My Etsy Order and Christmas???

Hi there everyone....how you all doing? Well, it's SATURDAY!!!! Yay!!! JP will be home in 35 minutes....so I have a little bit of time to blog yet.

As you see below, the Flamingo cards are done. The lady did buy the cards from my Etsy store. So these cards are already packaged and ready to go into the mail on Monday. They turned out pretty good, I even made a book mark with a flamingo....see it laying on the cards??? I think I will make some more of these cards, as I gave one away today to a friend who is moving to Indiana....(sigh)....I shall miss her for sure.
Another picture of the cards from a different angle. Three Thank You cards and 3 Birthday cards.
As Christmas is only 100 days away......maybe, just maybe I should start thinking about making Christmas cards. I saw this one on Pinterest, it caught my eye and I thought this was a very pretty card. I can't believe....I do have the stamps to make this card from Stampin Up.
It is done on white card stock...the background trees are in blue and the tree in the foreground is embossed in gold....very easy peasy. I shall try it in the next few days.

So tomorrow I might go to a paper sale....not sure yet, depends on what time I get up and if JP is going to the church to clean....we shall see.

I had my mammogram on Wednesday....it went well. The last time I had one was 11 years ago....gosh I hated being squeezed. In those 11 years the machines have become digital and the compression is not so bad...yeah, I guess when it comes up again next year I will be more willing to go. As it is a screening....Medicare pays for it.

Well, this is a short post....guess I will close for now. Enjoy your weekend as it goes way to fast!!! Keep looking up cause better days are coming. Cheers ~ Louise

This year is going by so fast already! Hard to believe - I already heard my first Christmas commercial on the radio though for a Christmas play - too soon when we still have temps in the 80s!

Glad you are doing well - the cards are beautiful!!

Hi Biz...thanks, guess it is kind of a relief that everything is well. Christmas is already up at Hobby Lobby....I am sure Walmart is not far behind. I like the temps in the 70's you guys are a bit warmer then us....lol!

I knew you wouldn't mind your mammogram this time. They have made great strides to make them better. So glad you did it. 100 days, oh good grief. I won't be ready!

Hi Patty....thanks for stopping by. The Flamingo's are stamps, I just colored them in with markers. Thanks.

Hi Brenda, I was nervous about the mammogram...but the lady doing the exam put me at ease, so that was half the battle...she did a lot of talking and we had in common, making cards. Oh yeah...now it is 95 days and counting.....(smile)
