November/December

I finished the year-long card series for 2013 for my grandmother-in-law just in time!  Not that I couldn't have actually waited until next year to complete it, but I wanted to finish before baby girl arrives.  So here are the cards for November and December 2013:

The pumpkin is done in watercolor crayons.  I don't have an individual pumpkin stamp, just one that's part of a montage of fall items.  It just wasn't going to work for this concept.

And to conclude the year...a December angel.  This is one of my new stamps and I absolutely love the way it cascades into snowflakes at the bottom!  Add a scrap of red to frame her and it's done!

A Year of Cards

Last Christmas I decided to make a card a month for my husband's grandmother.  She actually collects the cards I make, which I still find amazing!  I didn't really take pictures of the cards for this year as I went...it was a little busy/tiring year.  So here is the rest of the year that I haven't sent off just yet.  :)

August - Pieced together tulips

September - She was a school teacher :)

October - Little Mummy

November - Watercolors

December - Simple snow and moon

I've already started on next year's set - between new baby any day now and a graduate research class I just don't see much time for card making.  There will be some just to keep my sanity, but I'm not doing much else these days and had the inspiration to get started!
