Hello & Happy Tuesday Everyone!
How was your weekend???
Did you find time to work on those
Christmas Cards? Maybe Decorate? Clean
the House? Shop?
Well... I spent about 18 hours of my weekend
BAKING! Yup! Lots of time baking -
I froze most of it and I sent about 6lbs
of baked goods to my Sister - We're doing
a Bake exchange this year - I came up with the idea
the other day and asked if she wanted to do it with me
So, I made 7 different kinds of goodies to send to her
All NEW stuff I've never made before and she will
send me some yummy baked goodies in return...
I also sent off about 15lbs. of baked goods to
my Handsome Marine! I ended up mailing off
2 medium-sized Flat Rate boxes - LOL
He is gonna FREAK out when he sees what I sent him
All his favorite things and those new baked goodies too!
My oldest will be here for Christmas, so that's why
I thought I would freeze stuff and it would last us
awhile since I can't Control my Baking! HAHAHA
YES! It's as bad as my craft shopping sometimes!
Once I start, I get ALL into it and I want to bake
all kinds of things - My Youngest Son was so kind
to help me and at one point he was like
MOM?? Don't we have ENOUGH Stuff?? LOL
That's when I knew it was time to get control over
my goodies! hahaha, I honestly don't eat
many goodies anymore -
I lost all that weight and I certainly don't
want any of it back! So, my family will just have
to enjoy it! The best part is, it's all frozen
so it will last them awhile -- YAY!!
Anywho - I heard that Jaded Blossom
brought back the Monthly Challenges!! YAY!!!
So my project is for the
TAGS
So, here is what I made to play along!
I really like how my tag turned out -
I'm using almost ALL Jaded Blossom Products
They recently had their Black Friday Sale
So, I thought I would play with some
of my new goodies from their shop!!
As you can tell, I did the backside too - 😊
Jaded Blossom products used - Ticket Book Dies (for my Tag Shape)
Card Layer Dies 1 (Stitched Banner),
Holly Jolly Christmas Set (Santa, Sentiment, & Secret Santa)
Cake Day (for the "YOUR"), Oh Christmas Tree (for the "to & from)
Other products used --
Red Cardstock, Watercolor paper, Zig Real Brush Pens,
Distress Oxide Inks, White Signo Gel Pen,
Clear Wink of Stells Pen, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink,
Versafine Onyx Black Ink, Misti Tool, Big Shot,

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Have a FABULOUS DAY!!
