3rd Place!!

The place I get all my crafts from has a new blog, for Christmas they were having a contest and they wanted people to send in their crafts they have done. I did that for the 2 SNOW, eLf and JOY I did. I got a phone call today from The Wood Connection, I got 3rd Place for SNOW! I won a $10 gift certificate! YAY! I am so excited. I feel like I am always THAT person who never wins anything. So check out The Wood Connection website!

I'm Back

I didn't realize it has been this long since I posted.

Well, the holidays are here again. I love this time of year! I got my tree up before Thanksgiving. I got a new tree this year, after 10 years of the other tree (that I had of it) it was time to get rid of it. Mom had it before in her classroom, so it's done its duty. I also got new ornaments. I kept looking at the tree after I had it up for a while, it just looked like something was missing. I realized that it needed icicles. I dug thru my cedar chest and found the pack of icicles that mom got for me a few years ago that are exactly the kind we had growing up. I just put a few around the tree. It made my tree so perfect.

I have really enjoyed doing a lot of christmas crafts this year. I did 3 just this past week.



I tried the scrapbook paper on the "L", and it was so easy and turned out really good!


This one is my favorite!

Last year it seemed like I didn't really get to enjoy Christmas at my new apartment because I was moving in the month of December. This year, I have taken full advantage of it.

I hope I will be better at posting. I just want to tell my family Happy Holidays! Thank you for everything you have done for me this past year. I love you all!
