Finally, Some Crafts!

It appears that my crafty blog has turned into a food blog (which is ok!), so I wanted to quickly get the Christmas cards posted, that sadly I am still creating. Without further ado....
















Some I like more than others, some I don't even want to give away because I like them so much! The colors in some of them are brighter and most of them look better in person.

For Mason's teacher I decided to recycle a box and I am going to fill it with her favorite chocolate from a local store here. I recycled my Tofurky box:



into this:





This is not new to me, but I find that creating/crafting is so therapeutic and it has helped me get my mind off some of the stress that we have been going through as well as how stressful this season is. I was out shopping today and it seems that everyone else was, too! Through the long lines at the stores and the very long traffic lights, I decided to just smile today and not get agitated. What's the point in that, right?

Have a nice {snowy} weekend!

PS. For some reason spell check isn't working and I am NOT a good speller, so just laugh to yourself if I spell a word wrong & I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's back to working by my next post!!

The cards are awesome! Will I be getting one? :)
Bet that store is Mid's. Ask Mason about how we were doing the Twist there last time I visited. He was a good sport.
Have a very wonderful, blessed, Merry Christmas and a New Year full of good things.

very awesome cards! I love all the little birdies and the "traditional" christmas looking paper-goodness. :) Merry Christmas!
