Reginald's Christmas Cards


Happy Thursday Everyone!
I have had one heck of a week but I've been busy as you can see!!  I changed my mind about my son's Holiday cards for his newspaper route---I needed to simplify things a bit but I do believe these came out GREAT!  I used 4 different colors & made 10 of each....Real Red, Soft Suede, Night of Navy & Old Olive.  I had to use my Big Shot to add some texture & I also decorated the inside a bit.....sorry but I couldn't get a very good shot of that!  These will be delivered this Saturday with his weekend papers---I'll be at work but I've given him specific instructions on how to place them in the bag with the papers.....I know; I'm being a bit overbearing but I want them to FIND the cards on top not buried underneath LOL!!!

This past week has given me some perspective about being able to post on my blog daily like I want.  It's really  busy at work & my weekends are now tied up with me being there since some of the other girls can finally take time off now that I'm a part of their team.  I'm not working today which is why I'm finally able to post something for you.  I don't have another day off until next Monday which is not really a day off because I'll be hosting my Customer Appreciation/Christmas Gift class that evening for my wonderful clients that have supported me this year.  Geez, I could go crazy trying to figure everything out!!!  Don't worry, I'm not abandoning my blog or anything like that!  If you don't see a new post for a couple of days just know that LIFE is truly hectic right now but I'm still here and will post as soon as I get a chance!!!!

With that being said, my next post will be on Saturday for the Etsy challenge & I hope to have something to share by Tuesday of next week.  I'll give myself an extra day just in case I get called in to fill in for someone!!  Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great rest of the day!!
TTFN,
Hugs,
