HOLA HOLA HOLA

This Christmas card is dedicated to my very special friend Bailey Turner. I found the idea for this card on this website and knew it was the most perfect card for her!

RECIPE CARDS

This shouldn't come as a surprise to many, but I am not the best cook or even baker for that matter, but I do put in a decent attempt.  The fact that I am a picky eater and usually cooking for one, really is what I think holds me back from becoming the master chef that I wish I could be. I love watching cooking shows and reading blogs to get recipe ideas. Most of my recipes are found online, and I just print them out. Over time, I have accumulated quite the collection of "printouts" that recently it has been driving me crazy. 

I decided its time I invest in a cute recipe book/box.  I came across a few really cute recipe cards online for very reasonable. Just as I was about to purchase a set, I said to myself, "what are you doing, I can make this!". So that's exactly what I did. I designed 3 different recipe cards, all 4.25" x 5.5" , now all I need to purchase a matching box and I am all set.  Tie these up with a little ribbon, and they make a pretty cute holiday gift.

CARD #1: FRONT AND BACK



CARD #2: TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS

GETTING IN THE HANUKKAH SPIRIT

It's December, which means Christmas literally threw up EVERYWHERE. The grocery store, target, work, the mall. It is bananas. To me, the most frustrating thing this time of year isn't the crazy amount of people shopping or lack of parking spots anywhere... its the non-existent amount of Hanukkah respect! Don't get me wrong, I secretly lovvvvvvve Christmas (minus the music) and practically celebrate it every year with Collin and his family. But find it nearly impossible to buy my family a decent Hanukkah card anywhere! Last year I remember Stacey and I drove around to 5 different stores in search of a Hanukkah card to send to my Grandpa.  We went home defeated, and made him a card out of leftover construction paper. This year, I am not only prepared but beating the system. I am creating/designing my OWN Hanukkah cards. Take that Christmas!
