Cards! Christmas and Thank You’s!!

I am a big on sending Thank You notes. I think there is something so special about receiving a note in the mail. Receiving a pretty Thank You card is even more special, which is why I really love these flat, chevron, style cards.

Thank You note cards designed by Belle Announcements. The set includes 10 flat cards and 10 envelopes. Such a beautiful light turquoises blue in the chevron design. “Thank you” and the flower in the corner are in a deep turquoise blue.

Each design is printed on quality card stock and trimmed to 4.25 by 5.5. The edges of the cards are rounded. The entire effect is stunning. At $8.50 for 10 and free shipping these are a perfect Thank You card to have on hand! I know for me, having pretty paper to write on, makes it so much easier to write my Thank You’s!!

Next are these adorable little Bamboo Cow Gift Tags!! I can’t wait to add these to the gifts under the tree!! These are the cutest cards!! Printed on 2″ by 3.5″ Bamboo Cardstock. There is a design on both the front and the back. This set includes 10 gift cards with 5 red and 5 green envelopes. SO VERY ADORABLE!!!! $5.00 for the set. (I have to say it again….I love, love, love this little cow!! Must be the farm girl in me!!)

The cute little Owl Gift Tags were so adorable I used them as place cards at Thanksgiving. SO CUTE!!! You get 20 Owl Gift Tags. The cards are 2″ by 3.5″ and are printed on 110 lb linen cardstock. Envelopes are not included with this set. These are so cute and will be perfect under the tree!! 20 tags are $6.00

Belle Announcements uses real liquid ink. This means the ink soaks deeply into the cardstock for a rich finish vs a dry ink process that leaves dots in the colors.

These cards are quality, handmade perfection!!

I really love the amazing selection at Belle Announcements!! You owe it to yourself to take a look! I’d love to know your favorite!!

I’m Refreshing My Blog (and Exorcising Some Digital Ghosts)

Updating old blog content is like digital archaeology—except I’ve unearthed a full-on resident spirit: The Ghost of Peanut Butter and Whine.

This digital poltergeist has been causing absolute chaos behind the scenes. If things look a little haunted around here, here is the proof:

• The Vanishing Act: The ghost keeps deleting my best images and video tutorials, leaving behind sad, empty boxes.
• The Link Graveyard: It’s been sneakily stripping away my trusted brand partners and replacing them with sketchy “AI Crypto” links.
• Font Sabotage: Apparently trapped in 2001, it keeps reverting my clean layout back to “Geocities-era” antique fonts.

My 2026 Blog Refresh Plan

To banish these spirits and keep my traffic climbing, I’m launching a step-by-step exorcism plan:

1. Exorcise the 404s: Running a broken link checker to track down every dead end and missing image.
2. Modernize Recommendations: Swapping out outdated products for my absolute 2026 essentials.
3. SEO Deep Clean: Refreshing metadata and strategically placing focus keywords.

Stick Around Please!

Don’t let this be a “one and done” visit. While I’m cleaning house and banishing spirits, check out these (very much alive) links:

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner: Check out the sidebar for my current giveaway. I promise this one is fully alive, kicking, and ghost-free!

Earn Cash: Some things never go out of style. Rakuten still pays you to shop, and in this economy, who is turning down free money?
