I normally don't do these because I stress about WHO I will be able to send it to (I am a very shy person and always worry I am bothering someone with things o this nature-so I don't do them) BUT I have decided that I am doing this one and if you would like to play along, copy and paste this list to your blog and let me know in the comments on this post I LOVE reading these things and would LOVE to read yours.

Sussies December Reveal

Where is this month GOING?? I can't believe how much I still have left to do but I DO see the light at the end of the tunnel, so I will keep my head up and keep plugging away. In the meantime, I have this beautiful Scrapbook Sussies December kit to share with you, which showcases Crate Paper & American Crafts Seasonal Lines.

This kit was perfect to showcase my photos of our family made wreck of a Gingerbread house.

Oh Christmas Tree!

I am SO excited to post my first DT assignment for Imaginisce. I had a ball playing with these papers, the colors and patterns are So 'me'! These first 3 projects are all using the Polar Expressions line. I am sneaking in one more using the Let's Roll Line.


Products used-Polar Expressions: paper, ribbons, rubons, chipboard

Journalling: Whenever you encounter a Christmas Tree, it's always the same. You start singing 'Oh Christmas Tree!' and start decorating it (even if it already has decorations). This pic was taken at Daddy's Christmas party, the night of the Santa Claus parade.

Altered wooden frame (3x3") using Polar Expressions rubons, cosy sticker stackers, paper.

Anyone who knows me, knows my Little Man LOVES trains, so I HAD to do a LO with the Let's Roll line. It's so fun and playful. It will be easy to use up every last piece of this line.

Thanks for popping in! Have a Happy Wednesday!

Dec 1!


The holidays are SO busy! I went to the US with some VERY FUN ladies and did some shopping on Black Friday, I have been decorating, catching up on scrappy assignments and dealing with a sick Little Man (just a VERY LENGTHY cold-nothing serious). I am sorry I have neglected my blog for so long, so I am hoping to post at LEAST a project a day (some might be a bit older than others) until the 24th (let's see if I can stick to it)-LOL. I was unpacking my C-mas decorations last night and came across this project I did 2 years ago, I STILL love it. Imagine THAT! I am glad that I picked classic colors and patterns. That might be the trick when making Christmas decorations. Check it out and stop back later today, LIITD is having a blog hop! (I love these things!)

Only 24 more sleeps!
