Yesterday's post was super fun and I let my dear husband do the talley's for me as I had my "hands to my work space" and finished up Holiday orders …and I am THRILLED to say – I am done!
Between comments left on my blog and emails that were sent – I had over 42 comments – (votes) and the winner is……
1st place = #6…WOWZERS – here is the link!
2nd place…at a very close race was #1 – here is the link!
and third place was #3 – here is the original link……click here!
I went ALL day without looking at the computer as I really wanted to get all of my orders behind me so I can continue to have fun making things for my family and friends…..and a BIG thank you to my hubby for helping me!!!!
I am going to take your advice and I will show you some "tweaks" that I might have to do because of paper etc…This was a FUN way to get great feedback! I am going to change up some colors of paper and I have some ideas ready….we'll see how it works out!
Do you remember that I had a pity party last week when my order did not come in…well it did and I was "strong" – (I guess a bit) that I did not DIVE into it until I fulfilled my orders and then…….when I saw a new vellum paper…..WOW – I can see a beautiful Holiday card in the making!
Monday's I only work a half day….so after doing some errands – I can hardly wat to get home and create! My mind is already spinning and I know that you will smile!!!!
A BIG THANK YOU for helping me with my holiday cards…..I am going to try to change the color of the poinsettia and see if I can get an "Ivory" color! I will be sure to report back!!!! I also LOVED the comment about how it mails! – I am going pop one in the mail to a friend that will be TOTALLY honest with me…and I will let you know!!!!
Let have a SUPER week and keep telling yourself…..PACE YOUESELF – HAVE FUN – REMEMBER what the JOURNEY is about…..
One thing that I tell my children time and time again…..
"If there is no joy in the journey…there is no joy in the journey's end!
I LOVE this message and I hope that it makes you stop and reflect!!!! Have a great and safe week – this IS a stressful time of the year – but make sure that JOY is in YOUR journey!
Until tomorrow!
Hi Susan, Great card and great fun with this post. I really love your blog. I enjoyed reading all the comments too. Have fun today. 🙂
Susan ~ You might try a “tiny” drop of Crumb Cake to the white to create a soft Ivory…if that is not “warm” enough then add a bit of soft yellow (perhaps Saffron). Just a suggestion.
Beautiful Cards — as always. Thanks for the inspirations.
I can’t wait to see how the ivory one turns out!
Ummmm, I didn’t see my comment yesterday when I looked. Oh well. I couldn’t decide anyway. All of them were great! Ivory will be fun for the poinsettia. I am glad I broke down and bought the set to play with at a later date. I have seen many great cards and colors of the poinsettias.
Dear Susan, I agree with your vote the cards each are beautiful. You are such an amazing artist. I have the Poinsettia set. I am really enjoying some of your beautiful ideas. Great job. Have a great stamping day. Hugs, Ellen Hinds.
Susan, I forgot to add to my comment. I love your quote on the Joy of the Journey. I wrote it down to share with my friends and family. Thanks for being such a wonderful inspiration to me and to all of us. God bless You and have a blessed christmas. Ellen Hinds
