So, today, I was able to work on cards for other occasions. This first is a birthday card for a brother-in-law - love this Kaisercraft paper!
These few were made for The World Needs More Love Letters - I've made all 12 for the 12 Days of Letter Writing - and I loved it! Even if you don't join in the site's letter writing, isn't there someone you know who could use a love letter? a letter of support, care, encouragement? Go ahead - take a few minutes, pen a card, a letter, a note ... mail it to who you're thinking of - or, write a generic "hey, I'm thinking of you!" note & leave it somewhere - on the bus, a shelf at the store. Be creative & make someone's day! (Thank you!!!)
Love how easily 7 Gypsies, My Minds' Eye - ok, most every 6x6 paper pad! - works into cards!
Oh, yeah ... this isn't a card. Surprise! (lol) The finches finally decided to feed - and, boy, did they! What a wonderful thing to see, first thing in the morning!
Now, how is it one week 'til Christmas? ONE??? Yep, there are things I didn't get done I'd hoped to, gifts that will be created or finished as after-Christmas gifts - but, I've had fun making all of our cards, doing some crocheting & knitting, tasting my daughter's wonderful baking (hey, I can't do it all! lol), decorating the house. What's done, is. What isn't ... yep, there's always next year.
Great attitude! I've been very "what's done is done" this year, too!
