A Family New Year's Card

Here's a little Card with Kitchen Sink Stamps. Something simple and pretty...

To be quite honest, you would not be able to mail these in the lined envelope I created; with the ribbon and all... but just in case you are among the .25% of people that have their New Years Cards hand delivered by courier... here is the fancy envelope.

The Envelopes are from Paper Source... they are lovely... 4 1/8" x 9 1/2" and made of a shimmery paper. Referred to on the PS website as a #10 Open End Envelope in Stardream Quartz. They would make wonderful wedding card envelopes... or envelopes for hand delivered cards. Of course you could mail them... without the ribbon.

I wish I could tell you who made this paper... to be honest I have no idea. But it's a sky blue and charcoal tone. The card base is Sky Blue. The ink is Adirondack Black. The ribbon is by Basic Grey. The stamp sets are Playful Numbers and Never a Loss for Words. Don't you live the "blah, blah blah" sentiment on top? I think at a glance it just looks like a pretty scroll pattern.

I also want to add that the photograph is in black and white, not blue and white. In person it looks great... I guess it's just one of those things that doesn't photograph well.

Brrr!!!

Ok... actual CLUMPS of snow fell today! I think we got about 6 inches... and it's the good stuff; just right for sledding... so that's exactly what we are going to do today!

So if you never hear from me again; that's how I died.... sledding.

The snow is very inspirational... here are a couple winter cards for you... all stamps are from Kitchen Sink Stamps.

So has anyone recovered from the holidays yet? I think I will be fully recovered after January 2nd. Heck, I still have leftover prime rib to consume... and as far as I am concerned you aren't done with the holidays until all the food has been eaten or has spoiled.
