Mailing Packages

      In case you didn't know, yesterday was the LAST day to mail Christmas packages at regular rates within the US via the Postal Service if you want them to be there on time.  Up to the 19th, you can pay the higher fees for rapid deliveries, and you can also pay the astronomical prices for overnight delivery if you want to wait until the 23rd.  Personally, I decided to send my cards and packages last week.

     But, I'm also very aware that this gal from Bugaboo Stamps understands how mailing Christmas packages actually works!  This card is for Day 5 of the Holiday Chaos at Catch the Bug and the theme is "Humor Us."  This one was fast and easy to make with only the image, a glitter paper scrap, and a bow.


Colored w ProMarkers including Metallic Gold 
Cut w Unbranded cross-stitch die
Glittery gold paper
Satin, polka dot bow, hand-tied
Red card base

Great card NanaConnie. This is a particularly apt sentiment this year. I posted a card to Greece in March which finally got there in August. So yeah, the post office is doing a better than usual job of losing mail!
I like the extra interest with the sparkly gold paper through the centre of the card.
