That beats the heck out of that sale price boxes of cards I've been mailing out that I picked up at CVS a while ago. Very very nice!

So you bring that to a printer and get it copied? How much does that cost to do? Just curious.

That is absolutely fantastic. Your wife should be very proud. As woodworkers, we sometimes forget that there are other media to work with other than wood. Whether we are working in red oak, or in acrylic paint, it is an expression of who we are and what we love to do. Your wife is very talented. (when should I expect my card?)

Very KEWL!!! My wife does some cards using "Stampin' Up!" stamps. It certainly adds a personal touch to the Christmas card for sure...

Hi Bill,

This is a picture of the card with my camera. At this time we send the pictures to Costco online, and have cards printed. It costs about .79 per card including the envelope. It's difficult to get small quantities of anything printed cheap in the U.S. I think most any cards found in the stores were printed in China or somewhere out of the U.S.

Right now I'm saving my dimes for a good proffesional quality printer.

Thanks for your input,
