This Sums it Up

What more can I say.........................Some years just aren't so great I guess. 
Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
I'll see everyone back here on January 1st.

The Big Guy

Here's the Big Guy for you (My Favorite Things)!  Like it or Not Christmas is almost here.

Sorry I haven't been around to your blog lately.  No excuse - that's just the way it is sometime.

I'll be back on Friday with what I think probably sums it all up.  Could it be a Fun Friday?!
Thanks for stopping by...........

La La Llama

I have a good friend that used to raise alpacas and every time I see this llama I want to send her a card.  This was her Christmas card for the year.  Very clean and simple but I know she'll like it because I think it's going to remind her of the alpacas. 

This is short and sweet today which is always a good thing when you don't feel like reading a bunch of bull.

Tagging Along

A word to the wise........don't ever leave anything sitting out where one of your unnamed children may see it because when they leave the house whatever you left out is going to be missing.  And then you'll get a phone call a day or so later from that unnamed child that starts out something like this......"mom, do you think you could make about 20 more of those cute little tags and send them to me? Like tomorrow?"    You just gotta love the unnamed child! (But the answer was a resounding NO)   I also couldn't get a better picture of them because that certain unnamed child has them now. 

Anyway, all the images on these were done with a set of stamps from  Jane's Doodles.  Cute images and they were the perfect size for the tags.  The polka dot trees were cut with a Newton's Nook die.  That about takes care of it.

Plumping Up - 2 Crafty Critter Crazies

Thanksgiving is over with and this is what's left - leftovers!  Sadly, no one wanted a skinny turkey this year.  He'd really been trying to pump iron and plump up but it never happened so he goes back to pasture until next year.  By then he'll probably be so tough no one could even chew him!  Instant jerky I guess.

Time for another fun challenge at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies!  Come on over and enter your card or project because we're being sponsored by none other than QKR Stampede and they have a wonderful prize package for the challenge winner.  All you have to do is have a critter on your project.  We love seeing all of them too!

I used the skinny turkey from QKR Stampede- and yes, he's nothing but skin and bones.  A stencil was used for the background, a bit of patterned paper on Kraft, and that about takes care of it.  

Thanks for stopping by.........and hop on over to 2 Crafty Critter Crazies to enter.  You have all month long!

Whatever.........

I took this picture with my phone, sent the card off, and now I see it's a little blurry.  It is what it is though.

One of my granddaughters was the proud owner of this card I made for her birthday - yes, she's got that same type of humor that I have.  A little off balanced maybe? 

Anyway the image is from Newton's Nook and I laugh every time I see this.  I also used a Newton's Nook stencil and made the "waves".   Something different since it's not a Thanksgiving Day card and it's not a Christmas card.............It's a goat card!

Thanks for stopping by........I'm going to be missing in action for a couple of weeks but I'll be back. If you celebrate, I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving Day.

Hot Chihuahua

This was one of those stamp sets that I really didn't NEED, at all.......however I HAD to HAVE it!  I mean, come on.....look at that sweet like face and a body all squashed up in the taco.  Yes, we do eat a lot of tacos down this way - but minus the chihuahua inside them of course....and yes, we also soak them in hot sauce too.  Yummy!  The hotter the better and you still feel it the next day.  Not so yummy then.

Anyway, like I said, I didn't need that set of stamps from Hero Arts, but had to have it.  Too cute and will make a good birthday card for someone.

Thanks for stopping by.............
