12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 11

Welcome to day 11!!
We are coming to a close end to our amazing hop! Thank you to everyone that has hopped along the whole time with us! We greatly appreciate your participation. If you are just joining us welcome!!!! You will want to start at the beginning with Lisa's Blog. If you are here from Pam's Blog you are in the right place.
Your next stop on the blog hop train will be to Teresa's Blog.

Apparently Blogger did not like my post from yesterday. So I will be sharing two projects with you today, the one from yesterday that was in the post that disappered and the one for today.

The project for day 10 was a simple card for a manager at work. It will have a corresponding ornament that I will show in todays project.


Today's project is my Manager Gift this year. Starting last year I made every manager an ornament for there tree's. I have decided that I wanted to do this every year for the managers that I work with. I make them a card that matches there ornament as well. I will have a video tutorial to post in Day 12 on how to make this ornament as well as a written post the day after this Blog hop is over. For anyone that would like to try to make this super simple and amazing card!






Until Next Time!!! :)

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 9

Welcome to Day 9! 

The hop is almost to the end. :( I will be sad to see it end. If you are hopping along and came from Pam's Blog you are in the right spot. If you just happen to stop by and see what I was up to today, then head on over to Lisa's Blog to start from the beginning to see all the amazing projects these ladies are doing! 
After me your next stop will be Teresa's Blog! :) 

Today I am sharing with you a page in my smash book that I just recently started. Since Christmas is my favorite holiday I did some stamping and a little journalling about Christmas for this year and left room for some pictures from this year. There isn't much decoration yet but I know I will be adding more once I get pictures from Christmas to add and will see how much more room I will have.
Here is the overview:
Here is what I wrote on the page:
On the top corner is says time for Cocoa! I love this stamp because every year on Christmas Eve we always went to my Grandma's house for Hot Cocoa and Pizza. That is how we always spent Christmas Eve. The past couple years that has changed but I will always remember that! 

Hope you enjoyed your time here! Until Next Time! :)

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 8

Welcome to day 8 and the first day of December! I can't believe that we will be in 2013 soon! Its all crazy about how fast the year has gone. If you are just joining in our hop don't forget to start at Lisa's Blog. If you are following along and came from Pam's Blog then you are in the right place. Your next stop will be over at Teresa's Blog. 

For today's project I wanted to showcase my present tags for the year. I always make my own tags for my presents every year. It makes everything have a homemade touch. I just made my small ones for this hop. 
They are all sprayed with my own homemade Glimmer Mists. Then I will stamp them with random stamps and add my To, and From on there and then they are done! Super easy! 
Here is one on a present already! 
Here is on that I would hang on a present hanging in my tree. 


Until Next Time. :)

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 7

Welcome to day 7!


If you are following along with us for day 7 of the 12 days of Christmas and came from Pam's Blog  you are in the right place!! Your next stop will be with Teresa's Blog. If you are just joining us then you should start back at the beginning with Lisa's Blog! 


Today I am share something a little different with you guys and if you have looked through my blog or are a regular here you know that I dont do LOs hardly at all so you all are in for a little treat! I am sharing a Christmas LO. This one is of our tree last year. For an extra special treat it contains my first attempt at journaling  I have never really been into journaling but my Best Friend journals a lot and I had attempted it. It wasn't horrible I have just never been fond of my hand writing.

After comparing them side by side now to take the pictures I have decided that I will be changing the journal spots to a black theme to match everything else. :) 
Here is the first page. (I am going to be adding some sparkles to the trees later)
Page two.
Here are the journaling spots if you would like to read them. 










Until Next Time :)

12 Days of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 6

Welcome to day 6! Halfway through the 12 days!  I can't believe it has already been six whole days since we started this hop!

Today I went Pink! I have a manager at work that loves pink so when I do her Christmas card I try to make her a special card each year! I do kind of feel like the card is missing something. I am not sure what it is, I know that I will figure it out sooner or later before I give it to her. You all can help and tell me what you think it might be... If I use your suggestion then I will throw in some blog candy for this post! Not sure what it will be at the moment but it will be amazing I know that much! :)



Until Next Time :)

Card Stitch Blog Hop


Welcome to the Card Stitch blog hop. You won't want to miss out on these amazing stitching projects!!! All these ladies have some amazing projects! There will also be amazing Blog Candy for this hop just in time for the holidays! If you are just joining us or decided to hop along after the 12 days of Christmas hop welcome and you will want to start here! 

For this hop I decided to stay with the winter them for today. Again I said in my earlier post that I love the blue background when it comes to snow, so with this card I decided to go with a dark blue. I used a CTMH stamp (not sure of the number right now) and my Colonial White ink to create this amazing Love never Melts card. I decided to do my stitching around all my elements instead of the whole card. Both my snowman and my sentiment are popped up to give it a little 3D feel to it!


I hope you enjoyed my project! Next you will be heading over to the wonderful Toyna.

Until Next Time! ^_^

Today I went with a little different take on the holiday season! I went with a Winter card. This one features two different stamp sets from Close to my Heart. I will get you guys the number later after work today. Anyways this is just a simple Let it Snow card. I send these ones as Christmas cards to my non Christmas friends to wish them Happy Holidays and Happy New Years. I love the blue backgrounds when it comes to making snow cards.  The let it snow banner is adhered with two teal brads. I realize now that they don't show up well in the picture! 

I hope that you enjoyed my project today! Don't forget to come back and visit!

12 Days Of Christmas Blog Hop- Day 2


Exactly one month until Christmas!


I can't wait til Christmas. How excited are you guys? I went Black Friday shopping this week and am now almost done with all my Christmas Shopping. :) 
If you are following along with us for day 2 of the 12 days of Christmas and came from Pam's Blog  you are in the right place!! Your next stop will be with Teresa's Blog. If you are just joining us then you should start back at the beginning with Lisa's Blog! 

Since today is one month until Christmas I decided to share a Santa Card with you guys today.
Inside:

 I made the Santa from Paper Piercing by Nikki. This was the first time I have ever done a project like this. It was a little different for me. I have never cut out the items to place together like this. It was interesting to try to fit the puzzle together.  It was a great learning process for me! I am looking forward to make more projects like this in the future! 

Until Next Time! :)

Autumn Blessings Blog Hop


Welcome to the Autumn Blessing Blog Hop!!! 

Thank you for joining us on this Wonderful day! If you are just checking up on me don't forget to start at the beginning at Lisa's Blog! 
If you are hopping along with us you should have came from Pam's Blog! 
Your next stop will be Tricia's Blog! 

Now on to the good stuff!!!!! I wanted to create something that truly just said fall. All too often we tend to forget fall and go straight to winter, same to be said about Thanksgiving. As soon as Halloween is over we tend to just skip straight too Christmas. I am very guilty of this. While I enjoy Thanksgiving I more look forward to black Friday. 

I wanted to make sure that I created something Fall that wasn't Thanksgiving or Christmas type. I took the idea from my CTMH catalog. It is one of the extra projects that you can do with the Clementine Workshop on the Go kit. While I did not have to buy the kit to make this all I had to buy was the paper and the embellishment it was a super fun card to make! It was also a first for me I have never ever used stick pins in any of my creations! I was super excited to be able to use something new in this hop! 




Until Next Time! ^_^
