Hello, WOYWW Blog Hoppers
and all other crafty visitors!
Thanks to all the wonderful WOYWW hoppers who stopped by and left such nice welcoming messages! I know that I am going to enjoy participating in this group. I hope it is okay for me to invite y'all to participate, from time to time, in my two challenges: 613 Avenue Create and A Place To Start.
It is 11:03pm, and I am finishing up the Christmas cards that I am making for my SIL! When I spoke to her today, I found out that I had created five fewer cards than she asked for. I decided to create the five additional cards using the most simple design in her set. I also need to finish the tags for her gifts, but that is not urgent.
I had her cards all bundled up and ready to go and I even included a little pen for her convenience. I was going to make a gift bag, but she poo-pooed that idea. She has the bag I created for her last year and she is bringing that when she comes to pick up her cards.
I think she will like these colors. I am having a difficult time finding card stock to match the blue gift box. I think I have one that is close...we'll see.
NOW I GET TO SHARE THE CARDS THAT HAD MY STUDIO IN SUCH A MESS LAST WEEK!
I have been so busy with my community organizing efforts, trying to get the cards done, and getting my challenge blogs caught up, that I totally forgot that Chanukah starts on December 11th. I was wondering why The Hubster was asking me about Donuts and Latkes! Baruch HaShem, Amazon exists! At least I was able to order my Chanukah candles and I had an excuse to purchase a new Chanukiah! Our celebration will be a bit muted this year because my grandkids won't be coming down from Maryland but I am looking forward to lighting that first candle! It is a great reminder that no matter how bleak things may seem, there is always room for a miracle!
I hope to be able to join the Zoom Crop on Saturday. I can't join until after Shabbos ends at 6:09pm. (EDT)
Enjoy the rest of your week! Be well, stay safe, keep crafting!
Hugz,
Chana Malkah
