If you use a FBD image and add FBD to your name, you 

will be in an EXTRA drawing for something special :D 

The others will be chosen by random to win 3 digis of choice. 

how many winners will there be?

we,, I chose the most important word in Christmas and chose our number that way

CHRIST. He is the ultimate gift and I do not want to do anything to take away from that. This holiday is about Him, every day should be about him and  how he came and lived a holy life, taught others, healed, helped, died and did it all just because he loves us so much. I don't know about you, but that type of love is so unexplainable. It makes me feel wonderful, but gives me chills all at the same time. 

So ... that being said, there will be 6 winners this month :)

Our beautiful DT has created several cards to share with you today, many using our 12 Sentimental Days of Christmas image #3. If you are asking what this is... I will tell you really quickly. We are hosting an extended Mocha Manic Monday this month. We are giving a sentiment and an occasional digi over the next 12 (well now 9) days. Stop by the shop for yours!
