The holidays sure snuck up on us! I just put away some lingering pumpkin deco last week! But this morning I officially got in the Christmas Spirit by stomping around a tree farm and hauling a big, tall and skinny Noble fir home.
I think it's about 10 feet tall or so (maybe taller? It may surprise us once we get it inside :-)), perfect to tuck into a corner of our family room. Good thing we have a 2-story ceiling in there!
Also Christmas-y are two swap creations I did to trade over at blissfulArt, a holiday card and tag. I love to make the little pleated rosettes to layer up, and now it will be easier because a friend just loaned me her scoring board.....Score!
I added in a little bit of holiday de-stash for my partner, too. |
The package from my swap partner got lost in the mail....crappy swap stuff always seems to happen to me (she says, whining). But I still enjoy having an outlet for these frivolous little bursts of creativity.
Happy Holidays!
Maggie, those cards are just stunning!
ReplyDeletethis year...unbelievable it's almost over; seems like it just got started!
ReplyDeleteYour card and tag are simply perfect! Love them! Those pinwheel rosettes are one of my favorite trims. I have a few dies from Tim Holtz that save my tendinitis when making them. Beautiful work, Maggie!
