Christmas Stamp-A-Stack

Today was my Christmas Stamp-A-Stack (SAS).  Thankfully the weather cooperated and it only drizzled outside (no snow or sleet).  We made three fun filled cards times four for a total of twelve ready to mail Christmas cards.  My darling daughter baked chocolate peppermint and pumpkin spice cookies for snacks.
