Christmas Cards

*Editor's Note: If you have left over Christmas cards or ones that you were given this season and want to find an Earth Friendly thing to do with them there are many tutorials out there for card wreaths, tags for next years presents, etc. But I think that we should all Send them to St. Jude's Ranch For Children. They use them to make new cards to sell for profit (you can send ANY cards there. Just rip off the front of the card (the part not written on) and send it to:

St. Jude’s Ranch for Children

Card Recycling Program

100 St. Jude’s Street

P.O Box 985

Boulder City, NV 89005-0985

I should note that up until reading about this on another blog (a blogger posting on Blissfully Domestic) I had never heard of St. Jude's Ranch For Children, so if you have any more information please let me know about it!*

Oh boy am I late in showing these haha! But you have to forgive me for two reasons: 1. It was the busy Christmas Season and I was alone with a 17-month old and 2. My husband comes home from deployment in TWO days and my life is a FLURRY of activity right now, cleaning, preparing, doing the happy dance a million times a day..you know...the usual.

Ok so here are the Christmas Cards I made this year, I have a TON more photos of the insides, outsides, backs, etc. but I'll just show you a few and then the photo of them all laying out on my living room floor :)

Happy New Year Everyone!!
