The first six

I told you the other day that I'm working on making my Christmas cards for this year. I have six done so far. These are a pretty simple card, nothing overly fancy. They are all the same with one small exception. The words Merry Christmas was stamped in green on half of the cards and red on the other half.

I have enough of the patterned paper to do six more just like these. Then I may do some additional ones that require a little more effort, maybe a pop up type card.

  2. I noticed that the tins of sweet were stacked up in the supermarket the other day, I am not a fan of Christmas and it really annoys me. I know, I'm a grumpy old woman, lol

    1. I hate how the stores rush the holidays. By the time Christmas is here I'm sick of seeing it. They're completely taken away from the true meaning.

  10. They are awesome! Do you have anything printed on the inside or do you hand write something.
