Getting in the Christmas Spirit

Hi My Friends,
I didn't mean to leave you wondering where I've been, but things have been crazy busy around here. Washing machine is out of wack, Water leakage in the downstairs bathroom ceiling, Car still in the shop...I could go on. Something is really trying to steal my Joy from this holiday season. I know I have the power to say..."This is Not How the Story is going to End". I'm picking myself up, dusting off and will Go on knowing that things will get better and I'm going to walk right into my Blessings with a wide smile on my face. Mr/Mrs. Bah-Humbug...does not live here!
Here is a project I meant to upload on yesterday, but I just didn't get around to it. I still have quite a few cards to make (ok, a whole lot) and I'm going to have to come up with some easy mass producing ideas. I have to get out of my mind of trying to make each card unique. I don't have that kind of time, plus we still need to get our tree...yikes!
Here's this cute little birdie that I was so excited to make. I've been thinking about him for some time and finally got him out of my head. He's being such a helper, holding those little lights for the Christmas tree.

Isn't he the cutest. I found these little mini lights at Michael's by Jolee. You'll be seeing a lot more of these. The stamp is from MPS - Winter Punnies. I used some puffy paint on his cute santa hat and added some stickles for some bling. This card will be entered into the following challenges: Cardz TV - "Crafty Christmas" (create anything Christmas themed), More than Favors' Wacky Wednesday - "Christmas Theme", Fantabulous Cricut - "make a Gift, Gift Packaging or use a Gift on your project", Scrapbookaholic by Abby - "Dilo En Español Challenge #6" Christmas Theme.

More Treat Holders...

Hi Everyone,
It's me again with another post for the late hour. I hope you've been enjoying your day. I'm going to be quick with this as I have to get back to studying for this major test I have next week. I need ALL the prayers I can get so shout out a good one for me. Ok, here's the challenges my project was created for:
My Pinkalicious Blog Hop create a "3D item for the Holiday",
Whimsical Wednesdays - "Create bags/boxes or anything that can package Halloween Treats,
More Than Favors' Wacky Wednesday - "Create something for "Halloween".

I used the mini monsters cartridge for this treat holder cut at fit to page. I altered the front of it a bit as I was going for a bat-ty look. I also see after uploading this that I forgot to add my sentiment and ink up my edges. Well it's complete now and I'll have to do that later. It's perfect for the little ones at Halloween. I must confess that I don't really celebrate Halloween, but I love seeing the little ones dressed up in their cute adorable outfits. Treat holders and a few cards are as far as I get.

Altered Composition Notebook

Hello Friends,
I have a lot of posts today, so make sure to check back here often. Don't forget about my "MEGA MONDAY BIRTHDAY GIVEAWAY" [click here for more info]. By now all children should be somewhat adjusted with being back in school. The routines around the house are getting back on track and everyone is settling into a new normal. I created this project of an Altered Composition Book for my step-daughter who's in high school. I wanted to surprise her with and she Loved It! Now, she's putting in requests for others that she wants done. Of course I would be happy to do more for her. This Composition Book is being entered into My Pink Stamper's Blog Hop Challenge - "School Theme Project" (cannot be a card or layout). Also this was a perfect fit for Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog (FCCB) - "Back to School" (use ABCs and/or 123s on your project).
