Merry Christmas (cards)









I don't send too many home made cards for Christmas, just to the immediate family. I don't think most folks appreciate or understand the effort required to make a card so they get the store bought ones. Even though these cards were from a kit my family understands the time it takes and like getting them.

These were from Hot off the Press card kits. I've mentioned this many times but they make very nice kits. I supplied the envelopes and card base (solid paper) and adhesive. The Dazzles have an "outey" and an "innie" and frugal folks can often get twice the number if you plan accordingly.
 

Until my next post (which will be next year),

100 Acre Wood Gang...and me!





Last year hubby and I went to Disney World during the holiday season. We went to Mickey's Christmas party and he got a photo of me with my bestest buddy Tigger along with Winnie-the-Pooh, Piglet and Eeyore.  A blog post from October Afternoon, a paper craft company, got me thinking I could do this technique with a photo of my own. I googled Photoshop and Polaroid and found this one that worked well for me.

Until my next post,

Happy Birthday card




Here's a card I made from the Hot off the Press Lemonade Stand artful card kit. I'm sending it for a birthday. I've mentioned this before but these are nice kits and if you are frugal you can get quite a lot of cards from these kits.

Until my next post,
