You should have arrived here from JACILYNN DASHWOOD's blog. Jacylynn is the DT Coordinator for the design team at One Crazy Stamper.

For my card today I used the newly released WEDNESDAY image from the Kraftin' Kimmie store. She was not originally drawn to be a Christmas image but that is what I am using her for today. She is so precious playing with her dolls. The paper I used on my card today is sold at One Crazy Stamper and it's My Minds Eye 12 Days of Christmas. I have used the heck out of this paper this holiday season. It's my absolute fav this year. I used some bling that is also sold at One Crazy Stamper that is made by My Minds Eye to go with the paper I used. Wait until you see it. I took a pic of it before I tore into it so you could see what all came with it. It's amazing ..... and adorable. I LOVE BLING!!! Here is my card and a pic of that awesome bling.



Was I right about that bling, or what? Love the pearl bling Christmas trees.

You're next stop on the Hop is MICHELLE from the One Crazy Stamper DT.

Thanks for joining us today and I hope you have fun along your journey.

ALL THAT SCRAPS "Back from the Past"

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. Well, it has finally turned cold here in the south. It's only getting up to 40 here today and they are talking about SNOW tomorrow ...... wait, what? It never snows here in the South before Christmas and even after Christmas it's few and far between. Except for last year, that is. We had a beautiful white Christmas here last year and it had been around 35 years since we had a white Christmas. Is it too much to ask for 2 in a row? Would love to see it again.

Alrighty, are you ready for our BACK FROM THE PAST themed post today from ALL THAT SCRAPS? All of the DT are using winter images that are at least a year old. Yay!!!! Love dragging out my older stamps that haven't seen love in a while. I used C.C. Designs Sugarplum Teddy Emma for my main image. I used AmyR's Snowman Sentiment set for the sentiment on the outside of the card and AmyR's Handy Christmas Greetings Sentiment set for the inside of the card. I also used the Mistletoe die. Here is my card with a funky Christmas color theme.



Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure you head over to the ATS blog to check out what the rest of the DT has done today. Have a great day friends.

Hugs,

ALL THAT SCRAPS - Review Preview of November Stamps

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. Beautiful, beautiful weather here in the South this week. Been out enjoying it before the cold weather hits. I just adore Fall, one of my fav times of the year. It has finally cooled down from the stifling heat of a GA summer.

It's time today to show you another peak at some of the images that are new this month at ALL THAT SCRAPS. For my card today I used the adorable HELLO BIRGITTA. This cutie pie could be used for any occasion. The sentiment is from the AMY R SNOWMAN SENTIMENTS. The paper is from SU. (BTW, I have found some new friends in town to do SU together once a month and I am now joining them. It's so nice to make new friends.) Here is my card.


Thanks so much for stopping by my little 'ole blog today. Be sure to head over to the ATS Blog to check out what else is being shown today using the new November stamps. Have a great day my sweet friends.
