Mojo 119 sketch challenge





I must admit, I love the Mojo Monday sketch challenge. Sometimes I will sit down to my table in my craft room and I have a hard time deciding what to do and sometimes I just don't feel that creative. Mojo Monday makes it easy for me to create a card. They give me a sketch and all I have to do is come up with a stamp and paper.

Here I have created some baby cards. I don't specifically have a baby stamp set but I do love this deer so I thought I could use it. Enjoy your day.

Paper: Pretty in Pink, or Bashful Blue, vanilla and choc. chip
Ink: Choc. Chip, Pretty in Pink or Bashful Blue
Stamps: Little Angel & Four friends (I think it's called)
Punches: none
Misc: circle scissor cutter, big shot, scallop die, texturz plates and vanilla ribbon

Scrapbooking from Christmas' Past




These are two scrapbooking pages I did years ago but I thought I would share them since the theme is Christmas. It's fun to look at our pages and see the old memories. I wish I could scrapbook all of life's memories but I guess that's not possible so I will just have to settle for a few.

Merry Christmas everyone.

My Digital Studio


These are my first attempts at the Digital Studio that Stampin Up offers. It was fun to create my own pages. Honestly it did take me awhile to get going and get use to the system. I plan to spend more time creating with it.

The pages are both of my neice Elizabeth. I enjoy her coming over to visit as we get to do "girl stuff". Making the dog biscuits for Christmas was a fun time. Elizabeth loved mixing and cutting the shapes out. The results, Lulu and her dog friends loved them!

Cookies in a Jar




These are my cookies in a jar I made this year. I think they make a quick & easy gift. We all have those people in our lives that we would like to get a little something but not sure what to get so these cookies in a jar are great for those people. I got this recipe from the bakerella website. It's the cowboy cookies. I just changed the pink M&M's to Christmas ones instead.
