I keep saying I’m done with handprint crafts. But it seems I can’t resist. At least I’ve finally found an age where it’s not a complete disaster. In fact, I made three of these little ornaments in about a half hour, in between frantic bouts of packing for our holiday trip. The idea has been around since before Pinterest existed. …
Sparkly Christmas Cards with Elizabeth Craft
I am already in panic mode over Christmas. I can’t even talk about it. But I can post these cards.
