Christmas Card swap - card-making time!

This has been a very educational experience.
Personally, sequins drive me a little crazy.
I am planning to use mass quantities of the ones I currently own in shaker cards and then never buy another as long as I live.

I apologize to all and thank you all so much for your good advice and for being a sport about it.

Yeah, I agree about sequins, I could live without them. I like the rhinestone type bling better. But I really did like that wreath that Kristina Werner did and might have try one if I can find enough sequins the same color to do a whole row the same.

That wreath is very cool but wow...talk about driving one crazy! Not enough patience here to do that one. I agree with Jen...shaker cards. I also have a lifetime supply of tiny beads that these eyes no longer want to fool with...another good shaker card item.

I finally got my cards in the mail. Just the ones to you. The rest of my cards still need to be addressed. But we went to the annual parade today and I must clean the house tomorrow. So cards will wait. LOL

Forgot to also add that I put the cards in the envelopes inside out so the fronts don't get messed up. :-)

I love that the cards are all so different! I have mine in a little sleigh in the wood stove. At least while we're having spring weather! Every so often I sort through them, admiring them.

Mine are displayed on a metal Christmas tree shape. Difficult to photo but I will try.

I didn't get anything yesterday except for about 30 pieces of mail that belongs to 4 other people living on our road. The worst part? The mail person drove up and handed all of it to Adam and then drove off. Makes me wonder what I'm not getting.

Which leads me to - if anyone has NOT received a card from me, please post it here so I can get another one made and mailed. In light of what the mail lady did yesterday, there's no telling where people's mail ends up.

And yes, I'm logging a complaint with the PO.
