join the party.

hello and hip hip. you made it! and you look fabulous. thanks for coming. please come in, help yourself to a mug of apple cinnamon cider and mingle by the fire before the games begin. (yes sir, i like to play games at parties. call me old fashion.) i thought i might as well host a big bash celebrating the launch of the little project i've been working on.

we renovated my website and it's finally up and rolling! introducing martacards.com. i'm elated. i sketched some ideas, designed the pages, and happily handed it over to pete who jazzed it up and programmed all the behind-the-curtain bits. i am delighted, not only because it features arts + crafts that i often showcase on my blog, but i've also included some graphic design pieces pulled from my portfolio. i hope you'll take a look around. (yes, you can take your slice of pie with you.)

now, if you're up to it, onto the games. please comment and introduce yourself to the guests.

tell us
01. something you are known for.
02. two great blogs you read daily.
03. what the best part of thanksgiving is.

after you've met all of my nearest and dearest, exhausted the sweets buffet, and danced your heart out, i'll get you your wool peacoat (or did you have the down puffy jacket?). i'll wash up the big bowl you brought the chex mix in and remind you not to forget your party favor...



with every mini mart order placed today (and tomorrow, for you fashionably latecomers) i'll send along this Tag, You're It... Christmas Kit. the kit includes 6 holiday tags, silk ribbon & 3 yards of peppermint baker's twine. enjoy your gift favors. thanks again for ordering and have a wonderful weekend.

and while you're dusting the snowflakes off your car, i'll yell out, be sure to head over to kelly's happy li'l blog for the after party. xo.
