Christmas Shopping Day

It's Christmas Week...6 more shopping days left until Christmas!!! I have a few more days to take advantage of those deals out there since I haven't started my shopping. I am finally going to start my shopping today, hopefully the stores are not too crazy. I kinda wish I shopped online but oh well, I didn't so I have to deal with the crowds of procrastinators like me. Haha!! I'm not complaining, I am happy that I was just swamped with custom orders & boutiques. Anyway, I will try to stay calm and keep this in mind...

And the Winner is....

Eek! Sorry about the delay! I didn't forget about the winner. I've just been super busy thanks to Christmas arriving soooo soon. Also, I was feeling under the weather this past week. Anyway, I am back on track and I would like to thank each and every one of you who entered our "Holiday Giveaway" I appreciate your support!!

Staying busy this Holiday Season

Hi friends! Are you ready for Christmas? Have you wrapped your gifts yet or even finished your shopping? Well, if you have...kuddos to you because I haven't done either. I've been as busy day and night filling all of my holiday orders. Between creating cards, making crafts with my class and getting stuff ready for the two upcoming holiday boutiques, I am trying to stay afloat. I am looking forward to my "winter break" starting next week but I am not too excited about the last minute shopping. Hopefully I will finish in one day and I be a happy girl so I can relax!!

Christmas Wreath

We haven't purchased our tree yet but we have put up our beautiful Christmas wreath, compliments of my future mom-in-law and sis-in-law and I absolutely LOVE it!! They were gracious enough to make it for us last year and we are so glad they did, thank you Carole & Shell!!

LOVE my XMAS Ribbon....

I think I might have gone a little over board with purchasing xmas ribbon this year...haha but it's ok because I absolutely LOOOOOOVE it all!!!!! I love how each spool gives me a little inspiration for a new design. I've been working like a busy bee creating new scrapbook pages, cards and tags. Here are a few of my favorite spools of ribbon....

Holiday Boutique Day

It was a late night last night and now an early morning...I've been getting ready for a Holiday Boutique at a local elementary school. It's exciting to create new designs and working with Christmas supplies, this year I love eveything with sparkle!! I will post pictures soon! Hope to see some of you at the Boutique!! :)

Wedding Invites

I've been working diligently to fulfill a wedding invitation order by tomorrow, I am half way done...YAY!!!

Happy Thanksgiving

Hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving. I had a wonderful time celebrating with my family and friends. I am relieved its all over now, I was super busy creating custom orders straight through Thanksgiving morning. Take a look at how they turned out...

Baby Shower Gift

In addition to all the baby shower orders I had to fulfill this weekend, I also had a baby shower to attend myself for my dear friends A & N. I decided to try something new by making them a customized bucket to put their gift in. They absolutely loved it and I am glad!!

Check out this custom order...

I love custom orders!! It's pretty exciting helping my clients vision come to life. Here are some custom baby shower favor tags I recently made. I also made a matching card to go with the tags. I am always happy to accept custom orders. If you can think of it, I can create it!!

Holiday Tags

I’m a tag girl. I love cute tags, they are great for everything. Think organization, gifts, scrapbooking….you can use tags all over the place! I've been busy creating holiday gift tags. I think these tags will be PERFECT for Christmas/Holiday gifts this year. Don’t ya think? They come in all sizes...visit my Etsy shop, new items coming soon!!!

Sneak Peak

Here is a sneak peak at what we will have in our shop soon...

Shopping Day

What a day!! Today consisted of shopping, shopping and more shopping! My friend and I ventured on a hunt for new supplies. I scored some fabulous finds which consist of some of my favorite things and more...I found a ton of festive ribbon, glitter, rhinestones, variety of stamps, holiday paper and plenty of materials to create embellishments. I am delighted with all of my new goodies and I can't wait to use all of them. Even though I might have gone a bit overboard, lol, I love feeling inspired to create my custom orders and more!!

FREE Printables

I have to admit, being sick with a cold has its perks! Not only can you stay home from work, you can lay in bed and browse the web all day long!! Anyway, I was browsing through the web for inspiration and I came across "Catch My Party." Its a party website and they have a section full of free printables for all occassions. Check it out,  http://catchmyparty.com/printables I think I might just use some to decorate my Thanksgiving desserts!!

Thanksgiving Crafts for Kids

Along with being a scrapbooker, I am also an elementary school teacher. Throughout the year, I am constantly looking for new and creative seasonal crafts for my class. Here are some Thanksgiving crafts we are going to make...








Rainy Crafty Sunday

Happy Sunday! Its raining here and I love it!! Its a perfect excuse to lounge around in my jammies and to be creative. I've kicked into Holiday mode and started creating Christmas cards and tags. I'm also in the process of starting my first large order of 50 baby shower favor tags. I have so many ideas it's a bit overwhelming but I'm so excited!! I will post pictures of my new creations soon!!

LOVE shopping trips to Michaels

                                   

So yesterday I stopped at Michaels for some Halloween stickers (after Halloween Sale) and I ended up with all of this!! I don't know about you but I have a serious problem with just buying one thing at Michaels. I absolutely LOVE this store, I think I might be obsessed!! What can I say??!! Can't wait to design new cards and scrapbook pages using my new products! :)
