Since activities around Christmas fill up the days before the 25th, Dale and I have moved to sending New Year Cards instead of Christmas cards. This year it was a joint venture.
Dale did the math, then made the template the way I envisioned it. We printed it on heavy cardstock.
Then I got busy painting, using a video tutorial I found on Facebook.
Following the video, I painted ...
and painted. I used three shades of green, red, some gold, and a silver/grey mix. The painting is done with Q-Tip cotton swabs. I ended up making 20 cards.
While I was painting and signing the back of the cards, Dale wrote the poem.
I addressed the envelopes, he helped with the licking of the envelopes (mmmm ... tasty!), adding the return address label I designed, and adhering the Christmas postage stamps.
What a team!
