Have a safe and Happy New Year's Eve

The card - snowflakes are from SU.  The small panel is popped up on the embossed panel.  Colors are Indigo and smoky slate.

Didn't plan on having to shovel snow this morning, but it looks like that's going to be my first job!  Then I have a few errands to run, so it looks like I will have to venture out in the cold today.

Have a terrific day!

The card - snowflake are from SU.  I stamped them in a variety of colors, added some ribbon, some bling and a sentiment.  Pretty darn easy!

I saw this saying on facebook a few days ago and it pretty much sums it up right now:  I don't know if I've got some free time, or if I just forgot what the hell I'm supposed to be doing.  I guess I'll just go with the flow and enjoy the 'quiet time'.

Have a great day!

The card - just some snowmen stamped on an embossed panel.  I added just a bit of color here and there with markers.

Not a lot happening today.  It is my daughter-in-law's birthday so I am going to their house for dinner tonight.  And I do have a couple of errands to do.  But......I guess I really should think about straightening up the garage - there's still Christmas decorations kind of scattered all over.  Hmmm...maybe.

Have a terrific day!

Project Sunday - this is the pottery bowl that I painted last week when Eileen and I went to Angelos.  It was so much fun we're going again!

That's the plan for today I think.  We're going to breakfast and then we're off to Angelos to paint another 'masterpiece' - haha!  But, I was actually pleased with the way my bowl came out so I want to try another one in a different color combination.  

A disclaimer:  the picture from yesterday is NOT my house.  I was lucky I got one strand of lighted greenery put out on my front porch - even on normal years I don't have much in the way outside lights - I have no outside electrical outlet, so I'm limited as to what I can do!  That was just one of the houses we saw on our tour of the Christmas lights on Christmas Eve.

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Saturday - Christmas lights

I hope everyone had a marvelous Christmas.  We had a very nice Christmas and it was also a very white one - it snowed off and on all day.  Very pretty - but lots of shoveling.  And of course it's very cold.  I plan on staying indoors today and actually taking down the Christmas decorations.  I am feeling the need to get back to some sort of 'normal'.

Have a great day!

Wishing you

love and happiness!

Merry

Christmas

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The background splotches are smoky slate, the snowflakes are black.  The trees are stamped with honey and black, punched out and popped up.

Only fun stuff to do today!  Eileen and I are going to breakfast in a bit, then a little shopping.  Jeff, Sara, Sara's Mom and I will be going to dinner tonight and then a drive around town to look at Christmas lights will finish off the evening.  Looking forward to a fun. relaxing day and evening!

Have a wonderful Christmas Eve!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  I embossed the trees with white on navy.  The background speckles are just stamped with white ink on the navy.  The sentiment is embossed with white on smoky slate.

A few last minute things to take care of today - have a few gifts to wrap, a stamping mess to clean up and then I think I'm ready for just having fun!

Have a great day!

The card - I used the woodland embossing folder from SU - embossed the piece of kraft, then sponged some white on top and stamped a few snowflakes here and there with white.

Time for a haircut today, need to make more peanut brittle and then I'm having dinner out with a friend tonight.

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  I stamped the trees in green, then sponged just a bit of marina mist below the tree line.  I stamped before I embossed!

Just a couple of errands to do today and a couple batches of peanut brittle to make.  It really feels like there's something important that I'm forgetting to do - hmmmm - I hope not!

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - finished this pillow yesterday.  

I got my Christmas cards done and finished the pillow for a gift so today I get to play.  My friend Eileen and I are going to breakfast and then we're either going to paint some pottery or do some stitching.  Yay - a little fun is called for :)

Have a terrific day!

Photo Saturday - some scenery from Utah

Need to finish up a Christmas gift today, make some more peanut brittle and hopefully do my Christmas cards.  Hmmmm.....that sort of sounds like yesterday's list.  Well, maybe I will actually get it done today!

Have a great day!

The card - tree and background embossing folder are from SU.  The strips are cardstock.  The tree is stamped, punched out and popped up.

Whew - I think the parties are over.  I just have one more gift to make and a few more batches of peanut brittle to make and then I will be ready!  Oh yeah, I still have Christmas cards to do too.  Looking forward to a relaxing Friday night crafting with Emily and Deb.

Have a terrific day.

The card - some grunge and a sentiment.  Found this old, old, stamp in a drawer and decided I should make a card with it :)

Tonight is our Shoebox Club Christmas party.  Need to get the house picked up, finish a gift and prepare some food.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - a little grunge from SU , a sentiment and a couple of snowflakes punched out (from Martha Stewart).  

I ended up getting a lot of little errands done yesterday - yay!  Now I have a totally free day today, so hopefully I can keep the momentum going and finish up a bit a shopping and make it to the post office.  That's my goal anyway!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - some how this one looked better in real life......but, it is what it is.   Just some trees stamped on some printed paper with a sentiment.  Easy peasy.  

Had a lunch today but it got cancelled, so now I have the day to get some chores done.  And I need to get ready for class tonight.

Have a wonderful day.

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The background is printed paper.  The trees are stamped on the small square with kraft, the square is popped up.

Another Christmas get together here tonight.  That means I need to get my house cleaned up and a food dish prepared.

Have a great day!

Photo Sunday - on the Colorado National Monument

Looks like I had no idea what day it was yesterday - duh.  Oh well, that's just the way it is these days :)  I do know today is Sunday and it's time for Black Sheep Sunday.  So, I will be meeting Deb for breakfast in just a bit and then we'll be spending the day stitching.  It's the Christmas Party for Black Sheep too, so it should be a fun day!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The trees on the punched circle are stamped with black and smoky slate.  Another super simple one.

Hmmm.....I still don't have those darn class projects done.  I got totally sidetracked yesterday and ended up making 3 batches of peanut brittle.  At least the day wasn't a total waste :)  But, today I really do need to figure out those projects!

Have a terrific day!
