Christmas cards
I make them every year for family and close friends. Cheaper than buying gifts and I like doing it.
I have some antique-y traditional-themed Christmas card supplies from last year, but I also want a new theme to use. Should it be:
Snow - silver, white, blues
Jolly - Santa, stockings, bold colors, more whimsical
Golds, deep greens, nature-based (deer, trees, birds)
Music, bold reds, carolers, song lyrics, yada yada
Any other ideas? It's always difficult for me to pick. Michaels will be where I'm going for everything.
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

Okay so I just got back from Michaels and here's what I got:
Silver and gold card stock for the cards themselves
Not a lot to choose from in terms of song/instruments/song lyrics. So I stuck with more wintry for the silver card stock. I got some snowflake items but also some jolly-themed items that will match with the silver/white/blue theme (stockings, presents, etc).
For the gold, I couldn't find ANY cool/retro nature stuff. None. I was pissed... and then I remembered I have really cool leaf rubber stamps at home that my aunt got me. So I bought deep green ink and a tri-colored ink pad with dark gold, lighter gold and silver ink. So I'll combine some more of the antique traditional stuff with nature, and use more golds and greens with those themes.
And I found some basic "happy holidays", "noel", "merry christmas" rub-on decals in a few colors and will use those, too.
Yay!
Oh. LOL. Since I'm single, living alone and essentially by myself for the vast majority of the holiday season, I said I NEED A TREE and got a teeny one for my kitchen table, and bought mini-ornaments. Basic, but it will make me really happy.
Oh, there are a grand total of like 10 ornaments and it's only 2 feet or so. heh. I'll probably put it up this afternoon.
