Christmas Eve!

It's Christmas Eve! 

I have been running around all day like chicken with my head cut off, trying to get all my last minute things checked off my list! I am glad that it's Christmas Eve because that means that I will be spending all-day with friends and family tomorrow. :)

When I saw this cut on the Jolly Holiday's cart, I thought it would be perfect for a Christmas Eve card.

The papers are DCWV and Jillibean Soup and the sentiment is from here.

 I decided to kept this card really simple so that you wouldn't miss any of the details on the cut.

 His foot prints in the snow make me laugh!

I hope that you have a wonderful Christmas!

Falalalala Lalalala!

Happy Wednesday!

This post is a little late... it has been raining here in southern California, for four days straight now, and my little house just couldn't take it anymore. I had some flooding in the living room and kitchen this morning. It's mostly just wet floors but it's just one more thing to deal with during this crazy time of year. Hopefully, most of the storm has passed and we will be able to start the long process of drying out.

On to today's card... 

I am kind of sad that we only have a few more days left of Christmas cards. 

The little girl was cut from the Jolly Holiday's cart. The tag is from the Winter Frolic cart.

The papers are DCWV, and Cosmo Cricket. The Embossing was done with the snowflake embossing folder. The twine is from The Twinery and the sentiment stamp is from here.

I used the Cheery-O's Face Assortment set from Peachy Keen Stamps, for her face. This set is quickly becoming my new favorite set. :)

Here's the inside. :)

Don't forget about our (my bestie and I) new challenge, Tacky Tuesday's, you have until January 4th, 2011 to make a card. 

I will see you back here tomorrow with another Christmas card! Only three more until next year!

A Reindeer and Blog Hop Giveaways!

Happy Sunday!

I hope your weekend has been a success! Only 5 more days until Christmas, are you ready?

 I have gotten somethings finished up, but still have quite a bit to do. Oh well, it is what it is, right?

So I took some time yesterday to spend with my bestie. We went shopping for a a couple hours and then did a little crafting. 

This is the card I made. 

  The reindeer is from Jolly Holiday's. He was cut at 4". The scalloped frame behind him is a tag from A Child's Year cart. I sized it on my Gypsy so that I would still have about 3/8" all the way around the card.

The paper is DCWV and Jilliebean Soup's Christmas Collection. The stamp is from here and the ribbon is from Michael's. 

I have been having a lot of fun making Christmas cards this year. I am a little sad that I only have 5 more days to make them.

Jolly Holiday's!

Happy Monday!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I was finally able to get a little "Black Friday" shopping in on Saturday.  My bestie and I hit up Wal-mart, for the coveted limited edition lite carts and the limited edition Cricut, and our favorite scrapbook store! We were able to get some things that we both had our eye on, super fun stuff! Luckily, we both like to share things which makes it nice and almost like getting twice as much. :)

So once we got home, I just had to break out my Jolly Holiday's cart and my PKS stamps and make a card!

I just LOVE that cart! I cut the cute little snowman at 3 1/2".

The paper is from We-R-Memory Makers and DCWV. The sentiment is from this stamp set and the twine is from here, both sites just happen to be having sales today!

The face stamp is from the new Peachy Keen stamp set PK-470 Happy New Year. Don't you just LOVE PKS!?!

You still have time to enter my PKS giveaway! I will choose the winner at 9pm tonight and announce the name in tomorrow's post.

 I hope you have a wonderful day!
