There's A Skeleton in the Christmas Closet!

I hope you are enjoying an absolutely WONDERFUL Christmas Day with your family and friends!!! I am!!! I wanted to quickly share a Christmas project that I finished up last night! Nothing like last minute holiday crafting! LOL!


Skeleton in the Christmas Closet

Isn't it just fun?!!! I had a blast creating this piece!



The skeleton is a collection of fabulous Samantha Walker for Unity stamps called Bones About Halloween. Yes, I realize they were INTENDED for Halloween, but I think they make GREAT Christmas stamps! Heee!!!!



So, I hope you have a TRULY fabulous Christmas!!! AND...a Happy New Year, too!

Merry Christmas To All...and to all....

...a good time blogging! Oh...wait...is that not how that goes? Oh, well....it suits my purposes at the moment! HA! I just wanted to drop in with a quick post today. I didn't get anything created, but I do have a project that I plan to finish before Christmas and get posted! I hope you and your family have a WONDERFUL Christmas! And...I hope you get a visit from caroling gnomes. Because that would make ME happy...I'm figuring it would probably make you happy, too. Just say'n. Heee!!!

Merry Christmas!

Just Say'n.

Jingle Out!

It's Wednesday...My Workspace is insane, as per usual, BUT I did get some happy mail!

Well, it is officially What's on Your Workspace Wednesday and, quite frankly, mine is it's usual disaster. As my Christmas gift to all of you, I am going to spare you a picture of the mess! HA! However, I do want to show you a few things that are ON my workspace at the moment! YUP! FUN STUFF all around!

I had the chance to participate in a Secret Santa swap over at Lillyella and just LOOK at the wonderful package that the fabulous Emmeline sent to me!



Can you SEE all those fabulous little bits and bobs? I am SO excited! And LOOK!!! JINGLE BELLS!!!! Perfect! Just say'n.



AND....then there is this FABULOUS card! I know...I shouldn't say that about my own work...all that humility mumbo jumbo and such, but I DO REALLY love this one!



The gorgeous bird stamp is from Scrolls Work and I colored it with Prismacolor pencils. The papers are all Cosmo Cricket and the ribbon is CTMH.



So...that's what's on my workspace right now! As per usual for the week prior to Christmas, life is crazy, insane, and hectic with a whole lot of fun mixed in! I hope you are having a fabulous week!

Happy WEDNESDAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Sisters and Christmas...fun stuff! {Wordless Wednesday}

You're Such An Angel! Sketch Tuesday at Skipping Stones Design!

Yup! I'm talking to you! You are SUCH an Angel! Especially those of you who are awesome and visit regularly and those of you who comment! I love my blog readers, I really do!



I created this card using this week's sketch over at Skipping Stones Design! I used the brand new Brrrrthday set! I love the winter images in this set that let you use it for ALL KINDS of great cards! Not every winter card has to be holiday related! YAY!!!



The papers are from the Mitten Weather collection by Cosmo Cricket. I love them!!!!



Oh...and an update on yesterdays holiday panic...I accomplished a major gift task yesterday, so I am feeling a *tad* bit better on that front. Now I just have to hope it is actually WANTED! HA! I'm fighting off an ear infection, but the fight seems to be working, so that's good. AND...today I'm wearing cute dark jeans with a short grey knit skirt and my favorite Etsy/American Apparel tee over a long sleeve tee with my zebra Madden flats so I'm pretty much happy. It's amazing what an outfit you love can do to your mood. Just Say'n! Anyway...Happy Tuesday before CHRISTMAS!!!!

Today I am linking with the following parties:

Have You Finished Your Christmas Shopping?

'Cause, I totally haven't. No, for reals, you guys, this is serious. I'm sort of in panic mode. I don't have a lot of gifts to buy, but the ones I need to buy are sort of important ones. *sigh* 'Tis the Season! HA! BUT...I am having super lots of fun creating cards, still, so that's a good thing!



This is a super fun card created with Echo Park papers and a SUPER fun Scrolls Work Stamps image! It's called Santa's Suit Set and it comes with the jacket I used here and Santa's hat and boots, too!



I colored his jacket with...wait for it.... SHARPIE! Yup! That's how I got that beautiful vibrant red! I love it! Then I added silver paint pen to his belt buckle and finished his trim with some Stickles! And...I don't know if you noticed, but I went a little old school and used some of my shaped eyelet stash on this card, too! I love the way they look!!! So fun!

Sooooo....now that I made this adorable little card with Santa's adorable little coat...he's gonna show up and take care of the rest of my shopping, right? Right. K. Good. I feel better now! HA! Have a fabulous Monday!

A Scrolls Work Poinsettia Card and a WINNER!

I know I don't usually post on the weekends, but with all of these cards, I just HAD to share them before Christmas!!! So, here is one I created using the Scrolls Work Mirrored Poinsettias! These are SO pretty! I loved giving them the fabulous colors! I colored them with Prismacolor pencils after stamping with Momento ink.




I accented the card with gold glass glitter! Have I mentioned how much I'm in love with this stuff? 'Cause I'm pretty much totally and completely in love with this stuff. Just say'n.




Yup. Love. For reals. Complete and Totally. Just say'n.




ALSO...I wanted to announce the winner of the Sew Mama Sew giveaway! The winner is.....
