January! How time flies when you're having fun!! Maybe I can be more diligent this month with the holidays over ... well, almost! We are having our family Christmas next weekend. We were all spread apart during Christmas and New Year. My husband and I drove to Maryland to spend the holidays & her birthday for a couple of weeks. My sister and her family spent most of the time at her son's home along with my other sister and my mom on Christmas day. So we are all getting together next Sunday to enjoy our family time.

| HAPPY NEW YEAR! |
I was so busy during December that I didn't realize I never received the new mini catalog or the Sale-a-Bration catalog. As a demonstrator, I should have received the catalogs in early December. And to make things worse, I also didn't receive my December Paper Pumpkin kit! My catalogs were supposed to arrive today and the Paper Pumpkin is scheduled to arrive on Monday. But, who knows, they are both coming with USPS and mine tend to get held up in Butner or Greensboro a lot. (note: so much for thinking the catalogs were delivered today - no way! Hopefully Monday!)
After working in my craft room this morning getting everything put away, I made a couple of masculine cards. I going to try and use up some of my DSP ... to make room for the new stuff! I made these cards using the World of Good DSP and stamp set.
I used some DSP on this card along with Marina Mist and Cinnamon Cider cardstock. I'm sorry to say that this DSP, dies and stamp set are all retired. I love the Old World Paper 3D embossing folder & was sorry it was retired.
This card is made using Early Espresso that was embossed with the Old World Paper embossing folder. I stamped the compasses on Kraft Paper using my Stamparatus to line them up. I used the Taylor Made Tags die to die cut the tag. The sentiment was stamped with VersaMark and embossed with Copper powder.
