WOYWW 760- Need a little Christmas now


A lovely time was had by all, all the wrapping is tossed or tidied, new toys as well.
On my own, now I feel like making Christmas cards!
It would be a first, and I guess they can be for next year!
All  good wishes and more for my dear desker friends in the new year.
Let there be light!
and as I frequently say,
This is what peace looks like.

See y'all in the new year.

WOYWW 759-Going Postal- Christmas Card Addition

A few days ago...
front

back

Today
Let the addressing marathon begin!
I listen to Jingle Jam
24/7 Christmas, no chatter from Bing Crosby to Grandma got run over by a reindeer.SFW

 
A few cards went in the mail early as swaps and packages I wanted to arrive before christmas.

More on this here
One of my favs.


You can see the Peace theme.
Many of the sentiments by Suzanne Cannon.
May all my Dear Desker Friends have a joyous (as possible) season of Light.
May you be happy
May you be peaceful
May you be safe and protected from all harm
May you be well in body mind and spirit.
and
By the merit of all we do on line and IRL
May all beings everywhere be free!

WOYWW- 754-If you cant make a mess...


...you cant make anything.
Above shows I must be on my way to a lot of something, as clearly there is plenty of mess!
Poinsettias are the theme this year, and peace.....
I was having card anxiety, when I realized, no one is waiting for my cards, and I can stop calling them Christmas cards and think more along the line of holiday cards or even New Years cards to take off the pressure.
Yes, I am having fun yet, and I hope you are too!
If I don't leave you a comment it's because google doesn't want me too!
I don't buy much, and I caved and bought myself one of those new glue press things in the middle right.
i do like it so far, and I think you could accomplish the same not having to cap the glue function, by putting a small piece of silicone mat in the bottom of a jar that would hold your glue bottle, with the tiny tip pushing into the silicone.
Thanks for visiting, commenting and questions are always welcomed.

WOYWW 705- Making Multiples

Clearly Christmas is here and ready to mail!
Love making, sending, and seeing them in folks homes!
The multiple issue- its not so much that its boring or time consuming, its that
the last one looks so much better than the first, I want to toss that one!
Posting individual shots for my own amusement!
Message me if you want details. 
I'm impressed i'm getting this posted!
Ho Ho Ho one and all.
I'll be traveling this year to visit the grands, so might not be digitally loyal!












The multiple!





Birthday card for SIL Tracy- born on Dec 26! a gift to us all!

WOYWW 598- More than one...Restraint

I used to do a lot of swaps and mingles, and every time I would go through the same cycle of forgetting and them remembering how much I don't enjoy making  multiples.
i've made more cards than ever, and each one is different, and I fell in love with this sentiment so ...
I'm enjoying the restraint of the postcard- can't go overboard with layers and embellishments .
You can see that
and


Here in the states we are looking to a pandemic Thanksgiving- not knowing if I will be able to be with my children or not, holding back (more restraint) on preparation incase not.
Thankful for being together will all of you each Wednesday!
