Dear Thea,
 it's getting cold here now and as you can see I'm sporting a Santa Hat to keep warm! I know the folks in Calgary would be laughing; compared with the extreme minus temperatures they are getting there our Okanagan is still balmy...;-)
This message comes a bit out of schedule, but I promise it will be short and hopefully of some use to you!

Quick Christmas card: How to paint a candle
|
Hand-painted cards are always  a wonderful way to send distant loved-ones a holiday greeting. I like this quick candle image. With a bit of practice they are easy to do and look like a million bucks! Paint them on 4x3" cards (half the size of the regular painting cards) and glue on the front of a double-folded piece of card stock (final size 4x5.5"). You will still have room for a handwritten or stamped greeting. I promise, if you send me one, I will send you one in return! (My address is at the bottom of this email).
