Lucky 44 Christmas Gift Tags

I’m living for these cute Christmas tags from Lucky 44. They are simple yet striking and don’t have a snowman/snowflake in sight which is good. While I love snowmen (and women) I’ve always felt weird about including anything snow related on cards or tags. Don’t get me wrong, I love the idea of a white Christmas. I love the idea of making snowmen in the front yard but Frosty wouldn’t last a hot minute before he melted into a puddle of Christmas ewww. What about you? What kind of Christmas will you be celebrating this year?

10 Christmas cards with an Aussie twist

It’s only 5 weeks until Christmas!

Christmas is my favourite time of year. As soon as the stores hang up their tinsel and fairy lights I start playing my Christmas playlist and start unpacking our Christmas decorations.

The way we celebrate Christmas is so very different than our friends in the northern hemisphere. It is generally hot, we spend a lot of time in the pool and we chow down on cold meats, salad and a big ‘ole pavlova.

As our experience is different it always seems a little weird to send cards depicting a white Christmas with snowmen and snowflakes and…well…snow! So I’ve tracked down a few Aussie Christmas cards that depict a Christmas down under. Enjoy!
