Christmas spirit

It is no secret that I love Christmas. I love everything about it. This year I love it even more because I only have 2 more gifts to buy. I already know what they are I was just trying to spread out the $. What makes being alomost done so great is that I can really focus on doing crafts with the children and just spending time together. Since I am feeling the Christmas spirit I have made a little gift box to help with the wrapping part of the gifts.

Flu!

Yep. Fun for the whole family. Ha. I finally feel like getting up off the couch after 6 days. To celebrate our family's return to health we took a scenic tour ending in a picnic. The weather was perfect and the company was even more so. Here are some pictures. I went through only about half but here are some favorites so far.

Another layout

I love how versatile Core'dinations cardstock is. The vintage line is so unique. I find I am not using as much patterned paper because of all the looks I can get with this cardstock. Here is a layout I just did. I love these pictures. They are from a year ago! They are some of my favorite pictures.

November kit from Art Freckles!

Holy cow! Can you say gorgeous! I can't wait for the Christmas season as it is. Now I will have a gorgeous kit to use to scrap those memories!

Where did the time go?

Seriously? I have no idea how time got away from me. We spent last weekend hanging out with friends. Lots os fun. Fall festival's and bbq's :) I haven't even had time to download my camera! I have been going through the house bit by bit. Getting rid of things we don't need or use. I am tired of clutter. Next is the little boys room.

Here is a layout I made using the October kit from 3 Scrappy Boys. I will share the rest after the newsletter goes out :)



This was the last kit with Heather N as the owner. The new owner (also a Heather) will start back up with kits in December. She has shared the lines she has coming and I am so excited to play with my favorite companies.
