Having received some awesome birthday and belated wedding gifts over the last few weeks left me in desperate need of some good ol’ fashion Thank You cards.  Or not.  Never one to settle for average (well, most days anyway), I decided to try out CrafyPod’s Handwoven Greeting Card tutorial I had seen awhile back featured on craftzine.com.  I started out simple and got totally cute results.

Then I remembered one of my favorite balls of fancy yarn….

…and got fancy results.

And then I got bored with squares…

…and got some sweet results.

Always one to think ahead (or was it the snow showers due on Monday?), Christmas was next on my mind…

…with some festive results.

All in all, as much as I liked the fun shapes, I ended up going with more fancy yarn squares for my Thank You cards.

I covered the inside with some pretty maroon paper, dug out my favorite silver pen, and voilà!  Long overdue thank you cards ready for tomorrow delivery.

How hard do you think it’d be to weave a cornucopia?
