Anyway, I only make about 20 handmade cards every Christmas and send photo cards to everyone else. My crafty friends get handmade cards, as do my daughter's teachers.

I vow to get started earlier every year, and then I get stuck in the same old rut. I usually make about 50 cards each year, but I also make all of my gift tags, and a lot of paper projects to tuck in with gifts...so that all adds up. I really need to take your lead and make multiples of ones that I like but I can't seem to stay on track..sigh.Karenladdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17392815855900173356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798914461149907138.post-50626644962809114142018-07-23T20:42:14.040-05:002018-07-23T20:42:14.040-05:00This is so cute!

Approx. 100+. By November we finalize the list, and print off labels, which I put on and start writing notes in the certain ones. They all get mailed out Monday after Thanksgiving and then I can start to play making any I just feel like making. No rush, and then I start the next year. I have boxes ready of all the ones for this year. Already way over 100 done so now it's onto 2019! This way I'm never in a rush and have fun doing them.jordanbev5@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812645516289531369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798914461149907138.post-16765769539482565002018-07-22T21:20:49.169-05:002018-07-22T21:20:49.169-05:00Love that sweet little aqua bird!

I may use the same supplies on a couple of them but always change something up. That's why I do 'em year round! Also I try to convince myself when it's hotter than Hades, that I'm feeling nice and cool with the Christmas theme, lol!Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03770378438911571353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798914461149907138.post-26108301626225709342018-07-21T14:11:50.069-05:002018-07-21T14:11:50.069-05:00What an absolute cutie!

I send out about 10 cards half get handcrafted as I know they appreciate my cards and the others receive a $1 store card as I know it’ll just end up in the garbage, I only return Xmas cards to those who sent to me the previous year. Eash year the list gets smaller.
