LOTV Release Today!!!

Hey Ya's!  Hope you're having a fabulous weekend and enjoyed the LOTV blog hop!!!  :)

Well my little Bodhi has started school this past week, and oh my gosh .. I really really realllllly miss him at home with me.  A lot of times throughout the day, I'm wondering, "Hmmm .. what is he's doing at this very moment?"  And when he comes home, I ask him so many questions .. while my hubby rolls his eyeballs because it seems I ask Bodhi like 5 million questions.  LOL!!!  :)  They grow up SO quick don't they?  :(  Bodhi will be turning 7 years old on Monday .. I swear he was just born last month!  sigh ...

Annnyway ... do you know what today is?!!!!!!  Yes yes yes!  Lili of the Valley's newest DARLING Christmas release will be available online at midday UK time!!!!!!  Woot woot!  Did you all get your list ready?  Or ... to make it easier .. just get them ALL!  It's impossible to choose just a few right?!!!  lol!

So today I've made a card using the ADORABLE "James Snowman" and coloured him with Distress Inks.  Then I did a little tag with "Set 33 Christmas Grungy Messages".



I love this little dude!!  He's such a cutie!  Have you been checking out all my beautiful DT sisters creations as well???  Ooh my .. aren't they just GORGEOUS?!!!  Yes!  Please visit them on their personal blogs as well as on LOTV'S Inspirational Blog too!  :)

Thank you so very much for visiting me .. I truly love it when you do!  I'll see you again soon and HAPPY SHOPPING to you!!!  hehe!!  Treat yourselves!!!

Hugs,
Elise

OH!!!!!! Elise. your card is exquisite. I love snowman, and this little image is darling. I NEED IT!!! In french I would say that your fabulous card look "féérique" ; it would mean it simply comes out of a magical world. It brings a "pure joy" feeling to my heart, tender and sweet. Have a wonderful day sweetie. Hugs from MOntreal. xox

Your card is absolutely amazing! Your creativity just blows me away! I love all the embellishments, gorgeous coloring, glittery sparkle, everything. Sorry it's been hard having your little one go back to school. I can't believe how quickly summer went by. I had to send my older two back to school this week, too. I wasn't ready, but I think they both have had fun getting out of the house and doing something different so that helps. My youngest has really missed them and gets really excited when they get home. Of course, with our new little one due a week away, things are hectic! Anyway, hope you have a great long weekend! Extra time with your kiddo. :)
