Ooops Big Mistake on my part.....

Oh My Goodness, I made a big mistake, I put the wrong blog for my winnings. I am so sorry Viv. The blog I won the Peachy Keen Stamps from was Viv's blog http://craftinghaven.blogspot.com/ please go and check her out, she does the most beautiful work. She ended up sending me two sets of stamps, what a sweetheart she is. Please go and visit her blog and give some love. Viv, sorry about the mistake on blogs names, just wasn't thinking I guess.
We are getting snow in MN right now, suppose to have a big load drop on us over the next few days. Hoping it misses us for the most part and we don't get as much as expected. Although we do need the moisture and the insulating it does to our homes in the winter.
Hope you all are having a wonderful February so far.

Winner, Winner, chicken dinner & Update on me

I won some wonderful blog candy around New Years at http://bingecrafter.blogspot.com, you really need to go over and check out her blog, such wonderful projects she does. I won some Peachy Keen Stamps from her blog and they are so cute. She is a wonderful lady so be sure to stop over and give her some love.
Now for the update, I have my Mom back living with me and we will be working on some projects on her good days. So happy she is back with me, I missed having her around and our little talks. I have learned a great deal about my childhood and extended family. Love hearing the stories. Now I have had a bout with my diabetes, it had went over 500 and I got so sick with it. So right now I am still on pills and doing a carb diet so hoping that works or I end up on insulin shots which is not something I care to do. Otherwise I am doing good. Enjoying my time with my Mom and my family.
Will be sharing soon I promise, so hang in there.

Cricut Craft Room & Blog Hop

Cricut is working on a room for us to create in. You will hook your Cricut up to your computer and with Cricut Craft Room you can design and create plus weld all kinds of things in this. I am really looking forward to this as I want to be able to weld my images and words together so I can make cards and scrapbook pages. Right now I have nothing to be able to do that. It is like an updated version to Design Studio that Cricut has, only you will be doing it online. I can't wait until the release of the room to go in and play and create. I believe it opens up to everyone the end of April or May. I will let you know when it opens up.

In the meantime here is a card I did for a friend for his birthday. I love how it turned out.

This didn't turn out very clear for some reason but it is great IRL. Our friend is really into deer hunting and each year he gets a deer I make him a card. He has kept every card, but this one I am real proud of the way it turned out. On the outside it says "Off To" and on the inside it says "The Woods" I shaded the words and also did a brown dashed line all around the outside edge of the words. The deer plate behind the deer head is also stitched. I shaded all images with choc. chip ink from SU. You can tell I have not uploaded anything in awhile as this should of been together but you get the idea. I used Cricut Animal Kingdom in this card.

Thanks for stopping by. Be sure and check out the other Blog Hop creations, you will love seeing all the fun creations. You can start here at Karin's Blog.

Let's Go Sledding........

I found a fun snowman on a round sled on France's blog and fell in love. So had to give him a try. I am making some as ornaments and then am going to make some for some homemade cookbook pages I am doing for my 3 kids. I am thinking homemade Hot Chocolate Recipe and this on the page. These are so much fun to make and go pretty quickly.

I then got to thinking if we can do a snowman on a sled why can't we do kids on the sled to! So I put my cobwebs to work as my brain is just fried anymore, you know to much to do, not enough hours in a day type of thing. So I came up with this little guy and will also be doing more ornaments and page elements with the kids. I am also going to be making a little girl one and will share that one later on. So what do you think??

And beings this was not my idea and I don't have the right to give the recipe out for the snowman I will not be adding that info. Sorry but you can go to France's blog and see what she did. Even though I did change mine from hers a little bit. She used different punches than I did.

Wishing you all the Happiest of Holidays!
