a colorful christmas

Since it was such a warm December this year we made our way to downtown Rochester for a little photo shoot in front of their stunning Big Bright Light Show for our fun Christmas card.  This year has been bright, busy and colorful so this backdrop was the perfect scene to share a little joy with you.

Here’s how the card came together…
We created these cozy letters using foam core, yarn and some hot glue.  These large letters would also look great on a mantel or in my case next year’s holiday window at catching fireflies.

Originally we wanted to get have Lolo hold the O on her own but it quickly became a game of throwing the O.

Of course we could’t leave Gus out of the fun.  He didn’t make the card but greeted everyone with his stoic silliness on our return address label.  This old man still knows how to party and will sit still as a statue for a treat.
 
Wishing a you a most merry Christmas and bright and colorful 2016!
