Happy New Year 2011

Yaaahoooo!!  It is 2011!  Wow, it is hard to believe that 2010 is finished and we now move in to a fresh new year.  I love the new year.  It feels like a clean slate where you can do anything you want.  I have been thinking of some New Year resolutions (other than my crafting ones which I posted yesterday) and will finalize them today as we take down our Christmas decorations and spend a fun family day together playing games, reading, and generally taking it easy! 

I got up early this morning (6:30 - waaaaay before the boys woke up) so that I could enjoy the Christmas lights in our living room one last time.  It is really one of my favorite things about the holiday season.  It is just so warm and cozy in my big chair with a big blanket over me, enjoying the twinkle of the lights.  I had been browsing a few blogs and remembered that I had downloaded this free New Years image last year (from Mo's Blog).  So I visited my craft room (first card I've made in about 4 or 5 weeks) and whipped up this little card.  He is colored in with Copics and I added a bit of sparkle with my Sukara gel pen. 

Happy New year to all of you who visit me here at my blog.  I look forward to all that the crafty New Year brings, including sharing the joy of creating with all of you!
