Holiday Photo Card Pics


I've been really bad at posting this month. I had more ideas floating in my head for my blogsite then I actually had time for. And of course I have no posts to show for any of them. *sigh*

So, now I'm playing a little bit of catch up. From my previous post you got a little glimpse of my families holiday cards this year. I was extremely proud of them because, I actually took the photos myself. I usually have one of my super talented friends who are photographers take them but, of course...down to the last minute I needed to provide some sort of photos.

I'm such an amateur and have a lot to learn about photography but, I'm patting myself on the back. And hey, I actually have a few of these photos hanging up to boot!

Holiday Cards

Yes, I'm alive! Sorry for such a long break away from here. This lady has been pretty busy the last 2 weeks. Things are slowing down a bit and I'm starting to get other holiday preparations out of the way. Baking, shopping, wrapping and addressing those holiday cards.

Although, having cards printed through us may no longer be an option there is still time to get out a last minute digital holiday card from the shop.

I hope you are enjoying the Holiday Season so far. Stay warm!

Tree Garland

Yesterday I took a break from working on card orders and put together a few wintery green arrangements for our outdoor planters. It was such a relaxing treat that I know I need to do more of those type of breaks during this crazy busy time.

How lovely is this tree garland? This is on my to do list for a few more breaks before we get the tree early next week. I don't think I've ever seen the wooden straws but, they really are perfect for this. Head on over to Elsie Marley's blog to get the full tutorial.
