Wreath Kick

Well I've been on a wreath kick lately.

This is the newest one:

I made this from Stampin Up!'s Love Impressions Designer Series Paper, which is currently available in the Occasions Mini. I also use Real Red and Pretty in Pink 12x12 card stock to fill in and give a little more color.

I am trying to put a class together, if I get enough interest. The cost would be $25 per person; all materials included.

The weather

Lately the weather around here has been COLD!

So when trying to find something to do, you slowly
realized that there's ALOT to do.

There are two lists; what I want to do, and what I need to do.

What I want to do consists of making cards, working on different projects,
reading, getting caught up on shows that I have on the DVR, take a nap.

Now comes the list of what I need to do: Never ending laundry, sweep floors,
clean the bathroom, clean the kitchen, make sure there's something for lunch.

The above list is a never ending one, but it at least makes the first list a treat when
I actually get to it. I'm sure we all feel this way sometimes. Now if we could only
bottle children's energy and have it for those days when the Need To Do list is
what we need to get done.

Merry Christmas!

Sending peace on Earth,

Love to all,

For a very joyous holiday!

It was alot of fun, a project that was easy to do.

I found the "extruded" wreath rings at

Hobby Lobby and Michael's, in their

styrofoam isles.

I found this great tutorial at Archivers.com.

They had this great idea on their blog!
Mine doesn't look exactly like theirs, but I did give it
a good try.

I used mostly paper I had on hand so it's not the two sided kind.

Brought it to work, and it was a big hit!

Spoiled Pet

See how protective he is about his space! Nobody's safe

when it comes to his nap time.
