Have a safe and happy New Year's Eve!

The card - stamped images are from SU.   The snowflakes are stamped with lagoon and smoky slate.  Strips across the bottom are washi tape.

I think it's time to work on getting the Christmas decorations taken down and put away.  I picked up a few new winter/snow decorations yesterday so that might help motivate me to get this stuff in some sort of order.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The snowflakes are stamped with indigo, soft sky and smoky slate.  The sentiment is stamped with indigo, punched out and popped up.

Hmmm....I had planned on going to the grocery store first thing this morning.  Now, it looks like I need to go out and shovel snow.  Ugh!   I may put off the grocery shopping.....guess I'll wait and see how the streets are a little later.

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - wool applique done on linen background - this was another one of my all time favorites

Today is my daughter-in-law Sara's birthday, so we are meeting for brunch later this morning to celebrate.  Then I probably should think about getting the suitcase unpacked and the laundry done.  And maybe even starting to take down the Christmas decorations - we'll see how ambitious I am!

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Saturday - it was a beautiful white Christmas....

On our way home today - can only hope the snow has been cleared from the roads!

Have a terrific day.

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Snowflakes are stamped with kraft, an added strip of patterned paper, some twine and some bling.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas day yesterday.  We had a beautiful white Christmas here in Denver, and it's still snowing.  Brrrr!  Just another day of hanging out.

Have a terrific day!

Wishing you all 

a very

Merry Christmas!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The background is sky, the branches are stamped with indigo.

And we're off on our way to Denver.  We'll be spending the next few days with my daughter-in-law Sara's family on the eastern slope.  

Have a safe and happy Christmas Eve.

The card - trees are from SU, stamped with smoky slate, punched out and popped up.  Background embossing folder is also from SU.  Colors are white, smoky slate and navy.

Not much happening today.  I need to make another batch of peanut brittle and do the last bit of laundry.  Other than that it's just a matter of figuring out what clothes to pack for our trip to Denver tomorrow.

Have a terrific day!

The card - no stamping on this one.  The snowflakes are a Martha Stewart punch and the Peace is a die cut.  A super easy one.

Off to a Dr's appointment, then have a couple of errands to do.   Hopefully I'll find what I need,  but I'm looking for a birthday present for Sara (my daughter-in-law) and a white elephant gift so who knows how long that will take :)

Have a wonderful day!

Project Sunday - a pillow (14 x 28) I finished last week for a gift.  This one has probably been one of my all-time favorites.  Really liked the saying on it!

I'm done with Christmas parties - too much fun!  Now I have a few days to just relax and enjoy the season before we head to Denver for Christmas.  I do have a couple errands left to do but will avoid the mall today and save them for tomorrow.  Probably should think about doing some laundry but  I woke up this morning with a stuffy head and sore throat - so not feeling too ambitious - hoping that goes away :)

Have a great day!

Photo Saturday -  another one of Jeff's photos - on Grand Mesa

Lots to do this morning.  Since we're going to be spending Christmas in Denver next week with Sara's family we are having our family Christmas here today.  That means I need to get the gifts wrapped and lunch started.

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The branches are stamped with mossy meadow on the background.  I stamped the pinecones on a seperate piece of white, cut them out and popped them up.  (sorry, they don't show up very well in the photo).  

Off this morning for some last minute shopping and then to the grocery store.   Hopefully I can find what I need fairly quickly, because I need to have time today to make some peanut brittle too.  Looking forward to some Friday night crafting with Emily.  (we'll miss you Eileen and Deb :)

Have a great day!

The card - I stamped a bit of greenery in the background then added the candles on top.  The candles are just strips of embossed cardstock and the top was made by cutting a heart punch in half.  Colors are lagoon and smoky slate.

Christmas Party tonight - that means I need to get my house in order.  I managed to make quite a mess with my sewing yesterday - but, I got all the finished applique pieces made into pillows or framed.  Yay!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The card and the panel are both kraft, sponged with some white.  The top panel is matted with espresso and popped up.

I never did get any sewing done on Saturday, so now it's a must today.  There's gifts that have to be finished by tomorrow.  So, that's what I'm doing today.

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are soft sky and white.

It's time to get some shopping done - ugh!  Not really in the mood, but the weather is supposed to get bad in the next couple of days so I better get out and get some stuff done while it's not so bad.  I like it better when I know what I'm looking for, but this time it's go look and try to figure out what to buy.  hmmmm....should be interesting.

Have a great day!

The card - tree is from SU.  I stamped the tree several times across the panel, sponged a little white at the bottom and added some snow by stamping  a 'grunge' stamp in white.

So many things to get done this week - I don't even know where to start.   I better figure it out though or I'll end up wasting the whole day - and that would not be good!!!

Enjoy your day!

Project Sunday - a small framed snowman that I finished last week

Off for a day of stitching ....yay!  It's Black Sheep Sunday and we're having a bit of a Christmas party too so it should be extra fun!

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Saturday - a little night photography from Jeff at Mesa, Colorado

Oh my, today has to be a sewing day.  I have a bunch of stuff that has to be put together - made into pillows, etc.  It's not my favorite part, so I tend to put it off.  But, I need to get them all done, so that's my goal for the day.

Have a great day!

The card - tree is from SU, stamped in smoky slate, punched out and popped up.  Strips of color are washi tape.  Background is soft sky.

Not sure which direction I'm headed today.  So much to do I can't decide which needs to be done first.  Looking forward to our regular Friday night crafting though.

Have a great day!
