Time to start Christmas Cards!


I know it is still before October... but for me, this is the perfect time to start Christmas Cards if I want to send handmade to everyone on my list! I want to be able to enjoy it and not feel as rushed as when there is snow on the ground.

I found this sketch on a blog called Always Playing with Paper which hosts a "Merry Monday" sketch challenge. Each Monday Lesley posts a new sketch and the challenge is to create a Christmas card with it! What could be a better motivation to get Holiday Cards made ahead of time?



This is my take on the sketch! What do you think?


I used the Stamp of the Month that comes out in October.

    Okay, seriously?! "I made 5 cards last night" does not tell me a thing about how beautiful they are! Love these! Great workshop card, too! Totally pinning.
