Magical Christmas Wishes
Happy Saturday!!! It's so freaking hot and I stupidly decided to do some cleaning today (I know, I'm insane) and I discovered a bag of scraps of wrapping paper from last Christmas and that has led me here. I got this paper with Santa riding a unicorn for my nieces. Isn't it cool? I knew it would make a fabulous card and it did.

I am, as you probably know, a HUGE Disney fan. To me, Disney and fireworks are synonymous. I got this die on Etsy a few years ago, and I absolutely love how the patterned paper poops behind the white glittered die cut. The yellow-gold windows in the castle remind me of how Walt's office is always lit up at the theme parks.
