Thanksgiving Weekend!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday with family and friends!! I have had a busy month. My mom just had hip surgery so I took a much needed trip to VT to visit with both her and my Dad. It is a beautiful drive as long as it is not snowing!!
Well I am posting pictures of my album cover for JYC 2010 with Shimelle at  http://www.shimelle.com/  this is my second year :) Once you join and do it one year you are good for all the following years. I have actually added snowflakes to my cover since I took this picture. I knew it needed something. I should take a new picture huh, oh well that will be next time.

Now here are the tags that I made to go along with the JYC album. Not sure I will use them on every page but probably on most of them. 

I have also been busy making my Christmas Cards too. Here are just a few of them.



Thanks for stopping by!! I hope you like my creations :)

Kraftin' Kimmie Challenge 53 - How Distressing!!

I came across another challenge over at http://kraftinkimmiestamps.blogspot.com/ This weeks challenge is obviously distressing. Tara wants us to distress our designs! I used Charlotte!! I colored her with copic markers and then I added some distress ink to that and then I spritzed it with some perfect pearls and water. The card stock is from co-ordinations that is embossed and sanded and the blue card stock is from the Dear Lizzy line http://elizabethkartchner.blogspot.com/ which I sewed together. 
I hope you like it.

Mo's Challenge #56 What's in your pocket/

Whoa long time since I posted anything on my blog. Busy, busy. busy!!
I decided to enter in Mo's challenge http://mosdigitalchallenge.blogspot.com/. Lydia's set the challenge this week for us to think of "pockets"  And that is entirely subject.
I love this cute guy (door mouse). I colored him with my copic markers.
I used co-ordinations paper and embossed it sanded it a bit and then I hand stitched the corned on. I also made a smaller tag with my sentiment stamped on it and made a pocket on the back so that it would fit nicely.
I am happy with the way it turned out of course I had to add a flower to it. :)
