25 Days of Christmas: Day 6

 Hey Diva's! I am sorry about these late posts but I just can't seem to get to my laptop before 4pm to get these posts up. Most of the time I make my projects @ night because that's when I have "PEACE" around here and I like to wait til daylight to take my pics because I love the Natural light better. I think I'm going to have to make a Light Box b/c this is just becoming to be ALOT. If you all know of any good tutorials on light boxes let me know.

Todays Card was fun to make, I hadn't made an easel card in forever. As you all know I love the "Twisted Easel" style but hadn't played around much with just the regular "Easel" style. I am pleased w/ how it turned out. What do you all think?

25 Days of Christmas: Day 3

Hey Divas! So today is Day 3 of my 25 Days of Christmas Project but before I start I need to inform you on a couple of things! First off Kristal Andrew of Getting Cricky is looking for Featured Crafters on her Blog. If you are into paper, altered art, stamping, digi coloring, upcycling or ALL OF THE ABOVE and more SHE WANTS YOU!! Being featured on her blog is a great way to share your art w/ others and also to inspire them! She is also very sweet into offering all featured bloggers a 40% discount on your next purchase of her stamps! Now that really ROCKS!! If you are intersted contact Deborah Foti @ ustoleit@comcast.net.

Second, there is a new challenge going on over @ MAG Challenge by the page. This weeks Challenge is to use the Stretch Your Imagination Cartridge pg. 52. Remember that you are asked to use the cartridge and page specified ONLY! Stop by and see all the Awesome project Inspiration the Design Team has for you and then come join in on the fun, we look forward to having you!!

Last but definitely not least I wanted to remind you of the My Sheri Crafts Decorate for Christmas Challenge that is still going on. You still have a few days to get your projects in so get busy busy busy guys remember Crafting Fingers are Happy Fingers!!

Now onto to the project for today, I want to say that this card is by far not my favorite but I didn't become to dislike it as much as I do now until I asked Crew member 1 and his Father ( did you notice I'm not his friend right now so he's not "babe" or "the hubster" lol) what they thought and they both immediately didn't like it and gave me a whole laundry list of reasons why they didn't like it. MEN I tell you the truth, they had me hating this card by the end of the night so much so that I didn't want to even post it. I was going to just start all over from scratch but I told myself "Not every project is going to be our favorite" but that doesn't mean that Someone is not going to like it! So I am taking one for the team and I am posting it anyway!! I will let you all decide, How do you feel about this card ( tell the truth guys I wanna see if the men are right on this one lol).

Recipe:
