Nine Drummers Drumming Sandi: Maximum Embellishment |
The 9th Day of Christmas ATC comes from Sandi at Maximum Embellishment. It is amazing. I have no idea how she created this card, but the rectangle within the rectangle in the middle, is raised with some sort of texture material that kind of glistens. I know I am not describing this well, but trust me, it is truly beautiful. This is definitely one of my favorites. I love it. BTW, Sandi's blog is beautiful, too. You should check it out.
I received two more sets of cards in the mail yesterday. First, my daughter drew and painted (watercolor) a fish several months ago at school. This artwork was sent to a company in Colorado where it was converted into blank note cards. I can't get over how awesome the cards turned out! On the reverse, my daughter's full name, her school name, and the date is printed. What a truly fabulous way to preserve and showcase her art.

I also received Penny's card in the mail. The theme for December's Blissful ATC Swap is "Angels." Penny's interpretation is beautiful. She also sent me an ornament for our tree as well as a fantastic handmade card.
Thanks Penny. I knew your card would be great!
As promised, here is a photo of my new/old $10.00 Goodwill desk.
I thought I'd better get a picture posted before it gets too out of control messy! Is it awesome!!! It is gigantic..obscenely huge..I love it! (Still hate the horrid chair, though).
