Seasons of Friendship

I liked this stamp set, I've used it a bunch already this year. These were some cards I made for friends.

Sock Monkey Santa

So I decided that I was going to try to do one crafty thing each night as a way to unwind from the day and feel like no matter what happened through the day, I got one thing completely finished. So here's our sock monkey santa for tonight.

Patriotic Card

Cory had a student this cycle that became a US citizen during the cycle. He and the other students decided to go in on a really nice flag to present to the student at graduation. He wanted a card to go with and so we printed this picture out and put it on the front. Cory did most of the handiwork, but I wanted to show at least the idea.

Holiday Cards

This is the first year in a while that I decided to make our cards from scratch. Since I had lots of stamps and lots of paper I decided to try a few things. I wanted to keep it simple so Cory would make them with me. Many hands make light work or something.
This is the card we decided to send. I should have scanned one of the better ones we did. This was the prototype. We cut the paper in half the long way and then scored it at 3" and 6".

Here it is folded out. Simple and cute and it only took us maybe two hours to make 40.

This was my other prototype. I thought it was cute, but it was a lot more work and I didn't think I liked it once I realized how long it would take to make 40. I still sent it out though.
