After Monday's fiasco of an evening commute...you can bet that I stayed home yesterday....crossing my fingers that things get better with the weather although if you'd ask my kids, they are totally digging the snow...hey, it's cool with me so long as I don't have to drive in the stuff...
Okay, okay...let's get to some craftiness....
I have soo many Christmas paper collections....I've been slinging out the Cosmo Goodness on a regular basis that my other sets are feeling a smidge neglected...
So here comes some Making Memories Noel goodness:
I know you all know that I ADORE mixing and matching collections....I assure you that I don't dress this way... Although when the kidlets were younger, I use to LOVE to dress them in funky clothing..and the girl, the girl always had a hat and tights on...oh-those-were-the-days....
Why do I insist on making bumpy cards? The USPS loves me...I bet the average cost of postage for each of my Christmas Cards is going to be $1.22....typing about the USPS...is it just me or does the person in line behind you always forget about the concept of personal space and bathing too? This is probably why I always procrastinate going to the post office...grrrr...
Dontcha love that silvery glittery sprig?
I was inspired by the Card Patterns sketch...and my fabbie friend Sparks is the sponsor this week...
Next up is my yup, Cosmo Cricket November Mitten Weather Project-a-Day card....
You all gotta know how I like making scenery cards...pssttt....I made a boo boo...the glorious thing about crafting is there is typically a fix for everything...especially when you have almost totally finished the card....at least all the stitching...check out all the stitching on this puppy and then I stamped the greeting crooked.....grrrrrr....hence the banner:)
The pink and green papers are Dear Lizzie...the red is Cosmo Cricket and the cardstock is Stampin' up Chocolate chip.
It seems like I took a break from color challenges but just recently started back playing with them...love the current Embellish Challenge...
I might just take Thanksgiving off from my blog...we'll see:)
As always...thanks for stoppin' by....

fab cards girl and you are too funny about the PO!!
have a wonderful turkey day and drive safe if you need to go out :)
Hugs,

They are both so pretty!
I adore the paper the first card and of cours both are just adorable...I so feel your pain about bumpy cards! I just mailed one yesterday that had to go in a plastic box. FYI - $1.39 no matter the box size.
love the MM card... those colors are fabulous, and that sprig is totally super with the glitter :D
Happy Thanksgiving!
I agree about the personal space, especially in the supermarket - either the person behind you is ramming you with their cart or so close they can see me enter the pin number for my atm card. Drives me nuts!!
hope you and yours have a happy thanksgiving!
*hugs* steph :)
love that paper on your 1st card.
at our post office, we take a # so there's no standing in line. you should put that in their suggestion box at your local post office =)
