Ho, Ho, Ho...

I hope you're having a great week so far - it's a busy one here!

As I mentioned the other day,  I did get a start on some Christmas cards last weekend. (If I'm going to send out handmade cards this year, I have a lot more work to do!  But it's a start, right?)  I'm still making some holiday embellishments and formulating ideas, so you'll see more Christmas cards popping up here on the blog for a while.  And even though I promise myself every year that all my cards will be ready to send by Thanksgiving, it never happens that way.  Now it's become more of a game to see how close to that self-imposed deadline I can get. LOL
