My stash has been de-stashed, and that's happy news. The cards I passed along to my mom for her Christmas Bazaar sold. All sold - and according to mom's report, the majority were bought by a young guy, who just 'happened' to be in the market for home-made cards. I'm so delighted that mine appealed to him. The more recent cards found a home with our school's librarian, who makes the most lovely stained glass pieces of art. We negotiated an exchange: my cards, her glass. Once I decide on which piece I want - gift for my sister, I think - I'll share here. A win-win arrangement, all around.
For now, a quick share of two tags that I'm 'testing out' for another round of 10, for the 90 tags I'm making. Inky Paws #5
Here's my *snowshoe* hare and toque-and-scarf sporting penguin, water-coloured with distress markers...
Aren't these images super sweet? I think my decision is made: going for a set of 10!
Thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments make my day!

Good thing I have a good stash that I can grab from as the holidays are quickly approaching. You're tags are adorable!! I love the combination of red, green, and blue for holidays cards!! Thanks so much for sharing :)
Well done having your cards sell :) Great exchange of goods too - best way to go! Btw, Noel knows you and hubby well as well as everyone you mentioned :)
Awww! Cute! I love that you used the sketch to create tags! The birdie over the bunnies head is too funny! Makes me smile! Thanks for playing along with our Inky Paws Challenge at Newton's Nook Designs this month!

Congratulations on having every card sold, Carol ... you must be so delighted (bet your Mum was so proud too!). I love stained glass ... looking forward to seeing the 'exchange' piece.

Don't worry - I haven't sent my cards out either! In fact I just realized that I didn't make nearly enough of them so I'm scrambling to make more this weekend!! And then write in them, and then address them! How did I leave it to the last minute like this!!!

I'm officially in pre-Christmas panic mode, so will keep this short and simple....SA-WEEEEET TAGS dear friend. Put these pretties on a bazaar table and stand back...a stampede will follow....full of elbows and trips and clawing and pulling hair....just to snag your products!
Told ya you are awesome!
Oh, these are so sweet!
