Christmas Card 2

Tanner's last tennis lesson was today.  I can tell he has improved, since the beginning of the summer and he likes it...YAY!  He told me, "Dad and I are going to be the best tennis players in the house."  I hope so!  I would love it, if either Tate or Tanner liked tennis as much as their dad.

It is a hot one again today.  I think the heat index is 100 today.  That is down from yesterday, so that is good. It is supposed to rain tonight and we need it.  Our grass is turning brown and I don't want to water it.  The boys and I prayed for a hot summer, so we are enjoying it.  Our pool is crystal clear and we have company coming over every day to swim.

On with today's card:

I used the same stamp set, Big Christmas for this one.  I love this set.  Again, I kept it simple, so it wouldn't take a long time to make a lot of these for the workshop.

I started working on the August Scrap Challenge at Paper Craft Planet yesterday using My Digital Studio to create the templates Jen made for the group.  Hopefully, I will get the first layout done within a week.  I have club tonight and I am going to my friend, Kim's on Thursday night, so I won't have a lot of time to create the week.  

We have walk to school night Thursday, so Tate and Tanner will be able to meet their teachers.  They already know who they have, so that is not the exciting part.  Tate can't wait to see who is in his class this year.  Tanner just can't wait to start Kindergarten.  I hope I am ready.  I will need to remember to take my camera for his first day.

Have a good one!


Christmas Card 1

This is the last week my boys have of summer vacation.  I will be sad to see them go back, because I love having them home with me.  I will be able to get back to a regular cleaning, stamping and exercise schedule, so that will be nice.

It is not too early to start thinking about your Christmas cards.  I can't believe it is August already and once school starts time is going to fly even faster.

It is going to be really HOT this week in Nebraska, so I am going to cool down showing you the Christmas cards I made for my Christmas card workshop this fall.  My goal was to make them simple & cute.  I wanted the stampers to be able to mail their cards without a lot of extra postage.  Stampers will be able to make cards in sets of 10 anywhere from 10 to 70, 80....  I have created five cards for this workshop.  All cards are made with the Jolly Holiday designer series paper.
