Countdown Calender

Here are all the pieces from the calender swap I joined. I still haven't got my cookie sheet together.... I guess there is always next year. Right?

Favorite Things Thank You....

I made this card with one of my favorite thing ATC's from my ATC swap. It was really quick to add just the ATC to the front of the card. Of course I could have spruced up the card itself a bit but I liked it just how it was.

Favorite Things...

No, this is not a list to bore you of all my favorite things. lol I joined a ATC swap and we were to make our favorite things ATC's. I decided to do my new favorite techniques. I love how they turned out. I did faux embossing with the stamped images from SU. Then on the middle image I did the cracked glass technique using clear embossing powder. It was a lot of fun!

Christmas Note Pad...

I saw the tutorial over at SCS awhile back and wanted to try my hand at making a few of these. I have officially completed one! Yeah. They are really easy I just haven't spent the time to sit down and craft period. I guess that is what happens when you can't stay away from work. Today is our Christmas "party." I hope it is a lot of fun. I pushed my way into helping. Hope I don't regret it! lol. I'll let you know how it goes. I have a couple surprises in store for everyone attending... hope they enjoy it!

Here is a pic of the book I made. I sent it along with the paint can to Lynette. I used the same paper so it would match.

Christmas Can Part 2...

Here is the can I made for Lynette. I really hope she enjoyed it. Very simple but I really like how it turned out. I glittered the snowflakes I cut out with my cricut. I had glitter everywhere. My vacuum cleaner was full of it when I got through! lol

Christmas Paint Can Part 1...

I participated in a paint can swap on the cricut MB over the last couple of months and just recently learned who was making a can for me... it was a secret (by my choice, I wanted a surprise!!). I have had so much fun with the ladies that participated it's sad thinking it is almost over. Anyway, here is the can Dawn made for me and the goodies she "stuffed" inside it too! (sorry the pics are a bit blurry--can't re-take them 'cause the can went to work to decorate my desk)



The goodies... including Stone Script Cricut Cartridge!!! WOW!

Dawn spoiled me! I am looking forward to getting to know her better now that the "secret" is revealed.

Thanks Dawn!

November Swap-a-Crop part 2...

For this month our theme was anything fall related and if we didn't have fall pictures we would scrap the persons pictures using fall colors. Well I didn't have to worry about not having "fall" pictures. I got these really cute pictures of this little boy at the pumpkin patch. You know the picture of those fragments I finally got to use??? Well this is what I used them on. I think they added just the right touch. Thanks for looking!

Christmas is right around the corner...

I made these tags for a friends Christmas exchange packages. I just love that Top Note Die so much that I just had to use it again. I also used the Snow Swirled stamp set from SU too! I think these would be perfectly placed on top of a brown package. So beautiful!

Have a wonderful day and stay warm.
