Sew Thankful!

Before you go and pack up all that beautiful Christmas paper that you've got on your desktop - here's a fun idea. Make thank you notes! I have only about a zillion to write, and I've got scraps galore of paper that I still LOVE. I picked a few of my favorites, and sliced and diced, aged and stitched.

I even pulled out a stamp set that I simply HAD to have for Christmas, Signature Christmas but, ahem, somehow never got a chance to use. Bad girl!! But, how smart is this?? The set has a thank you sentiment in the set! Sweet!!

Lucky girl that I am, I received the most amazing sewing machine from my parents for Christmas. Oh my goodness, it is practically s-i-l-e-n-t when I'm working and so stinkin FAST!

Since the boys were more than entertained with a few new Wii games, and worked to my hearts content and quickly made my first sample, then cut all the papers, stitched all the layers and got all the fronts mass produced for another nine cards.

Maybe, just maybe next year, I'll think ahead and have these done in advance? But, somehow, I won't hold my breath!
