Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays!

Hard to believe that Christmas is right around the corner!

The kids finish up school today and then have a bunch of stuff going on tomorrow!

This holiday season has been so much fun with all the parties and get to togethers!

We are anxious to get to my brothers for the holiday...we can't wait!

I whipped a couple of presents for coaches and teachers.

While I love gift cards, I love to give something homemade with it!

This year I opted to make a Candy Cane Dip.

Oh my is it super easy and fabulous!

I made a jar topper and then a tag to go with it.

I forgot to take pictures of the Christmas cards... silly me!

I wish each and everyone of you a wonderful holiday season with your family.

I will see you back in 2013!

 

Papertrey Princess Challenge

Dianne over at Bizzy Bee Creates posted the latest challenge for the Papertrey Princess Group.

Her challenge was to use RED. 

Well one of my favorite colors to work with is red, so this was awesome! 

 I also love the card Dianne posted, red and Kraft look awesome together.

Here is the link to the challenge:

Once I started to get creative with this challenge, I opted to make a Christmas card.

I wanted to use my Iconic Images, as a background stamp.

I then used Tree Trimming Trio and Peace be Still to complete my look.

I am so thrilled with how it turned out!

Enjoy...thanks Dianne for such a great challenge!

Here is my final card for Christmas.  I made this card for my 16 year old niece who will much appreciate a girly card and the gift card inside even more!

Happy Holidays to you and your family.

Christmas Cheer

Here is a great Christmas card I made for my nephew.  He is 16 and while he does appreciate a gift card at Christmas time, he would much prefer a more masculine looking card!  How can you go wrong with green and red and just a simple message.  Enjoy!

Holiday Greetings

I have not had a lot of time in my craft "space" since we have been so busy wth our house but I did manage to make some cards for the kiddos teachers.  I love this Trimming the trees set because I can decorate it!  So cute!  Enjoy!
