Merry Christmas Wishes

Longwood Gardens conservatory Christmas tree and flowers

Merriest Christmas and happiest holiday wishes to you and yours! May your heart be filled with Jesus' love, joy and peace! We enjoyed a little trip to Longwood Gardens, PA this month and, as usual, were amazed with their creative displays and beautiful flowers and holiday trees.

Watercolor Christmas tree by me

I've been dabbling in a bit of art and hope you will consider the Merry Merry tree above my holiday card to you! I've been simplifying my life and sending out fewer cards by mail but I like that almost everyone has access to my blog.

My art inspired by a Pinterest post

I think I used colored pencil for the image above and the reference photo was in Pinterest. I probably saved it to my "Christmas" board, which you can find here.

Watercolor by me, inspired by a YouTube video

This was a fun experiment. I wish I'd saved the reference video. If you're the artist, please post your link in the comments below or email me privately and I'll edit this post to include your link. The same video inspired the next watercolor painting too.

"Merry" was clearly my theme for this Christmas. Loving Jesus definitely makes me more merry and joyful. May God bless you and all you do, this Christmas and always!
