Get a Head Start on Christmas 2009!
I know, you probably groaned when you read that title, but I am a big fan (and I know there are others out there) of taking advantage of "After-Christmas" sales, especially since our economy is not so wonderful these days. I confess that on New Year's Eve, since the library was closed, I was one of those folks visiting our local craft stores and hunting for bargains for next year's holidays. I did find some wonderful deals on Christmas papers, both scrapbook and decorative, as well as on materials to make Christmas cards. So...now that you have taken advantage of these sales, what will you do with all of the goodies you have purchased? Try getting a jump start on Christmas 2009 with Papercrafts for Christmas: Making Cards and Decorations by Judy Balchin and Polly Pinder. The book has stunning pictures of the completed projects, as well as easy-to-follow directions for even the novice crafter!
