Hi to all my lovely WOYWW friends out there in blogger land!
I am still busy, busy, BUSY, as I am sure all of you are these days. It never seems to end, does it? Of course! Decorating is FINALLY finished, Christmas cards are almost completed, they should all be in the mail tomorrow! yay! BTW, thank you again to everyone that sent me a card, So instead of my desk here is a video of my card display!
*You can also see my Santa village against the windows complete with snowflakes I have dangling down and on the dining room table ( hanging head in shame, for they have been on my table for 6 months!! lol ) is my collection of Charles Chips memorabilia which still have not found their way to a shelf ( mainly cause I keep forgetting to buy one! ) And if you want to know about my childhood and why Charles Chips is important to me, you can go here. *
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you can see, my little stacked trees have been a popular motif for me this year ;) These are the ones being sent to family, and since they never come to my blog,( or if they do, they never leave me a comment, how rude, huh? ) it's safe to show them.

And this is the card that I sent out to my WOYWW friends, I am pretty sure everyone has received theirs by now, so it should be safe to show! If not...close your eyes! lol

I ran the background paper through my Big Shot with the Fiskars snowflake embossing plate, then layered 4 different strips of pattern paper all inked with brown ink to create my Christmas tree. A little twine and some star sequins and voila, done!

I kicked off the week with a photo gift ball ornament which you can see here, and next up is Melissa. She made some canvas photos's for a gift for her brother and they look awesome! I hope you stop by and check it out!

great cards you have been busy! trace x
this was the worst of all possible times to be on hiatus, since I seem to miss out on a lot of your awesome die machine inspired art. I adore these trees. The embossing folders are amazing and make the perfect backdrop for a great card.
Hi from a cold and frosty north west of England Sandee! Great set of stacked trees! x

Hi Sandee,
Merry Christmas to you! I received your lovely card and one is flying to you as I type this! I love the stacked Christmas tree. How fun with all the papers you have! Yep, I might make some of these up.....
Realtor comes Friday to take photos of my place so hopefully I'll have it up for sale by the end of the weekend.

Hello you have been busy, I have rec'd my card but think I forgot to say so I'll again if not, Thank you,it's fab, and is on my coffee table with the other handmade cards I've received. Thanks for popping by, yep showers, I'm trying to get my bath removed, the shower is over the bath, but got to wait till I see OT in New Year for an official recommendation for a walk-in shower. Keep your fingers crossed for me! Take care Zo xx 86
Your stacked tree cards are fabulous, we love them. What a great idea.
Thanks for visiting the bears this week.
6 months! Were you just super ready for snow or what? lol :) And I read the other comments so now I have to watch your video again because I didn't get to hear you the first time...yep, looks like my speaker is muted, not your fault at all. :) Anyways, good job getting all your cards completed and mailed...hope you haven't done like our fearless leader Julia and forgotten about your hand delivery ones! lol And it looks like you have received quite a few handmade ones to display, so nice of you to take that short video and show them off for us, aren't you a sweetie! :) Thanks for stopping by my workspace already and leaving me a helpful comment. I did wonder if you meant the frame or something else by "trim"...? I assumed frame and I think you are right but if you meant trim, hmmm, I might be confused! lol :)

Thanks for visiting my desk and leaving such a nice comment! Have a great week! Vickie #3

Wow Sandee, that's a great little video, it was good to hear the voice of someone I have been chatting to/with for so many months now! Loved your card, have it displayed on the wall in our sitting room. Love your family cards too, great colours. Hugs, Anne x #21
PS - I knitted the matching mit last night so it is no longer a single mit......

love the fab quick card design! now off the watch the video! Happy WOYWW! Lindsay #82
Lovely cards, and your village is so pretty. That little video is such a good idea. I have often wondered if I should do something similar for those cards that do not show up well on photos, you know the ones with the glitter etc. I still have a lot to do, but I am hoping that tomorrow may see most of it done. Have a good week. xx Maggie #33
