Oh Holy Night

Hi Everyone!  A very joyous and happy Christmas Eve day to you all!  I have the day off, the sun is shining and I'm getting ready to wrap a few presents I have bought for the family.  Tonight we will all be together celebrating the birth of our Lord.  Our family tradition has always been to spend Christmas Eve together, laughing, eating and opening presents.  The holidays are quite bittersweet with the loss of both my sister and my father.  But that doesn't mean we don't celebrate the holidays.  Christmas is about the birth of Christ which ultimately leads to his death, and only through his death and sacrifice am I given the ultimate gift of eternal life, where I will be reunited once again with my sister and my dad.  This is a joyous occasion and reason to celebrate for sure.

My mani today is nothing new.  It has been circulating around the blog world for a year now thanks to the awesome creativity of Julia from Messy Mansion.

My base is a coat of Essence Jacob's Protection with one coat of China Glaze fairy dust.  I sponged on some China Glaze Passion and then stamped with MM01.

Here's thumbie!

I wish all of you who celebrate Christmas a joyous and happy Christmas Eve.
