 Hi, friends!

This year is about over, and a new one about to begin.

Ingredients:

Chalked background (so easy and fun)

My Besties pre-colored image

Cardz TV Mini Messages

Stitched dies

Gold Shimmer Ribbon (Amazon)

pattern papers and gems from a pocket letter swap I did (I love the colors!)

I chalked the background. I used to do this all the time, and just forgot about it until today when the white background was begging me to put some chalk on it.

I used pink, green, blue, and lavender. 

Thanks for visiting!

Dear Santa

 Hi! Hope y'all are having a really good December!

This is a cute little cutting file created by Lori Whitlock. I will admit, I'm awful putting together new things without a tutorial. This file is new, and I didn't see a tutorial for it. I had so much extra cut out paper that I have no idea how this thing is suppose to go together. I just winged it and trashed the leftover cuts.

But it's still CUTE!

You can put something in the drawer and a tag, note, or gift card in the snowman envelope holder thingie.

Thanks for visiting with me today and for always leaving me encouraging comments. I love reading your comments! They always make me smile.

We will be working on the house this weekend. More painting, sawing, sanding... It's suppose to get in the 20's tonight. We don't have central air and heat there, just a few gas heaters in a few different rooms. I hope all of our blankets, layered clothing, and sweaters keep us warm, or I may just park out in from the gas heater and not move at all. It's amazing how stiff I am in the cold. Probably a lot to do with age and arthritis. :)

One of our daughters is eloping this weekend and spending their honeymoon at Disney. We are throwing them a big party when they get back. I'm very much looking forward to that event. 

Enjoy your weekend! Stay warm!

:) Janis

Gnome Snow Globe Card

 Hi, everyone!

I hope y'all are having a wonderful December so far.

This little booger took me a bit to create.

It wasn't hard, just a new fold style.

Lori Whitlock has wonderful tutorial videos.

(Thank you, Lori!)

View from looking down on this 3D Snow Globe card.

And it folds nicely for A2 envelopes!

The base can fold up or down

(down shown here).

Lori's video said down was preferred for

A2 envelope mailing.

Ingredients:

Lori Whitlock Gnome Snow Globe box card

Scrap pattern papers

Foam dots for snowflakes

Tada! I did it! I didn't think I'd be able to figure this out, but thanks to Lori Whitlocks tutorial video, I got it done!

Merry Christmas!

:) Janis
