Happy Weekend {+Downloads}

Can you believe this time next week it will be Christmas Eve? Eeeeeekkkkkkk. I probably shouldn't say that out loud - it might scare people away, but next week will be all about some hustle and bustle.  My family is doing something a bit different this year - in lieu of presents, we are each sending a package to a solider overseas via anysolder.com {thanks jacin for the great site!}.  All of us are pretty low maintenance when it comes to getting gifts, and this just seemed like a better way to use our resources. It's actually turned into a fun little family project! So in the spirit of giving, I thought I would do a round up of my favorite free downloads from this week...

First up, the ever so talented Brancoprata shared this darling download on the ever so lovely Naomi's blog Enchanted Dreams & Affairs.  Perfect for this next week of hustle and bustle!

I know a certain someone hosting a legendary cookie party tomorrow {so bummed I won't be there}, and these recipe cards from Paper Stories spotted on The Sweetest Occasion would be just perfect for the occasion!

While we are visiting The Sweetest Occasion, there is another download that is a must for this holiday season - the hostess card from Carolynn of Two Brunettes! I am a BIG fan of Carolynn and she actually just welcomed a new addition to the family this week!

Are your holiday cards sent out? Well, some of us aren't so on the ball. I actually just got mine in the mail yesterday and will start sending them out today.  If you are looking for a last minute idea, here is a nice little DIY card from Eat Drink Chic.

Happy downloading and happy weekend!
