Occasionally...

 Occasionally I have an original idea for my paper fun.  At the VERY LAST MINUTE I signed up for artjoystuff's Oh Holy Night ATC swap.  Since I was mailing my 1 = 1 ATC to her, I thought, heck, I'll just make 3 more ATC's, in an a couple hours, and mail them all.  Ha.  HaHa.  HaHaHa.  While I often am influenced by steal another artist's product, these just came together from my own foggy head. 
As luck would have it, the crackle glass Stickles didn't dry in time for the mail, but later that night I wrapped up the package so it would be all ready to go today.  Yet...I could not stop that niggling tug at my brain that the ATC's just weren't good enough to exchange with people I don't know (Ha again).  What to do?  What to do!  Immediately upon awakening (well, maybe after a few sips of cafe'), I opened the package and removed the cards.  Up to the studio we went.  I was prepared to start over but also had an idea to just add a bit of fluff.  And fluffing was enough to satisfy me.  (fluffing consisted of adding the wee flowers and holly leaves)  
While I was thus engaged, and heck the horses were fed and hubby still in bed, why not finish the ballerina tag I started yesterday.  This is not really my original design.  I've seen a couple lovely tags using this delicious Graphic 45 paper so I had those in mind while this came together.  A little some'pn some'pn for Mom.
