the postman...

...always rings twice. usually he is looking for lana turner or jessica lange...but on saturday he was bringing this...

...from my amazing & lovely trout-lovin', card-makin', long-lost sister, stephanie! believe me, the photo does NOT do it justice! not only is it lovlier looking than in the picture...it's lovely feeling, too! the pale bits of the circle pattern are reverse-embossed...and the inside has textured words...and a fantastic stamped sentiment...and glittery writing!

so just another reminder, especially at this time of the year, when we all have too much to do, and not enough time in which to get it done...handmade cards??!

SOOOOOOOO WORTH IT!!!!!

(thanks, girlfriend! xolb)
