What beautiful and creative cards I saw in your picture, Cheryl. Be careful though, card-crafting is very addictive! It's a great hobby though and the creative possibilities are endless. I think you'd really enjoy it after seeing the beautiful card you sent.
What I make with my hands, I give with my heart .... |

Oh Linda I should have ran and added yours to that picture but this was just what came today and I guess I did post yours here the other day. I'm just blown away by everyone's creativity! Now please tell me how do I part with any of these beautiful cards to send them to anyone else??? All I want to do is put them all in frames as part of my holiday decor and hoard them all to myself. I am a shameless selfish woman LOL.

Thank you, Nettie for the lovely cards. I'm still trying to convince myself to send them on.

I am so glad everyone enjoyed their cards. Spent Black Friday at the craft store for hours eyeing up some new punches and paper. Picked out some new Christmas paper and hope to get time to try a new card, but must get to the sewing machine and get some sewing done too!

I got my cards out to Rod(Joey) and Deborah today....sorry they were later than I wanted them to be, but this cold is kicking my rear end...lol...I love all the pics of all the goodies...oh and I used the lick and stick glue on the envelopes I made for them...so all you have to do is damp them just like regular envelopes....I love that stuff...makes making envelopes a breeze.

I have gotten some great cards so far!! Mine are finally done and will be mailed either tomorrow or Th morning.
This came a week ago and I forgot to post - so sorry Phyllis!! Thank you! This is a real cute card using the iris folding technique, which I have been meaning to try:
I received a set of wonderful cards from Toni - four to give and one with a lovely note just for me :) Don't know what I did to deserve this whole set but I love them all! Thank you! Take a looksee:
Hate to play favorites but I am really digging the cardinal in particular.....

Thanks to you who were all so accepting to my husband Rod. He sees how much fun I have playing with the farmgirls and every now and then, he wants to play too. So thank you to the girls who got his cards and encouraged him too. He's a love. Joey

I received from Urban Chickie yesterday. Thank you, Catherine. It's a beautiful card. And thanks for the tip on the patina.
Is anyone else having trouble letting go of their beautiful cards? I want to keep all of them instead of sending them out.
