Love Life ...

Hey You's!  Hope you're all ready for Valentine's Day?  :)  Gosh, the way time is flying, Easter will be here before we know it!  hehe.

Well I got to making this little shaker card and did a little bit of fussy cutting.  Truly had a lot of fun doing it!

Thank you so much for stopping by and wishing you all a most fabulous day filled with love, chocolates and great food!  ;)

Happy Holidays ...

Hey You's!  Happy November!  Hope you're all doing wonderfully!

Well, I made my first Christmas card for the year!  I'm trying so hard to make more, but hmmmm ... seems my motivation comes and goes incredibly quick.  It more so goes than stays.  lol.  

So for my first Christmas card, I decided to pull out my Graphic 45 paper and go from there.  A shaker is what I came up with .. shakers are so fun to make aren't they?

I'd love to make about 30 Christmas cards, but honestly ... I can see myself making a total of 3.  OMG right?  hahahaha!

Well, thank you so much for stopping by and I wish you a most WONDERFUL day!

Hugs,

Dreaming of a White Christmas ...

Hey Ya's!  It's officially Autumn!  Do you love this time of year like I do?

I get that "cozy" feeling when I think of Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up.  Of course I don't like how quick time is going, but still .. I love knowing the holidays are right around the corner.  I enjoy the longer nights and the chilly weather .. makes me think of hot cocoa (with a big dash of coffee in it for me) with marshmallows.  MmMmm!

I've made a Christmas shaker a few weeks ago .. 

I used lovely flowers that I won from I Am Roses and the sweet sentiment is from LOTV.

Thank you so much for visiting me and I wish you a most BEAUTIFUL day!

Hugs,

Dashing Thru the Snow ...

Hey Ya's!  Happy October 1st!  Wowwww .. can you believe it?  Another month has flown by and we are getting closer and closer to another new year .. eeeeek!

I've made my first Christmas card .. yup .. I am so ready for the Winter months as it is so hot here still.  I am tired of the heat so if any of you can send some cold weather this way .. I'd be truly grateful.  ;)

Okay, so I've seen shaker cards around for awhile as all of you lovely crafters have already done them .. I think I may be the only one who has not done one until now.  ;)  I thought they'd be difficult .. but it is actually quite fun and easier than I imagined!  

This wooden sled was from Michaels that I purchased last year .. I painted it with gesso, then covered it with lots of glitter (which of course is not visible in the photos .. grrrrrr!).  I put some seed beeds and sequins in the shaker .. so much fun I want to make more!  haha.

I'd like to enter this into the I am Roses Challenge .. "Anything Goes"

I really want to thank you for stopping by to visit me .. I appreciate it so much!

Wishing you a most beautiful day and hope to see you again soon!

Hugs,

Elise
