Holiday Card Making Party
It’s time to prepare for
Christmas Day…
The postman will soon
be on his way…
Handmade cards make one
squeal with glee…
Come create your holiday cards with me!
I finally had the card making party that I’ve wanted to have for years! I have always waited until the last minute to send out my cards. Not this year! They went out the first week of December!
It was so fun to fill my dining room table with friends and half the contents of the craft room from work.
I made a disposable table cloth out of a roll of kraft paper. I jazzed it up with oversized scalloped edge scissors.
One of the party favors was this gorgeous bag filled with crafting supplies. The bag is from my friends at Punch Studio that I found at Home Goods. Love it!
Here we are in action! What a beautiful mess.
A good time was had by all! Happy holidays everyone!

Hi Anna, What a great day with friends. Love the Santa too. I think I might have to make a stop at Home Goods this weekend. Merry Christmas to you. Can’t wait to catch you on HSN.

Who knew Anna could be so humble…her own gift bags at Target are much nicer and look great under the tree with the lights reflecting off of the glitter.

What a great idea, I’ll have to do this next year with my friends. Although, I would rather be invited to your card making party. How do I get on the guest list? Have a wonderful Christmas season and thank you for all the creative ideas you continue to bring to us. Donna O

Dear Anna,
I have been a fan of yours for a long time and just found out you have a blog. What a nice surprise!!! I am using your Christmas cards this year-they’re from a couple of years ago from Target. Red rick-rack behind the tree with dots-very cute! I always stock up and sometimes takes me a while to get to them! I use your papers often-they are just my style. THANK YOU and Merry Christmas!!!!

Anna Banana!
Well, I have thought about you soooo often since we saw one another in OCTOBER (!) I am a flake, what can I say?
I would love to chat with you, in this new year. I know you are busy, but if you get a minute, will you drop me a quick note?
Wish I could’ve been there for that “card party” you had – looked like a BLAST!
Happy New Year, dear one. Let’s be in touch soon and often!
