Christmas is coming…
the goose is on the run.
Make a few Christmas cards…
for some crafty fun.
If there’s no time for that…
store bought ones will do.
If you don’t send Christmas cards…
then God bless you.
I’m not sure which is worse, no cards, or e-cards. I delight in receiving beautiful Christmas cards and displaying them among my decorations. Yes, folks, sending a Christmas card is sending your recipient a little ephemeral decoration. Sweet.
Here’s an example of a super easy handmade card. A blank card/envelope, a tall skinny triangle cut from Christmas print card stock, the bottom half of a tiny triangle, a Sharpie marker and some double-sided tape are all that’s needed to make one. Better yet, enlist your kids to make a bunch of them(this way you can go bake in peace)! And, hey, last year’s Christmas cards are ideal card stock to work with.

So, please, please, please….. brush up on your “penmanship”, grab your coffee, tea or whatever, and get those cards signed, sealed and delivered!
Hi Linda, Great idea and I enjoyed the poem too.
Thank you, Laurie 🙂 I could visualize you making tree cards using the same approach you used for your pillow, only using cotton rag paper instead of canvas.
