Merry Monday 2010 #1

I've been working on Christmas cards (who hasn't??), but I was smart this year...
Last year, I was scrambling to get all my cards done by Thanksgiving, as I give my Mom, my sisters and my hubby's Aunt a boxed set of cards as an early Christmas gift (see post HERE for the story and last year's cards)

This year, I got a head start on my cards, so I'm ahead of schedule. YAY me!

I've decided to start a MERRY MONDAY post to share my 2010 cards with you. I'll be posting Christmas cards every Monday until Christmas. I made 6 each of 12 different cards, and as these are to be mailed I kept them standard A2 size and limited the embellishments so they aren't bulky. I'll try to post recipes if I can remember what I used...this has been a 3 month project.
