12 Days of Christmas Hop Day 6!



Welcome!  I hope you hopped here from Deb's blog :)  You don't want to miss any of the projects so if you need to go back to Lisa's blog and start from the beginning.

So today I wanted to do something a little different.  I had all my projects that I was going to blog about all lined up but I have to share today with all of you :)  So my sister and her 2 little ones came to see me over Thanksgiving....its such a big deal because we only get to see each other around 2-3 times a YEAR :(  So when she got here I didn't want to waste any time lol.   My niece Idalia loooooves crafting so of course I had to have her make some ornaments for her tree.  We had to use what we had lying around because there was NO WAY I was hitting a store today lol.

So here is what me and my little buddy wanted to share with you today

We made this Santa ornament and she was so excited!
The little red ball is a small ornament and we put her thumb print in the middle and made it a reindeer.  I was never so bummed to not have had a bigger ornament unpacked from my move.

And lastly we made this cute little snowman face out of a tealight.  
I know it may not be highly technical but it was a special day and I wanted to share it with you.  She is so excited to have her work looked at lol.  
I hope you all have a blessed day and give that special someone in your life an extra hug today.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!  I wont be long winded today because I know we are all probably busy with family and friends.  Stay safe if you are traveling and I hope you like my project.

Please excuse my bow making ability I am still learning with those :)  What I like best about these is you can embellish them however you want.  I got the bells from the dollar store :)

12 Days of Christmas Hop Day 3


Welcome back for yet another day full of crafty goodness!  I am so glad you made it to my blog.  You should have came from Deb's blog.  And if you haven't started at the beginning yet you will want to, so hop back to Lisa's blog and visit all the ladies for some amazing ideas!

Today, and I apologize for the picture quality, I made a LO I have been meaning to make since LAST Christmas :(  I can be such a slacker!!!

Every year we read the Night Before Christmas, and we even have digital books with voice recordings so that my kids grandparents have a turn reading it to them too even when they are at home in Ohio.  The kids love it and even though they know it all by heart we still look forward to reading it over and over as we wait for Christmas Night.  With that said I found it only fitting that I make a page like this...




For this LO I used SVG Cuts Christmas in the Village

I hope you like it!  Up next is Sandy's blog.
