I give my daughter, sister, and nieces handmade cards they can send out. Even though I give them other gifts the cards are always their favorites! So nice to be with the people you love and have them appreciate your efforts. Merry Christmas and God bless.

Your cards are an example of what I love most: that the focus is on all the best things in life like love, peace, joy and sharing it all with others.

Wow, your cards are so beautiful! My favorite is the red one with the Christmas lights. What’s my favorite thing to do at Christmas? Hmm, that’s a hard one. I love the baking & all the goodies I don’t have the rest of the year, the cards from people I don’t hear from too often and most of all, I love getting together for the big dinner with family.

Wonderful cards. I really love the ones with the great backgrounds.
My favorite thing to do at the holidays is put up the tree filled with memories from all the ornaments made/purchased over the years

My favorite thing to do is be with my family! Just spending time together doing fun and exciting things we don’t normally get to do during the rest of the year.

I love your cards and so many different ones. I see a couple that I will recreate. It’s a sad Christmas with family all over. I miss those times when the kids were home and being with loved ones. Growing up we all seemed to live by relatives but things sure change and with us getting older most have passed on. I hope you have a Blessed Merry Christmas and make memories. Your cards are so inspirational.

My favorite thing to do during the holidays is spend time with my two daughters, just being together watching movies, baking, reading, shopping, knitting, eating, going on hikes or bike rides. We’re always so busy during the year, that it’s so nice to be able to slow down and hang out, as they are growing so fast! Love your cards, they’re always so amazing!
Dec . 18 . 2017Kirsty Vittetoe
My favorite thing to do is to play board game or card game with my kids when they are home for the holiday!

Such beautiful cards. I love to carry on the traditions that we started when my children were little but they are now grown and married. We do have a new granddaughter so I hope to start traditions with her such as a dated ornament each year. decorating the tree, and photos with Santa!

I love to decorate my home! I have an obsession with snowmen, so I have a large collection I put out! I also love to spend an entire day baking with my daughter! She comes to my house early in the morning, we have breakfast together, and then we bake all kinds of cookies! It’s a fun, all day marathon!
