"The Stockings Were Hung"

I worked like the dickens and managed to be on time this year, finishing my cards, getting them addressed and in the mail!  Whew what a relief!  I love making them and I love sending them, but it's always such a panic to finish all the little notes, add pictures and make sure everything's properly in the envelopes.  And next year I swear I'm making some of those box envelopes so that all my embellishments lie flat, or maybe I'll make single layer cards.  I had to pay double postage on about 20 of my envelopes this year, just because the little rhinestone on the stockings stopped the envies from going through the postal slot.  Oh well at least they got mailed, and here's a closer look at what I sent.  I think all my friends will like them.  How about you?

These are so pretty Penny. I'm sure your friends and family will really enjoy them. I know it's a nuisance when you have the one little bulge that forces you to add extra postage. I use a piece of the chip board that comes with the dsp to cover up my card fronts. I've been lucky 99% of the time that it doesn't need extra postage.
