Waaaaahhh!!!

That beautiful blue spruce just had its leader on top pruned off! The tree is not directly under the power lines, but it close enough and has gotten tall enough that it needed to be done. We asked the tree guys to be KIND, GENTLE and THOUGHTFUL!!! They were . . and I'm thankful! I watched them from the kitchen window and while it was necessary and they were gentle I still cried!!!

I asked them for what they cut off which is about 2 foot tall . . I'm going to decorate it and have a little tree on my deck while there is still some life in it! When I get that done I'll post a picture of it. 'Twill make a nice little tree!

Hopeful . .

Thank you so much for the December mail art. I love the scarf with all of the frilly edges. What a great assortment of tea. The Wreath is too cool. I can think of all sorts of things to hang from it. Love the cookies. They are so good. Is there a way for you to email me the recipe?
Thank you again so much.

Hey Moonshines, some are family, some are folks we didn't recognize, we digitalized the photos so making them into cards was the best end I could see for the actual photos. I am glad you like them and will use them. I went a little crazy and made a lot, didn't mean to run up your stamp bill! LOL Merry Christmas and happy new year!

Happy Trails!

Thank You Staci....I loved my Santa Ornament (Mail-Art)!!!



Isn't he adorable!!! Sorry, you have to kink your neck. He isn't sideways on the regular picture only when I posted it on the Forum.



I really like this Life Beautiful Magazine too. I have read several
back issues of it before. I am already enjoying this one you sent.
What a blessing this issue is!

Also, thank you for your kind comments about my Mail-Art to you, my handwriting and my envelopes. You are a Sweetheart!

I pray that you and yours have a Blessed and Joyful Christmas!

Hugs and smiles,
Peggy

Remember me telling you that the leader was pruned off the top of the BIG, BEAUTIFUL Blue Spruce tree?

Here is the top that was pruned off, made into a little primitive country tree. The cut end was just perfect to fit in the hole on our metal patio table. I put lights and a big plaid bow on it. Can enjoy the rest of the tree for the holidays a little bit longer.

I can tell the leader is gone, but it's a minimal thing and most people won't notice.

Thanks for letting me share!
CJ

CJ...I love your little primitive Country Tree. It is so precious! But not more so than your Heart...I love how
you cheerish and adore the Beauty of God's Creation all around you. Your heart did what God's Heart does...you took
the bad and turned it into Good and made it beautiful for all to see and enjoy.

Thank You for Blessing Us With YOUR big Heart and Tiny Tree! Both are soooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL!

bless you dear heart,
peggy

My Mail-Art Card that I made for Staci Wickard (she has already received it).



And this is the inside. Seems simplistic compared to what she made for me...but I
still enjoyed making it for her.

Merry Christmas Mail-Artists!
