1000 Markets Featured Shop, Christmas Cards & New Projects

But now to the reason I’m writing: this year I am on FIRE! (At least in one respect – lol). I got my Christmas cards printed and mailed by December 1st! This is a first for me, but having a new baby is good motivation. I got my cards from Candi with Creative Celebrations. It was so easy – I just went to her blog, chose my layout, sent her my pictures and got my .jpg file in an email, ready to print! (I used snapfish – .09 a print and FAST shipping!). Here are some of my favorite layouts (we chose the first one) but you can also click here to see all the styles she offers.

I also wanted to show you what I’m working on now – A baby quilt I’m calling “Daddy & Me”. It features various scenes of a retro-style dad doing “typical” dad-like things: golfing, driving round town, watching his son’s baseball game, fixing the lawn mower, etc.
