Skipped Sunday? GASP!

How did I do that....do I lose my daily blogging status if I miss a day?  I had such a great day yesterday.  4 stampers at Stamp a Stack, A Royals WIN, Grass cut and laundry caught up.  So what happened?  I forgot, quite simply forgot!

So today you get a 2 fer, yes a Christmas card and a Bag featuring a NEW Holiday stamp set available September 1st from the NEW Holiday catalog.  I am having a Make & Take and Catty pick up next Sunday August 30th 12-4 so please rsvp at my website and come get your copy!

One of my stampers yesterday piled up a stack of new stamp sets and wanted me to use these first. 
I am happy to say I have completed that challenge so this week you are in for a treat of Holiday cards all week.  Christmas in August.....and then I will revert back to Halloween/Fall next week with a Christmas card thrown in here and there.  It is never to early to start your Christmas cards and this catty has bundles and kits that will get you there in no time!

First up the elusive Cardinal!  Love this set and the sentiments!  The Red Pom Pom trim and 1/8 Striped ribbon really make this bag a cutie!  I give neighbors candy every year and I think this will be my go to bag.  I picked up an 8 pack at Walmart for about $5, so that is a very economical gift bag!

I also used the Softly Falling embossing folder.   And added some branches on the inside with the sentiment.
This stamp set is intended to have a Watercolor look, but I did take my black marker and darken the Joyful.  Using a well inked stamp pad will give you the best results with this stamp set.
I will list the NEW catty supplies with page numbers.  Items below the starred line are from the Yearly catalog.
