Happy World Card Making Day

Yay!! Today is 'World Card Making Day!!"

It has been a busy week! Whew! I thought I would've had time to make some cards this week, but every time I walk into my craft room, I just look around and sigh. It is such a pit at the moment. It is completely unorganized after the Christmas Card workshop last Monday, Friday crop and 2 home gatherings last week! I just haven't had time to get everything sorted out and put back in its home. I hope to do that at some point this weekend.

Maybe tonight I can sit down and clean for an hour and then make stuff for a few hours after that. I am baking up some cinnamon rolls for a brunch/meeting with area art teachers...then I have a photo shoot this afternoon with a friend. I have lots of crafty ideas and I need to get them done before October totally hits me with craziness.

I thought it would be fun to post some pictures of the Christmas Card sets I made for my Etsy shop. I made these way back in July, but I wanted to wait until a little closer to Christmas before putting them in the shop.

Set #1
Set of 6 standard-sized Christmas cards with envelopes. The cards are hand-stamped and embossed.
The envelopes have matching stamping and the paper on the front of the card is embossed with some glitter. Only 6$





Set # 2
Set of 6 standard-sized Christmas cards with envelopes. The cards are hand-stamped and embossed. The gorgeous snowflake stamp is Close to My Heart.

The envelopes have matching stamping and the inside of the card says 'Merry Christmas.'





Set #3
Set of 6 standard-sized Christmas cards with envelopes. The cards are hand-stamped and embossed. The gorgeous heat-embosed snowflake stamp motif is Close to My Heart. The green embossed paper is Martha Stewart.

The envelopes have matching stamping and the inside of the card says 'Merry Christmas.'








Each set comes with matching envelopes and features hand embossing, an interior greeting and free envelope seals!
