Lighten up

Miss Rach is starting a Slime Green Challenge this Saturday (anything green, character or background). For this card I used a previous Christmas Light Mouse and had my light be green as well as my background papers.  The sentiment is from a great set at TLC and is something that I wish I could openly say to A LOT of people around the holiday season, "Lighten up".  I get frustrated when we are celebrating the wonder of the greatest holiday and people will run you over at the stores or be rude because they are in a hurry because they have too many events.  I guess I'm just getting too old since I don't have to get my kids to Christmas oh I'm sorry HOLIDAY concerts and nutcracker rehearsals anymore as well as find time to shop and wrap.  Look for this week's freebie so you can enter the challenge or she now has a tab for previous freebies!
