Still wrapping?

...or, dare I ask...still shopping?

Join the club.

Not only am I still wrapping, (Who are we kidding here? I haven't started.) but I haven't yet addressed our Christmas cards. (The "holiday season" teachnically runs through January first, right?)

When I had the idea for the grand baby Christmas shoot, I hadn't thought about Christmas cards. In fact, truth be told, I haven't mailed out Christmas cards in a decade.

At least.

Oh, I've wanted to. I've bought cards, thought about making cards...and then run out of time.

Or steam.

Or whatever it takes to get-er-done.

Anyway,

The pictures were all just so adorable that I got the idea to use one of the mischevious boys and the sweetie-pie little princess shots as our card this year.

Yeah, that was prety much it. It was an idea.

Finally, last week I rallied myself into a card designing frenzy of sorts and decided to make them.
After three rounds of printing, I finally got the inside of the cards printed on the correct side of the paper (aaaurgh!) and right side up...voila'!
This year's Christmas miracle will be friends and family receiving a real honest-to-gosh Christmas card from me.

These are precious! That's okay to be late. Didn't the Wise Men get there 12 days after? Lol. Merry Christmas to a merry inspiration all year!

Once they see those cards, the recipients will see that they are worth the wait! So precious.

I'm so glad you made those into cards. I love them. They make me smile every time I look at the Christmas and Thanksgiving pictures of your grands. In fact, I've shared your blog with friends so they could see the pictures (of course, I love all your ideas and love to read what you are up to!).

So cute. The cards will be special. Do you know the source of the quote on your Dec. 9 blog entry?

Adorable! Too perfect! Aren't you glad you did it? I did cards this year too after many years of not doing it. Its a sure-fire way to feel the Christmas spirit!
