Make your own Christmas Cards, it's fun and easy!

  Every moment in the studio is a pleasure and brings my spirit back into alignment with my body, just like good exercise.
 So; Why should Christmas cards be a store bought hustle to get them in the mail?
An article, about Love and Logic Parenting (it does work, if you use it, I would give it to every parent I see having issues with their kids, if I could), hit my inbox yesterday; It said that it is okay to spend money and time and energy hunting those perfect gifts, but what is most important is spending time, good eye-to-eye time, with your kids and loved ones.
  I believe that the cards you send should really mean something to you, and I implore you to add more than just your signature to the inside. You really enjoy staying in touch with that person, so go ahead- write a little something, even if it's a quick "I would really love a visit, soon." or "It is a blessing to have you in my life."
To make your own cards;
Gather up some card stock and cut it in half, lengthwise (if your printer can print that size, or just make 2 cards on 1 sheet).
They sell envelopes at most any store, but you can make your own with a simple fold or two, out of regular printer paper.
Getcha some decorative rubber or clear stamps, maybe a bit of glitter and/or peel off- metallic stickers.
*Type and print up a personalized message for the inside of the card first.
*Smack that ink pad with the stamp and plop it on the card.
*Add your embellishments, maybe add your own handwritten sentiment, and away you go.
Fun, eh? I'll get you pics of my Christmas cards, but not until they've had a chance to reach their destinations (wouldn't want to ruin the gift of the card opening).
Merry Christmas, Friends.
