Better Late Than Never

So, I’m finally getting around to posting some Christmas cards that I made.  I took the pictures with my iPhone so they may not be the best quality.

I got the idea for the reindeer card from Nichol Magouirk. Mine is slightly different, but I loved her version so much that I did not deviate that much from it.  The reindeer was downloaded from the Silhouette online store.

These next three cards are using designs from Kerri Bradford Designs. I love her stuff!! I will soon be buying more designs from her.

 

This last card is using a design that I downloaded from the Silhouette online store.  I thought the little snowman was so cute!!

I am hoping that I can eventually get InLinkz setup so that I can start linking all the products that I use.  Let’s just suffice it to say that my Cameo got a great workout making these cards, and I have been using it all the time!!  It is one of the best investments I have ever made when it comes to scrapbooking/cardmaking.

Well, thanks for looking!  I hope to be more active on my blog this year and post more projects.  Yes, I said the same thing last year and it didn’t happen, but I am really trying to make it happen this year.  What can I say…life is busy!!!

Update: I got InLinkz setup tonight!!!  Yahoo!

Online Workshop with Liz Kartchner

How exciting!!  Liz Kartchner is doing an online workshop called "Unlock Your Story" starting November 1, and I am so excited to be registered for it!!!!!  Here is the description of her workshop.

We will design a mini album full of layers and textures that will reflect the daily adventures & simple moments that define who we are & our lives. The moments that slip by so quickly. The moments that, whether you like it or not, persuade us to learn and grow. We'll use everyday photos and dig deeper into the stories behind them. Can't wait for you to unlock your story.

There are only a few spots left so head on over to her blog to get all the details and sign up!  I think it's going to be a blast!

Feeding My Paper Addiction

Well, I've already admitted that I have a paper addiction!  That's no secret and I'm definitely not in denial!  Do you think they have support groups for this?  LOL!! :)  No doubt, if they did, I would have many fellow paper addicts joining me.  At least it's not an unhealthy addiction!

I have had a decently productive weekend so far!  I started off by going to my LSS on Friday to look for new goodies.  To be more specific, I really went there to get the Echo Park "Everybody Loves Christmas" collection.  They had not even put it out on the shelves yet, but I was still able to get it!!  Score!  I also bought some extra sheets of certain other Echo Park collections that I already have.  Today, I busted out my i-Rock and put some bling on a Halloween layout from 2009.  I also added the journaling and then put it in an album.  One layout down....a zillion more to go.  I will never get caught up, but it felt good to actually FINISH a layout.  I have so many right now that need journaling or something else before I can really say they are complete.  Oh well!!  Such is life!  They will get finished when they get finished!  Right?

Well, enjoy the rest of the weekend!  I don't know if you have great weather right now where you are, but our weather is actually kind of enjoyable right now so I'm loving it!
