How's eveyone doing? Have you all finished your Xmas cards?
I am only managing about 5-8 a day!!! Sod's law, I've had a few birth congrats orders!
At this rate, I'll be trying to sell off the ones I've made and buying the 100 or so I need to send out.
I am not going to be like this next year, will have a new years resolution to be more organised!!!

Been shopping today! Desperately need more card to make up my blanks. Completely run out of dark blue for a midnighty sky,I love making up the snowmen with their liitle felt scarves & hats.
Have also been making little penguins and had run out of black too!
Anyway, went down to The Paper Mill, don't do much else there but filled my box (well-overfilled my box) to the brim with my card and then I spotted \link{http://www.diestodiefor.com/Accucrease.php\this}
Just couldn't resist it!! Tried it and I am so pleased with it. Really simply but has saved me so much time,I have folded about 100 cards with ease.
In fact it's so easy, I might even ask DH to fold some while I get on with my xmas cards this evening! Hopefully even the "artistically challenged" as he calls himself could manage!

Made all mine ages ago (ner ner ner ), and sent them out on December 1st. I was quite pleased with them, but have had better ideas since making them, which no doubt I will forget about next year!

Took the 40 or so I had made to MIL yesterday, sold 9, she took another 6 to show to the girls at work! Back to a very empty looking stock box!!
Only completed another 5 tonight but made loads of little embellishments and stamped/coloured in some little snowmen! I have also made up a huge stack (well over 100 anyway) of neatly folded card blanks,all nicely stored with matching envelopes and poly bag,sitting in a box just waiting to be used!! I am very impressed with my Accucrease thingy, AQ,yes-it is really quick!!
My conservatory looks like a bomb has hit it! DH has put the tree up this afternoon, it is standing there in a bare state, with just a few twinking lights, waiting to be decorated tomorrow, the masses of boxes of baubles are mingling together with my craft boxes.
Ah well,,tomorrow is another day!
