I know many of you totally put away Christmas and that includes stamps as well.  But I must tell you how wonderful it is to have ALL of your Christmas cards made early and ready to be mailed in December.  So start now, keep the spirit of the Christmas alive and flourishing in your heart as well as in your Craft room!  Come join us with the first CAS Christmas of the season and make a silver and gold Christmas card!  See you in the gallery and if you need more inspiration, please do check out the blog posted above and you will be inspired!
