Nov to AmyG, Cindy, Kate, Janet and Nanski

I promise, this is the last of the little houses. I took these 3 days to post all of them. If you are annoyed at looking at them day after day - just be grateful that I didn't give each of them their own day - that would have been 26 days. 


AmyG's would have been better if the name was lower. I had two of the cryptologist stamps left. They went to Cindy and Kate. In June, when I did the first 4 envelopes with the little houses, most of them had that stamp. The tiny lettering on the stamp is so perfect with the little houses. A couple people wondered how I got that lettering on the houses - not realizing that it was just part of the stamp. Now I'm curious if I could write like typewriter type.

You can see how it looks better to have the names a little lower than what I did on AmyG's


Saving the best for last, we have Janet and Nancy. They might not be the best - but I do love repeated impressions without re-inking. So these two are very pleasing - even though they have the ho-hum color theme. If I ever get more ink pads in colors - I'll do more of these little house envelopes. 


This concludes my Nov envelopes. Tomorrow we have the annual Christmas Eve story. It's not one of my favorites. The story is something that I am happy to share - but, I didn't figure out an angle that included the warm fuzzies that we long for during this season.

Here's a link to my all-time favorite Christmas Eve story. I get verklempt every time I think about what a joyful time I had on a cold November morning.
