So, first off I just want to say that today was a super fun mail day! I do believe we broke the record today for the most Christmas cards received on the same day! LOL! 7 Christmas cards came today, plus my new coat from L.L. Bean came AND my Clip-it-Up came! Whoohoo!!
We have received so many beautiful Christmas cards this year -- and quite a few from my sweet stamping/scrapping friends who've sent us hand made cards. Thank you so much, to each one of you. I can't tell you how much I love getting fun mail - but fun mail that's been hand-made?? Well that's just extra special!! I get so excited with each card that I open. There's just something about getting a Christmas card in the mail.....the anticipation I feel when opening that envelope to see what surprise awaits. Perhaps a photo of a sweet baby or family, a pretty design, a beautiful Christmas scene, a hand-written note.....each reflecting the personalities of the sender. For me, it's just happiness...
Thank you, each one.
The best part about my new coat is that it was FREE because we used our rewards points from our Discover card to get it! Whoohoo!! It's super light weight but very warm and I think it's pretty cute too! ;) What do you think??
Stay tuned for pictures of the Clip-it-Up in action! We spent our evening wrapping and wrapping some more, but almost all the gifts are wrapped and ready to go. Hubby and I just have to wrap our gifts for each other which we obviously couldn't do while in the same room wrapping everyone else's gifts! ;) All that being said, I've had very little time in the studio so you'll have to wait just a bit longer for the Clip-it-Up pictures. {Sorry!} But I'm so excited to share them!! Getting organized - definitely a good thing!
