I used to make Christmas cards every year, particularly when my children were small,  but in the last few years times seems to just disappear.  And I always thought when children left home and I retired from my "day job" I'd have lots of time.  Hah!  But, for this year at least, I've decided to make the time for a few handmade  traditions, including card making and a little holiday baking. 

I also received a call from the finisher to say the Wild Roses Oval Box I just completed is already finished. I'm very excited to see how it turned out and will post a picture on Monday or Tuesday.
