Everyone likes to get mail

Tis the season...when I never feel like I have enough time to make all the homemade holiday gifts, cards, and cookies as I'd like to!  Last weekend was devoted to making holiday cards to send--a great idea is to use your holiday catalogs and December editions of your magazines to make pretty homemade cards that aren't to time or labor intensive!  I found Real Simple magazine super useful, because they have gorgeous images.  I also recommend Garnet Hill and J. Crew for christmasy clippings and great text that can layer over pretty pictures!  I made more collage-y cards as well, and will post those in a few days, but for now here are a few samples!
