First Snow

Good Morning!  Can you believe that Christmas is less than 2 weeks away??  It seems to creep up faster and faster every year.  I only have a couple small gifts left to get.  I have friends coming over Thursday and my family Christmas Eve so I will be busy getting ready for those things.  I love Christmas but hate the rushing around.  This weekend I actually went to the Mall.  The roads were jammed and the parking lot full.  Luckily for me the stores I bought things in were not crowded so I was in and out of them pretty fast.

This is the last challenge until January for Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.  The theme this week is First Snow. We have already had that here in the Northeast US  but normally we would be seeing it about now.  Thank you to everyone who joined us in the fun.  We hope to see all of you back next year.

I hope everyone has a Happy and Safe Holiday.

Happy Thanksgiving

Good Morning.   How is everyone doing?  I am busy.  I am really busy at work (which is good), I am trying to get Xmas shopping done so I am not out at the last minute,  at this time of year there are crafts fairs every weekend which I really can't miss and I still don't have my xmas cards done!

It is Tuesday so that means another wonderful challenge at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations!  This week we want you to make a Thanksgiving card.  I don't have alot of Thanksgiving images and I really wasn't in the mood to color a Turkey so I found this great image at  Saturated Canary Designs.  Isn't she adorable?  Once the card was done I tried to add Happy Thanksgiving but unless I made it so small you couldn't read it I just couldn't seem to fit it on the card so I chose one of my favorite sentiment stamps that I believe says the same thing.  In Everything Give Thanks is what Thanksgiving is about.

Snowflake Kisses


Good Morning!  Happy Tuesday.  I hope everyone had a good weekend.  Unlike last weekend mine was uneventful which was really nice.  Saturday, 2 of my sisters, my niece and I went into Boston to attend the Craft Festival they have every year.  We had alot of fun and I got some Xmas shopping done which is great.
Sunday, the town I live in had Halloween which was canceled due to the storm. 

This week we have a really easy challenge over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.  This week we want you to make a project having the Sentiment as the main focus.  This gave me a great chance to use alot of my dies.  I used the snowflake border die from Memory box, the individual snowflakes from My Favorite Things and the corner sizzix die I have been eyeing and finally got on clearance at Michaels.  I was in the mood to use glitter as you can tell.  Get out those sentiment stamps you have and play along!!!

Autumn Beauty

Good Morning! For me it is a very Great morning!  We had a snow storm here in the Northeast US last Saturday.  All in all it would not be something to write about but since it is still Autumn here the leaves had not fallen off the trees so with the added weight of the snow it was a disaster.  Tree's fell and Branches cracked off.  This caused a major electrical issue and I, unfortunately, was one of the people who suffered.  I lost my electricity Saturday around 7:00 PM and didn't get it back until last night about 5:30 PM.  Not only was it cold (Wed AM I woke up and it was 28 degrees) I had to throw out all the food in my fridge, didn't have hot water for showers, and since I work from home I spent all week bringing my computer and cell phone to relatives homes, local wifi spots (most of which were closed due to also not having power).  Since there were so many people suffering as I was everyplace (including the relatives) was mobbed and crazy.  It was so nice to watch TV last night, not having to sleep with many blankets and in warm clothes, have a nice hot shower and have coffee waiting for me.  The company I work for is happy to have me back putting more time in working than running around trying to find someplace to log in.  All in all a wonderful morning!!!!!

Since any internet time I could find had to be spent working I was not able to post my card for this weeks challenge at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations.  The theme this week is Pumpkins!  I love this stamp.  It looks like a beautiful table decoration for the upcoming Thanksgiving holidays.

Spooky Birthday

Happy Tuesday.  I hope you had a great weekend.  I got together with some stamping friends and had a blast.  We spent the day making cards, eating and laughing.  It was a great escape!! 

I don't know about you but I love digi stamps and paper.  They are easy to use, don't take up space in my craft room and are convenient.   This made this weeks challenge over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations so much fun for me.  All you need to do is make something using a digi stamp and digi paper.   I used a stamp from Make it Crafty and the paper is from Barely Mine.

Kristen is also giving away a prize.  All you need to do is leave a comment on Going Grey with Scrap-Creations with your 3 favorite digi companies, #1 being your favorite.  The following week she will pick a winner and they will win a $10.00 GC to that company!!  How cool is that!!  Get out those Digi's and join the fun!  You could win!!

Fall Leaves

Happy Tuesday!  I would say Happy Autumn but it is really muggy here in the Northeast.  I thought we had gotten rid of this weather but it is back.  The end of the week it will be gone and I can't wait.  Just because it doesn't feel like Autumn doesn't mean I am not in the mood for Autumn cards.  I love my new Tim Holtz die with leaves, branches and acorns.  I am having so much fun with it.  I want to use it on every card.

Today is Tuesday so that means we have another great challenge over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations This week's theme is Let's hear it for the girls.  We also have a wonderful sponsor, The Digi Garden.  They were kind enough to let us pick a digi to play with and I thought this little lady would be alot of fun to play with.  Isn't she cute!

Happy Halloween

Good Afternoon.   I am late posting my challenge card this week because I was away.  My sister and I just got back from 4 days at a wonderful spa.  I love being pampered and this place is really good at it.  Every room has a view of the ocean, the food is wonderful and, of course, the spa is excellent.  Now I am back to reality but I still have a couple days off before going back to work.

This week our challenge at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations is to make a card with a unique fold.  I decided to try something I have never done before.  This is a Center Step card.  It was a lot easier to make than I thought it would be.  We also have a great sponsor this week.  It is Di's Digi's!!!  The are the most adorable images.  She was nice enough to let us each pick out an image to play with.  I loved this little bear dressed as a witch.
