Just when you think there's nothing new, there is

For the first time, I bought some cute dimensional Christmas cards. I thought I'd get started on my card list this evening. I filled out 2 of the cute cards out and to my dismay, discovered the cards don't fit in the envelopes! I had some cards and envelopes put away, so I went through those and found enough envelopes for all of the cards. What a world.

to get the first two cards into the envelopes they came with. After a long struggle, I got the cards jammed in, but I thought that it was really taking the fun out of the particular holiday tradition. lol
