Cricut Cardz Challenge #122

Hello and Happy Wednesday everyone! Well...

Today is a big day! Why you ask? Well let me tell ya....

It's Challenge day over at 

Cricut Cardz (aka Cardz TV) 

and this is my very last Design Team card for them! 

Yesss... I'm very sad about it.... 

It has been a very long and hard decision on my 

part... I LOVED designing for Mary and working with an

AWESOME Design Team... I will miss everyone 

 terribly! Soooo, let's get on with the challenge today!

"Tis the Season" Make a Christmas Card using

the "CARD" Feature from any cartridge!

This will be the last card for the year

from Cricut Cardz... Mary let's everyone take

a holiday break at this time. And the team

will return in January for more fun Challenges!

Here's the card I created for this challenge.

Cartridges: Art Philosophy (Card Shape), Scallop Border

Scandinavian Christmas Cards - (Ornament) Cut @ 2"

I also have some more sad news to share....

This will be my last blog post. For how long?

I honestly don't know.... I've made it no

secret that work has been really busy, and

it's been very difficult for me to do the million

and 1 things I have to do daily... Soooo, after

lots of soul searching.... I decided to stop blogging

for awhile.... I mean... really... I haven't been fair to

my blog or my wonderful blogging friends.... SO

for the time being... I will no longer be posting

on this site... Now I did speak with my sister about

all of this and she said she would do her best

to continue the blog and posting.... But as for me...

It will probably be a long time before I can get back 

to blogging... If I get any free time, I will still try

to visit my blogging friends... I just hope you all

understand why I'm doing this, and this decision

was not easy for me to make... But I gotta do what's

best for me & my family right now.... and this is it!

I will miss everyone dearly, and I can't 

THANK YOU

enough for supporting me and this blog!

I wish everyone a Wonderful

Christmas & a Blessed New Year!

Have an AWESOME day!!!!

Christmas...

Hello and Happy Tuesday everyone! How's your week

going so far? Any of you have snow yet? Surprisingly

we haven't had any! I personally don't mind it...

 I know we need it... especially  for the farmers around here, They do!

Sooo, yeah I feel a little bad about it! :o) 

Just not that bad!

Here's another card for ya...

Just like yesterday's card... This is another

99 cent Silhouette card. I added a couple

of things... and I took the tree from the outside

of the card, and put it inside the card...

Couldn't see wasting it... :o)

Thanks again for stopping by!

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone! I hope you all

had a FABULOUS Holiday Weekend! I guess the kick

off to Christmas has begun with lots of people shopping

and decorating for the season..... I know we did some decorating.....

Not the shopping part as yet, but I think I still have time to shop

before the big day! :o) Did you guys have fun with family

for the Thanksgiving Holiday? I hope so.... :o)

Speaking of Christmas CC # 121

Hello and Happy Wednesday Everyone! Sorry I've been MIA Again!

I've been soooo busy at the store, trying to prepare for Black Friday!

This is my very first Black Friday as a store owner... so I'm trying to

get as much stuff out as possible for my customers.... we've actually

been really busy already and I'm thrilled with all the shopping going

on at my store... But with shopping goes a lot more work on my part...

We've been getting donations daily... and not 1 or 2 bags either... lots

and lots of them... So I'm trying really hard to keep up with that and

price & put out ALL my holiday stuff.... I bought new shelves to use

for the large amount of Christmas items I have.... Sooo... I've just been

a busy little bee! I'm actually going to have the next several days off, so

hopefully I'll have some free time to go visit all my blogging friends that

I've been neglecting! :o)

I'm sure you didn't come here to hear about my busy work life...

week already! Looking forward to Friday! :O) Thanks for the ideas
Debbie & Stephanie.... But that just sounds like more work! tehehehhe

You know I'm kidding! :O) I actually did get something started... Soooo

Rock-a-bye baby....

Hello and Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a

fabulous weekend! Mine was kind of boring.... I made 2 loaves

of bread and got my DT cards done and then I was suppose to

work on Christmas cards cuz I'm going to the crop til ya drop

this Friday... And well.... I just didn't make anything! NOTHING!!!

What the heck am I suppose to take with me to an all niter crop?

I started to work with my silhouette and then I was having trouble with

my mouse... or maybe it was me.... I kept clicking on something I wanted

to do then it would click to something else... I was like WHAT???

So after lots of frustration I said forget it... and I stopped... Then I realized

I was low on ink for my printer, so I couldn't design anything in

My digital Studio.... Remember I don't live in or near a big city, so I

can't just run to the store when I run out of something.... :o(

So today I'm off from work too and I just don't feel like making

anything... I guess I'm going to the crop to chat all night long....

Not that that's a bad thing either.... but I was really hoping to start

on some Christmas cards.... Oh well... maybe next year! LOL

I do have a card for ya today..... :o)

 

 

I created this card before I went on my trip....

I used My Digital Studio (from Stampin' Up)

 and my Cameo.... Added some Bakers Twine and

popped up the scallop & boat and there ya go.... :o)

 

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have an

AWESOME DAY!!!!
