I never seem to get anything done but today I have two things to crow about. First, I have Pup's sweater. The whole time I was working on it my head kept telling me it was going to be way too big.
Nope. It's not. She may be be little but she's wide. Kind of like me.
We also got the last of the cards made. We ended up doing 35 in all. Apparently The Mister has to send one to everyone he ever met.
I was having too much fun to stop so I decided to dress up the envelopes too.
I used a couple of sheets of blank Avery address labels and my stamp set.
I had to order some fine tip permanent markers to do the job. My regular alcohol markers won't take the elements too well. I found this big set on Amazon. I know it's the Christmas rush but I have to say Amazon is on top of it's game. If I even mention that I need something it's on my doorstep the next morning. I am starting to wonder if Alexa really is listening in.

Love Pup's new sweater. It fits great. I was just thinking that I need to start putting Chloe's on her. We're supposed to start getting snow again Friday and it's predicted through next Thursday. It is supposed to be in the 30's during the day so it shouldn't accumulate too much.
ReplyDeleteThe cards are so cute. You put so much work and effort into them. I sent 87 cards this year! I really need to cut back, the postage is getting ridiculous.
Since we moved into the RV and with COVID, we've been ordering a LOT from Amazon too. We needed so many gadgets for the trailer to live permanently here. Gauges, hoses, insulations stuff, whoozits and whatzits galore! :-) Plus I don't like to go to the stores to pick things up anymore. And now I've found an Amazon delivery box system less than a block from the RV park. I used it yesterday for the first time and it's so easy. They text you that it's been delivered and give you a code. You just punch it in and the door opens automatically to the cubby your package is in. It's amazing. The only thing you touch is the keypad and then I used handsanitizer immediately. That's where we'll have all of our packages delivered from now on. So handy.
Wow. I'm sorry for babbling on so long. I think all of this alone time is getting to me. Have a great Thursday Deb.
Blessings,
Betsy

ReplyDeleteI think Amazon has been incredible . Truly! I am so excited that zach may get the vaccine in Mexico before we do! Phew! He's the busiest one and he does mask etc, but because he lives alone, he does go out more. Hurry vaccine come because this Momma worries
ReplyDeleteLucky puppy! You always make the best cards!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the finished sweater for Pup; it is very pretty! The cards have a nice touch with the stickers, too!
ReplyDeletePup looks great in her new sweater! I can't imagine making 35 (ahem... 38) of those cards! They are SO cute though.
ReplyDeleteI've been amazed at everyone's shipping this year. I've even had packages from China that were supposed to take 45 days arrive in less than 7 and several other things from companies that I order from frequently that normally take 10+ days have arrived in only 2 or 3. I think it's the one benefit to Covid.
