Good morning everyone...I hope y'all had a great weekend!! We had lunch with Mom and Dad for Father's Day....my boys all spent the day with their families. It's hard to believe that my little boys are old enough to be fathers....sure makes me feel old!!! I need to apologize to all of you on my email list...I was hacked this weekend and spam was sent to your emails...I am so sorry!!!! What makes those idiots think that they are going to sell their products by spamming people....what jerks!!!! I have changed my email password twice and have stayed logged out most of the day...I hope it all goes away!!!! Anyway....
I have been working on my Christmas card designs for the Christmas in July sale at the church. I worked on three designs yesterday that I can mass produce for the sale....sets of 6 and 8 sell real well especially if they are flat for mailing!!!
This one features an old retired stamp set from Stampin Up! called Nature's Christmas. The paper is from Anna Griffin and the doily die, pearls, and seam binding finish it off. I may have to take the bow off because it's just a little bulky.
This one features the Santa stamp from A Crafty Secrets Christmas set and the sentiment is from Flourishes Christmas Wreath set....the paper is Echo Parks Merry Christmas collection and the ribbon is the finishing detail.
I used Papertrey Ink's Holiday Button Bits set for the little button ornaments. The green background was embossed with a snowflake folder and the paper from echo Park and ribbon finish it off.
I'll be working on a few more designs this week and then the mass production begins!!!
Have a great day...I'm so glad you came by today!!!

Fantastic designs Joan! Love that Santa image!!! It's gorgeous! Have fun prepping for the sale!
These are all so nice, Joan! Each design is wonderful. I would have a terrible time having to choose a favorite! Thanks for sharing, and have a good week :)
They're all beautifully designed, Joan, but the first one is my favourite. I love your wreath and gorgeous Anna Griffin papers. They will all sell like hot cakes xx

It is not nice when they hack your email and send out there spam, it seems to happen so often these days.
All three cards are gorgeous, I like the designs, but my favorite has to be the first one.

Joan, these are all fabulous designs. Love them all and plan to case the Santa with a different image.
ALL are sensational! Love the buttons on the last one, dear old Santa on the middle one, and oh.....that first one is stunning! Very pretty collection of cards.
