25 Days Til Christmas

Wow!! Can you believe that we only have 25 days until Christmas? This year has really flown by for me. I'm going to make it a point to do a layout that summarizes this year. My little girl has grown so much. I can't believe that she will be really soon. She's already asking for an MP3 player and she's only 4!! I asked her if she even knew what it was and she said, "Mommy, it's just a radio." LOL!! Well, excuse me for not knowing that a 4 year old would know what that was. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!

I looked at my last post and saw that it was on November 16th! I've really been slacking, so I've gotta work on that. Since it's so late, I won't chat endlessly...HAHAHAHA!! Here's what I've been working on. The Naughty or Nice card & tag are available in my Etsy shop. The other 3 are personal cards that I'll be mailing out soon. I'll chat later. :)

Just Talk and A Few Pictures...

Last week was pretty good. Since I was off work for Veteran's Day, my week went by pretty fast. I still can't believe that Christmas is only 38 days away!! Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?? Well, believe it or not, I've started mine, but now I have to stop because I'm BROKE!!! I need another pay day real soon!! I could harp on this subject forever, so I better move along. LOL!

Here are my latest Etsy goodies. The cards were made using an Oriental Trading Company template. I really love these and think that I will be back to get more soon. You can find my shop HERE or by selecting the Etsy gallery to the right. If you see something that you might like, but would prefer another color, please send me a note and I will be happy to do a custom listing.

I had my monthly Craft night with some friends on Friday. We had a blast as usual and I got 4 cards done. I'll try to post those this week. I have 31 personal Christmas cards to make and I finished 4 at Craft night. I did 3 at the last craft night so I've done a total of 7. I think I better speed up a little, huh?? LOL!! On another note, I got an order for 50 of those Christmas Tree tags, and 20 of those Snow Hat cards!! I'm so excited, but I need to get to work on those SOON!!! I need to have them finished 2 weeks before Christmas. I'll keep you posted on my progress with those. :)

It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas...

I've already got the Christmas Bug!! I've even started playing Christmas music. LOL!! It's my favorite time of the year, and I always look forward to it. So, since I was already in the Christmas spirit, I decided to start making Christmas goodies for my Etsy Shop. Here are my latest creation...Peppermint Chipboard Buttons!! These are handpainted and glittered! I love the way they turned out and it was so much fun creating them. I plan to use a few to make a frame ornament for my Mom's Christmas tree. I'll be sure to post pictures once I'm done.

Since, I'm feeling all cheerful, I thought this would be the perfect time for a give-away!! If you'd like to win a set of these Peppermint buttons, just reply to this post and tell me what's your favorite holiday and why?

I'll pick a random winner tomorrow night. Thanks for playing along with me!!
