Every year I make our Christmas cards. It is something that I look forward to all year. They are not always perfect but I am typically proud of them and it is something that I enjoy doing. Well this year I had a plan I worked it all out bought the paper (which is another story all together) and started on the cards. I made one and went to put it in the envelope and it didn't fit. Too fat. SO I started again...I have searched on-line for inspiration, I have looked at magazines, I have called friends but I am getting no where FAST. I have made at least 20 different cards and I have hated them all. I think that it is the papers fault. Usually I am very traditional, I buy red, green white with maybe another color thrown in but there is no doubt that it is Christmas. Well this year while searching for paper I pick up a line that is using non traditional designs and colors. And they are BUSY, which is not something I typically do either. The colors are shades that I can't even find ribbon that looks nice...I love ribbon....so I had to buy embroidery floss...it just isn't the same... So here I am sitting on a load of paper which I really don't like wishing for some nice red card stock some pretty ribbon and some red and white paper.....
BTW what has happened to spell check...a girl can't live without spell check......

SWEET! One of my favorite FanFic people is also a scrapbooker! I totally understand about the Christmas cards. I got mine made, but now it's too late to send them out. I guess that means they're done for 2007 :) Later Babe! :P
