DONE!!

All it took was a bit of snow-- It's still covering the yard this morning.
I knew I shoulda made myself get those outside plant pots taken care of last weekend, dangit.......*sigh*

Hot chocolate happened (for himself--cuz my quota is two of those a year...LOL) and I pulled out 'the box'.
It's a clear box, chalked full of 'stuff' for card making.
Say 'bye bye' to the top of the breakfast table!

WE made holiday cards.
Himself with the stamper and ink, cuz I'm not a centered kinda person....LOL (Literally and figuratively--I'll confess!!)
And me with the 'pretties' that I placed and replaced and placed again on the stamped card MULTIPLE times before introducing them to the glue.

Yeah, I'm a bit........ummmm...choosey about that stuff. (he says 'anal'..LOL)

He, on the other hand, is convinced folks might look at 'em once or twice before they get shoved back into the envelope and tossed.

My response?
Get the envelopes so we can make them equally pretty! :-)
This is when he put his head on the table and muttered a prayer.......leastwise I THINK it was a prayer......

I got eight cards done!! :-)

He, on the other hand--stamped fourty cards and put pretties on the other 32..........AND stamped all the envelopes.


AND he stole the Rudolph pretty!!
Just for THAT--he can address all the pretty envelopes! HA!!

Mels' dream guy gets it...he just gets it done quicker ... LOL.

Mel, I am sure your cards are a beautiful keepsake that will continue to float around for years to come.
I think it is wonderful that your DH joins you on these enterprises & I wouldn't be surprised if these cards hold a special spot in his heart... for the memories they capture with you.

Please post a pic!
