Hey guys!  How are you?!? As you know if you are a follower of my blog I totally ADORE progressive challenges!  And the last one that I needed to do for the month of November is the great  Gerda Steiner Designs . Because I played last month I got the fabulous set free for this month!  And it's sooooo cute!!!  Just perfect for Christmas.  I decided to make a card in Non traditional colors of Christmas.  I've been doing lots of those recently and loooooove it!

Hello!  Another post that I didn't preprogrammed... Yesterday I was tired.  But got some goodnight sleep and feeling better today!  And we are finally seeing some sun which is something that we haven't seen much lately here.  That also probably helps my mood even if there's snow on the ground lol OK so I'm here to share with you a little card that I have made with the fabulous set from  Doodle Pantry  it's called Charlie Sledding . I had fun playing with the fabulous precolored image.  They really do make your life so much better for the fast Christmas cards!!!

Hello!  It's time for a new challenge over at  Digi Choosday .  And the theme for you guys is Presents and gifts. So in my case I thought the theme would mean to show some presents and gifts on the creation.... Therefore I used the great image  Angel Pressies  that you can also find as part of the great set  Angelberry Christmas .   I used some papers and some embellishments from the fabulous  Work and Play 5 Festive Hollybobs .  I printed the presents twice so that I could pop it up with some foam.  The sentiment is also from that set.

Hello!  I'm here to remind you about the challenge over at  Path of Positivity .  This time it's about Gratitude so perfect for this time of year! The fabulous sponsors are: ,  ,  and   For my make I used a great image from Digistamps 4 Joy called Lillies for you . There are so many different reason why we should be grateful.  And sometimes it's for the smallest details in life that we take for granted!

This will be a short post... not feeling to good today :(  And it's snowing so that's not helping my mood any.... But it shows that it's the time to do cards for Christmas because it's fast approaching (that also is not helping my mood lol) Anyway I wanted to share with you what I did for the latest Christmas progressive challenge over at  Digi Stamps 4 joy . This time around the images were some tags.  So  I used a great sentiment from  Create with TLC  on one of them and put a little sticker on the other to make it pop a bit more.

Hello!!!!  It's time for the great blog hop of  Create with TLC  and I'm the 1st stop along the way!!!  You are in for a fabulous ride as Paulette is always so generous!!! So for my make I used the fabulous Buggy ride to Grammas Vintage.  I thought it was perfect to make a little card that could be sent to my mom :)  well she's a grandma... hee hee hee The paper was part of a scrap pack that I got at AC Moores this summer.  I  thought it was perfect for this.  I used my Benners framelits dies from Stampin Up.  I used my nesting rectangle and my nesting doily rectangle from Quickutz.  I added some lace as well and a little metal embellishment from my stash as well as a little brad from Eyelet outlet. Here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics.  The sentiment is also from  Create with TLC And here's the image for you!  Don't forget to thank Paulette for her generosity!!!! You can just right click on it to save. Your next stop alon

I needed a little thank you card!  And I really wasn't too sure what I would do for it... someone from work sent me a great letter with a coupon for a sale that I love even if I'm not at work!!!!  It touched me soooooo much that she would take the time to do that even if I wasn't there!  And that they were still thinking of me! So yeah... back to what to make... and then I saw the latest challenge of Dilly Beans which was  Thankful  and since I love participating in that challenge I thought it was perfect. So here's my card very minimalist.

Today was a rough day... .I decided to get out of the house to go and mail a package... it took me forever just to gather the courage to go and do this... To realize when I got there that the post office is closed for Memorial day :/ So now this has to be done again.... man... lol Anyway... I decided to make a few cards easy ones mind you just to change my mind.... I had one that I had been wanting to do ever since I got the fabulous spot on the RSD Elite Team woohooo!  So excited!  And I had ask for Paulette's help in having some sentiments that would go with the more darker type of image that RSD does have :)  Here's the great set that was done by  Create with TLC   I'm sure that if you are into Creepmas... or have a darker sense of humor you will appreciate this one  Creepy Scary Seasons So for my 1st make as part of the RSD Elite team I used the great Sad Frosty that you can find as part of rubber stamp set  now  but you have to be part of the club over at  Smeare

Hello everyone!  I'm here to share some pretty awesome news :)  I was invited to join in  Top Tip Tuesday .  Now if you follow my blog you know that I don't do tutorials... but I can give some tips :)  So that's what I'll be sharing if I have some!!!! For this challenge the sponsor is the great  Stamp and create Totally love that store!!!  So many goodies!!!!  The paper that I used for my card came from that great store!!! My TIP for you today because I'm using a stamp set from  Cuddly Buddly  is the following.  Use a mouse pad (can be an old one) under your paper when you are stamping.  It helps to give a clear stamped image! So here's my card with the very cute  Jolly Santa set
