The tree's not even down yet...

... and I've already got 3 cards ready for Christmas 2012!

Yes, ok it's a bit crazy but I so got into the habit of creating a card every week that I thought, "It's Wednesday, time to get crafty for Christmas." And let's face it, one more isn't going to harm at the end of the year ;-)

So, in response to prompt #1 over at Jingle Belles, No Time Like The Present(s), I decided to go with the present chipboard pieces from BG Wassail to create this super simple card. I was inspired by a hand-made card I received this year and like the off-centre placement. It's a bit different and the card came together in just a few minutes.


Come on over to Jingle Belles and join in the fun. You'll be smiling all year and laughing by the time December comes around. :-)

    You're right - it's crazy! (Until Dec comes around and we are still making our cards in a mad rush - then you will be the sane one!) I must admit that I'm trying to finish my JYC and feel a bit fed up with Christmas stash at the mo :). Your card is lovely though ...

  5. (i'm totally chuckling at helen's comment...)

    as for crazy, missus; the way we USED TO MAKE XMAS CARDS (in a stressy rush the first week of december) and the fact that we did that for soooo many years before deciding "ENOUGH!!!" ...now see... i tend to think THAT was the crazy and THIS is just smart! ;) (but then i WOULD say that, right?!)

    as for being in "THE HABIT" of making a card EVERY week... tune in to JB on friday & see if anyone else you know is just too ingrained in the habit to stop now!) :) :) :)

    ps: this is ♥GORGEOUS♥ btw; of course i shoulda said that part FIRST but you know you've never made a card that does not make me drool!!!!!!!!!! ♥♥♥
