I was never a big fan of the all nighter in college. It never did anything for me. Except make me just bleary eyed and more stupid the next day. But since becoming a Mom I seem to not have a choice in the matter. I've always been a GREAT sleeper. Until I had children I was one of those people who could sleep on the train going to and from work, I could sleep on planes, in cars, on the couch, on the floor, scrunched up in a chair, on a beach towel, on a chaise lounge...you name it and I could sleep in or on it. Again...until I had children. Now...I'm lucky to get 3 good hours a night on average. Lots of nights I get more than that but with each passing day it seems that I need less and less sleep to run on. In fact, the less sleep I get the better I function.
Weird, huh?
Anyway - last night was one of those nights. I got up at 2 am, watched an episode of my new favorite show '
What Not To Wear' and decided that since I hadn't even STARTED my holiday cards I figured...now was a good time.
So I am very proud to say that I started AND finished my cards in one night. I just sent my DH to the PO to drop them in the box!!
Here's a sneak peek!!
Oh and I have to thank my darling friend Sarah for the Night of Navy scraps (from her SIL's cards - last year!) and for helping me pull the design idea together last Monday night at her stamp club. I always feel good when I put scraps to good use. It's shameful to waste such wonderful cardstock!! Thanks Sar!!! XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

OH MY GOODNESS! Just from a glimpse I can see these are gorgeous! I can't wait to see one in person!
I also can't believe you made them all in one night! You're amazing.
Big hugs babe! Miss you!
Nice job! Can't wait to see them in person. I'm so thrilled you could use the card stock. Adorable!! :-)
Three hours a night? Are you serious? You are a saint - that little sleep would kill me!
The cards are beautiful, you are very talented.
Happy Holidays to you all!
