It's Monday!!!!

You'all know what that means don't you? It is time for another Love to Create Challenge sponsored by QKR Stampede  and Dreariedolls.

I used an image from QKR and the title is Bundled Up..I just thought how I had bundled my kids up so many times when they were younger as we spent the largest portion of their childhood in Nebraska and often even Halloween costumes had to be bought to fit over the coats and mittens. Hope you enjoy and a very Happy Monday Morning to you :)

DCWV/Hampton Art Blog Hop

• • Hello and welcome to day one of the two-day DCWV and Hampton Art Holiday Hop! 

    
    

    DCWV and Hampton Art are two companies that go above and beyond to provide a wide selection of products from classic, to vintage, to trendy and modern. So, when we decided to team up it was only natural that we would want to show you some variety.

    
    

    Day #1 of our hop is all about vintage! Whether you are talking lace and pearls and soft weathered colors or distressed, grungy, and aged, if you love all things vintage we have some beautiful projects to show you today!

Craft Club December 2012

This is the final of a years worth of craft club meetings.  What happens is that we have 12 or 6 members each taking a month to sponsor/host making a meal for all and bringing an idea and base supplies for your craft that you are teaching. And BAM! It's chick night with food frolic /crafting ..can it get any better???? This December was at "Diane the Awesome" house/ compound and we had open pit BBQ and Dump cake in cherry and apple and smores and ...did i say cowboy soup ? Good grief! Thank you again Diane and Eddie. Diane supplied us with various cigar boxes and we went to crafting. This is my result as I had to take mine home half finished because I talked more than crafted..and ate..and then talked and laughed")

Love to Create Challenges "Anything Goes"

Okay we are up and running on this fine Monday morning and today over at Love to Create the theme is "Anything Goes" being sponsored by Sassy Studio . I created this first piece and am hoping to create an entire tag series for next year "because it is late in the seasonal game for me to be creating just about anything" :) Okay so before you ask my creation was made from gauze, copics, sizzix brick embossing plate, coordinations paper "sanded", metal embellishments and vellum. Enjoy and I hope to see more Christmas ghost by you next year ! ( I am trying to starting a trend)
