry Christmas from our house to yours! I pray that you are happy & blessed as you celebrate the birth of the Savior! He's the Reason!
