Happy (almost) New Year!!!






Well, it's Friday night, and the hubby and I are chillin' at his parent's house using the high speed internet...maybe someday we'll have it at OUR house! Anyway, I have seen some of my blogging friends posting about their favorite cards, so I thought I would join in on the fun! Sit back and relax for a bit while I check out my pics and I'll be back in a jiffy...
Ok, now that I've had a chance to review, here are my top five picks...
The first one is the very first card I entered into a Bugaboo challenge...and it won too! I colored him with Crayola markers, and I'm still pretty impressed with him! Next up is Barry and his snowman friend from Stamp Fairy. I just looooove Barry...he is so durn cute in that hat!!! I did manage to give him away this year. Third on my list is this little penguin from Whimsie Doodles. I love the little scene I made for him, especially the felt snow!Fourth is this snowman from Digi Stamp Boutique. I just love him and all his possible accessories! He made it to Mom's house for Christmas. Last but certainly not least is this adorable Meljen's penguin and friend image. I made this one and two other pink cards for the Breast Cancer Awareness prompt from Jingle Belles in October. I really like the layout I used on this one....I may have to repeat that for this year!
Well, that's it for my favs...I hope everyone has some fun tomorrow night, and I hope to see you all in 2012!

Hello!

I hope everyone's Christmas was what they wanted it to be! We had a nice day at my Mom's, once I got done working and took another shower. I know we've all probably been pretty busy lately, what with all the buying, wrapping, baking, cooking, etc......I haven't had much time to craft or sit at the computer this month, as in the evenings before Christmas, we try to watch some of our Christmas movies as a family. Here's hoping we all are looking forward to the New Year with enthusiasm and optimism. :) I hope to get back to crafting/blogging soon...hubby has something planned for me that may put a dent in it for a bit, but it's a great thing!

Take care until we meet again!
