Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Here is Olivia waiting to go to grammies for Christmas dinner-playing with her new toy Ipod Touch-so now that I know what they can do I want one!!!!! well really I would like the Iphone. So maybe for my birthday. we will see Next pic is Emilee showing off her gift from grammie Baker she made both the girl aprons and gave them really nice cookbooks.

Ok See Olivia's snowflake socks---ahhh, the girls were playing around and this is where Olivia ended up and I was at the dining room table creating so I couldn't resist.....
gingerbread house this one is Olivi'a (she was job shadowing at Emilee's school) and what a perfect day-Emilee's class made them. Emilee forgot hers at school. but they are cute...

late night creating/crafting trying to finish up some gifts. I have a studio/craft room but our dining room table is huge and the tv is in the same room, the girls and I watched movies and created together.....This Christmas went by way to fast for me, I didn't get to do the normal stuff I do (traditions) this year and the girls let me know it. I said next year I promise.........

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year..

Joy

Bringing you all some Christmas Joy!! this cute little card I made a while back, but I just love it!!

Made with Melissa Frances paper, Close To My Heart Rustic Stamps, inks. glitter, red stickles. I sewed the little tree on the card.

So much to finish up before Christmas Eve, little more shopping, I haven't even done any of my baking like I do. This Christmas has come so fast and money is short, we have been trying to make homemade gifts, plus we have cut way back on gifts.

Let's remember the Real reason for the Season: Jesus birth!!!!!

Christmas is coming!!!!!

Saturday Night snow storm, left Olivia and I home alone!! We put on a Christmas Movie and crafted all night.......girltime and ink, paper, and glue what fun.....

I am making a banner to hang in the kitchen....the raffles are paper folded sooo cute.

Last night was Olde Tyme Christmas in Lancaster, NH we go every year! We love it, except for the bad weather but a little rain or snow doesn't stop anyone, it's so fun to walk up and down main street and seeing all the window displays and the shops have free food and hot drinks for everyone, the bank gives out hot apple crisp, there is a craft fair, sleigh rides, Santa of course and so much more. We always have a fun time, I tried to get my girls to take pictures with Frosty the Snowman but they are getting to old for that, which made me really sad but I understood. Here are a few pics of out "Olde Tyme Christmas" enjoy:

this was taken in the car driving into Lancaster.....

driving through the town, the next one the wind was blowing and I love how the decorations look like they are flying....

Home from Retreat

My daughter Olivia and I are home from our Women's Retreat, we had such a wonderful, refreshing time. Here we are with our guest speaker Joanne Weever from Montana. She was very insightful and a blessing to my heart.
Now that my workshops are over and can get busy on the holidays and cleaning my studio room what a mess and let me just say the mess ended up through my kitchen and dining room. What a mess!! But it was worth it!! More to come.

Goodies from Scrapbook Store

Oh my-today I had to run into Generations of Memories Scrapbook store (www.generationsofmemories.com) only for two sheets of paper to finish my kits with. Well Lynne was working on something and I flipped! I said where did you get that she said here, oh no I had to pick some up!!

Graphic 45 Christmas Past Collection oh my only could get a few sheets but believe me later I will go get the rest. I love this paper line and the company, and I picked up a new stamp from Bo Bunny another fav.... so here is a teaser...!! enjoy

creative around the house

this is what happens when I have stayed up way to late creating in my room, our kitty gets very put out with me and demands attention.

some little elves have been playing in my room (while I haven't felt well) here is Olivia's creations, a music sign for her dad's guitar room and a layout for her scrapbook of my mom and her. she did a great job.

Here Emilee did some locker photos for her locker at school (her favorite pics) my mom and her, Emilee and Dylan (my twin brothers son), Uncle Peter(my twin) and Emilee. We had a great time in Maine. Emilee you did a wonderful job.
