Hi Everybody!

So this post is about 2 things today.  Most of us subscribe to blogs and get the image sent to our email or Google Reader.  I am one of these people so I don't realize when someone has updated their blog look.  LIKE ME!  I just updated my blog with a christmas theme from Template Mama and just love her backgrounds!

Also, some mini blog candy over at Paula's Crafty Corner and this is an easy one to enter.  All you have to do is leave a comment on her blog.  I am just adding it to my post to let all of you in on it so this is not one of her stipulations.  Good luck everybody!

Sketch Saturday

I managed to squeek out 2 challenges on this one.  Sketch Saturday's sketch, which I turned sideways and Charisma Cardz wanted anything Christmas.  Woo!!  Love that!  This image is from the new release of Pink Cat Studio, I used Copics to color, 3bugsinarug "Let It Snow" dp, and glitter all over!

Diaper Fold

Jeepers I completely forgot about posting this until I just found it on my camera!!  LOL!  I went to my SIL's baby shower for little baby Meakin about a week ago and managed a cute little gift card holder.  I thought it was so funny cuz it's called a DIAPER FOLD!  I was a bit disappointed that my crackle on my "M" made my ink turn darker but it started out matching the green on the card folder.  It was my first one and slightly crooked but I have never folded diapers for any reason!  LOL! 

Baubles Sugar Nellie & Friday Sketchers

Ok here's my entry for the Friday Sketchers challenge.  I colored with Copics (duh), used last year's Basic Grey Figgy Pudding papers (OMG STILL LOVE THEM!), "Baubles" image from Sugar Nellie, my new Nestie (thanks mom & Simone) Labels 5, American Crafts sentiment rub on, MS border punch, EK Success leaf punch, Bo Bunny flowers, Basics Pearls, Quickutz snowflake punch, American Craft brad and Twinklets on my acetate snowflake punch.  Holi cow we use lots of stuff hey?  WOW!!  OH AND I once again used Spica's on the christmas balls and covered them with Glossy Accents.  Beautious if I do say so myself!  hee hee

Oh and I even did the inside - YES!!! I KNOW!! CRAZY!!  hee hee

Pointsettia Sugar Nellie

Oh these christmas images are so freakin' cute!! Okay, once again I used the sketch from Friday's Sketchers but this STILL isn't my entry.  I just love this new pointsettia Nestie and want to use it on MORE MORE MORE!  The sentiment is a rub on by American Crafts from last year.  Isn't it cute?!  It's all just CUTE!!!

Santa's Little Helper

I started out using the Friday Sketchers sketch on all my cards I did today.  I am entering one of them but this isn't it.  I'm not sure that you can see it very well but I used Spica pens for the presents, tags, bones, ball and her hair ribbon and then I covered them with Glossy Accents and wow does it ever make the Spica glitter jump to life!!  Well, IRL anyways.  These pictures annoy me cuz the paper and image are so much more vibrant but I suppose I should take the time to figure out why.  Ahhhhhh one day! :)
