Have you purchased your set of Tim Holtz' Winter 2011 Seasonal Distress Inks? There are a few sets left; it's a limited distribution and they won't be back until next holiday season!

The Olympia Paper Dolls are making Christmas cards for residents of one of the area convalescent homes. This is one of my cards I'm handing in Tuesday afternoon. Oops! I just looked again . . . I have to add the bling and ribbon! Silly me for posting before it's finished. Oh well, y0u get the idea.

This day feels like it's longer than the 'longest day' of the year in June; perhaps moving the clock back an hour has something to do with it. It felt like 9 p.m., and it was only 5:30 p.m. Just one more thing to keep my body clock in full dysfunctional mode.
