Merry Merry Merry! FMS13




I am a live in the moment kind of gal.  I rarely take a camera with me - I prefer to go through life not peering through a lens.  I was not the mother snapping pictures of my kids at Disney World or rushing the stage to get a good shot of my tap dancer. I never took videos at Little League games. I just enjoyed the events!  But perhaps if I had handled a camera more throughout the years I would be better at taking pictures of my cards.  What happened to the score lines on my card?  They just disappeared right into the picture.  And what happened to the warm Crumb Cake color?  Just faded away.........sigh.......this card made me smile - until I snapped the picture!  I think I will just leave you now and look at the real thing clipped up on my card display rack~!

Pearls For You.....PPA121



Pearls dress up any occasion!  So keeping in the spirit of the holiday season - and the challenge at Pals Paper Arts -  I broke out the pearls!  Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful - and ended with pie :)

Christmas Bells.....FMS12



The very talented Jen Mitchell designed the sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches.  So in honor of Jen and her new policy of using up designer paper (that seems to abound in so many of our craft rooms) I dug out last year's Deck the Halls. My die cut circle fit perfectly after a bit of fussy cutting around the poinsettias and the holly leaves.  The bells are embossed in gold  - and ready to ring in the holiday season!

Dear Santa......PPA120



Dear Santa,
     I hope you like this letter I am sending you!  I dressed it up with beautiful sparkles - just for you!  And I wouldn't mind at all if you left me something sparkly too!
