Merry Christmas!

Hi everyone-
I can't believe that today is Christmas, it came too fast this year, of course it seems to come too fast every year. Anyway, I hope you all are having a blessed day with your family and friends!

Here are a few things that I made to sell.
My sister ordered these calendars for my nephew's classmates- they're in the 1st grade and are starting to learn about time management.


I then made gift card holders, there were about 10 different designs.





I finished my Christmas crafts last week and now I am packing. I got asked to be the trip nurse for Moanalua high school marching band and I leave tonite. I've packed things for the students and for emergencies/first aid. Now I need to pack for myself...yikes! If all goes well and no one gets sick, I'll get to see Universal studios, Disneyland & California adventure park, magic mountain, grand canyon and the fiesta bowl parade.

I wish you all a great Christmas and a happy new year! May 2010 be filled with good health, love, happiness, friendships and prosperity. Take care and God Bless You All!

My office Christmas party

Hello everyone!
I don't know about you, but I'm so behind in everything. We had our office Christmas party last weekend and everyone had a blast. I'm now trying to work on some orders and make things to sell. And I have to make 11 favors for a retirement luncheon, busy busy!

I made this Christmas banner using my cricut, I stickled the snowflakes and the letters.


I made these favors using the Sizzix pie box die, stamped it w/ a hero arts Xmas tree stamp and embossed it. Then I decorated it w/ stickles. Used the small snowflakes from the Martha Stewart snowflake border to make the tree topper. I filled the box w/ hershey's kisses and Reese's peanut butter cups- yum!


Finally I decorated these Christmas trees for the centerpieces- I made 8 in all




I hope you all are having a nice holiday season! Take care and God Bless!

Happy Tuesday!

Hey everyone--
we're getting closer to Friday thank GOD!. Anyway, I made 2 cards yesterday on the "fly"

My co-worker's husband fell down the stairs and had a brain bleed, so he's recovering at Rehab hospital right now, we continue to pray for him for a full recovery. I was asked to make this card so everyone in the office can sign for it and we can get them a Room Service in Paradise gift certificate (this is a great company, they have many restaurants that you can choose from and they deliver the food to your house- great idea for people w/ new babies, newlyweds, new homeowners, etc). I used a pink cat studio digi image and it's appropriate b/c their dog kept barking to alert my co-worker that her husband had fallen down.


The next card is for my friend's birthday. I used a CC design from cute stuff and I really love this purely pomegranate stamp pad that I picked up.




Anyway, I am still prepping for the office Xmas party this weekend so I'll post stuff later. I'm currently cutting some shapes out on my cricut so I decided to blurf in between~

Take care

Thanksgiving festivities and other happenings

Hi everyone-
sorry I've been AWOL. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and weekend! I can't believe the weekend is almost over. Anyway, as I mentioned earlier, my step grandma's 75th birthday party was yesterday and I made 100 of her favors. We also had family coming in from Oregon so we had Thanksgiving at my mom's house. I made the turkey, sweet potato souffle, spinach stuffing balls and pumpkin tiramisu- I took most of the pics w/ my phone so I can't share them. The food was great (in my opinion lol!) and the fellowship was even better.

Here is the post-it note holder I made for my grandma's party and

here is some of the food that we ate at Thanksgiving.







As you can see- my mom, stepdad and I are exhausted (look at the bags under our eyes)

To top off the weekend I went to my first black Friday at Walmart- I left empty handed, but stayed around to help my friend fight off the crowds. It was an interesting experience to say the least. Since I was up from 700am on thanksgiving day until 630 am on black Friday- I was pooped and unconscious for most of Friday :P

I am in charge of our office Christmas party this weekend so I'm finishing up the favors and centerpieces, I'll post pics of that when I'm done.

Have a great week and take care and God Bless.

Happy Birthday Cute Stuff

hello-
I went yesterday to deliver this birthday card to cute stuff and Lianne and to go shopping of course :S I have only been shopping there for about 6 months, but my collection looks like I've shopped there for years! Yikes. Anyway, I hope she had a successful sale and I wish her many more years of great business. Thanks to her for bringing in such great stuff for us!

card for Noah

Hello everyone-
I hope you are all having a nice Veteran's day holiday-let's remember those who fought or are fighting for our freedom!

I have been busily making 100 favors for my stepgrandma's 75th birthday party at the end of the month and I need to make the favors for our office Xmas party (I'm a co-chair this year)! Whoosh.

More importantly, I have made this card to send to 5 year old Noah Biorkman of South Lyon who will celebrate Christmas early this year.

His parents, Diana and Scott, wanted to make sure he would see the holiday one last time before cancer claims his life. They'll have their own Christmas this weekend.

Noah was diagnosed with neuroblastoma in 2007, when he was 3 years old.

He went into remission, but then relapsed in September 2008. His family is not expecting him to make it to Christmas Day.

If you would like to send him a special Christmas card and send him God's blessings please mail your cards to:

Noah Biorkman
1141 Fountain View Circle
South Lyon, MI 48178

Thanks everyone and have a blessed day.

my october OCS for Shirley

Hello-
Shirley already posted this on her blog, but I wanted to share w/ you what I made for her. I used a penny black stamp, stickled the tulips and added a bow. I totally suck at making bows so it was a little skewed...grr.

Anyway, she liked the card and that's the main thing.

Have a great week!
