Dare I say, Christmas cards?

OK, just so everybody knows, I feel very strongly about waiting until after Thanksgiving before talking about Christmas. However, in the crafting world there are reasons to be getting in the holiday spirit early. I'll never get my projects done in time if I don't! Here are my first 2 Christmas card attempts of the season - made at 10:00 pm last Saturday night so that I could have them ready as samples at church the next day. Once again, I must sing praises to my Cuttlebug. I am having so much fun with it!

Craft 'till you Crash!

I am trying to get November's layout and Craft 'till you Crash items done this week, so here's the first installments! And just so you know - I'm not so presumptuous as to think that my designs are oh-so-wonderful. It's just that nobody else is willing to step up and help yet!

For those who haven't seen them before, those are plain old ceramic tiles in the easels, stamped with a special kind of ink called Staz-On. After the ink is dry you seal it with Crystal Effects (or you could probably just use clear nail polish) and voila! You can use the tile as a dry erase board! I think it's a fun, inexpensive gift idea - and as you can see, you can have one for every season!
