DIY Christmas Cards

It seems early to be thinking about Christmas cards but I like to have mine done early that way when there is a 10 cent sale at a local print shop I can be ready to print them out.  For the past 4 years I have been doing our own Christmas cards.  Here is our Christmas card from last year.  I simple took a picture that my talented friend Kait took and used a free Christmas card template.



This year to find my templates I did a search in Pinterest and found some great templates.  Here are 3 that I really like from one site called Simple as that. 




Now all I need to do is find the picture that I really like.  So that you wonderful friends and family can stare at our pretty faces all year long! hehehe  Enjoy making your own Christmas cards this season!

Movemeber


Our whole family is getting into the Movember mode as we work together raising money for prostate cancer.   If you would like to donate to our family please visit my hubby's Mo space HERE.   

Now on to the crafty part of this post.  I made these cute little stach's using a template from easy makes me happy blog.  She suggested using stiff felt but since I didn't have any I just used black card stock.  For the stick I used a small skewers with the sharp tip cut off and to attach it all together I used a glue dot cause I can't find my glue gun.  

We had lots of fun laughing together yesterday as we took these shots.  Here is Eben and daddy.

We even got the photographers on the other side of the camera and got them involved as well.


Don't forget to give some cash to someone for their stash!!!
