Happy Jolly Day

 I figured since I'm going to be enjoying tropical type weather for Christmas, this card with this paper would be very fitting.  I used some scrap paper from the Deck The Palms paper pack from CTMH, I cut the gift inside the card and the flower to the upper right from one of the pieces as well.  I did use some fun pink glitter paper too!  This Mrs. Claus will be enjoying the nice beaches and the wonderful summery type sunshine via a Christmas Cruise.  I can't wait!!  By "This Mrs. Claus", here is what I mean...

 
This is me with the Santa I've been working with for the last...Well, over 15 years.
Picture taken last weekend after we got to bowl with some extra fun kiddos.
a video can be seen HERE if you want to see us in action (the helicopter Santa isn't MY Santa)

Okay, back to my card.  LOL  Here is the card I made:
