Mission Accomplished! (Finally!)

I finally finished my holiday cards today….yay!!!!  Okay, I still have to address them and print out a picture of my daughter to include, but I don’t count that part.  If I did, it might be Christmas before I posted this ;)

See this post for the first few of many steps in the process.  I definitely will go for something more simple next year!  I mounted the ornament pictures with foam tape to dark brown cardstock stamped with a snowflake in Brilliance chocolate ink, then attached to these Martha Stewart cards I bought for $1 per package on sale at Michaels a few months ago.  

I originally planned to tie the ornaments on with thin silver string, but decided against it after the many hours it took to get to this point.  I finally decided to draw the string on with my Sakura Stardust Pen & ruler.  One of the ornaments look a little crooked in this picture, but hopefully our friends & family won’t notice!
