Christmas Trees

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

I hope that you are looking forward to lots of turkey and fixings tomorrow, and that you are lucky like me and someone else likes to do the cooking.  I have several things for you today.

First, I have updated my classes for December, please check them out on the Classes tab.

Second is a reminder to order your goodies out of the holiday catalog soon because you can only order through the end of December.

And Third, I have a quick rundown on how I made this fabulous tree featured on the front of the new catalog.  Warning:  this isn't an in depth tutorial!

 



Basically I followed the tutorial here with minor changes.  I used my Cricut Craft Room to cut down the width of all the pieces instead of doing it by hand.  I have the CCR file if you would like it.  Then I used the CTMH sparkle paper to do the snowflakes, and I made the star with washi tape and some stamping.  A foundry pin clip is holding the star on.  Here is a close up of the star. 

It takes a full 3 sheets of the sparkle and shine paper and 1/3 sheet of the sparkly paper and a sheet of white daisy.

I hope that your Thanksgiving is full of food and Family and time for Crafting!!!

New Constant Campaign

Hello!

It has been a busy month!  And I have done a lot towards the album I am working on but I haven't had time to get pictures taken so you will just have to imagine the fabulousness of the layouts  :)

I also found time to make the invites for Son's 4th birthday and I did take pictures, but my New (less than 1 year old) computer had to go on a trip to get a new motherboard.   So I will post them later when I have access to the pictures.  Oops!

I have posted new classes for November.  Please let me know ASAP if you would like to join me.  Lots of Holiday joy in the making!

Close to My Heart has a new incentive for anyone willing to join my team.  Sign up to be a new consultant this month (until December 15) and you get a great new product for free that is not even available to ME! until January. 

 

 

Lastly,  I wanted to share the news with you now that we are 1/2 way there.  The family and I are expecting a new addition in March.  I am 20 weeks this week and we have just found out that it will be a boy!  We are very excited.  So if you have been wondering why I have been out of the loop it isn't just school work that is keeping me busy, I have been really tired with this one!  I view it as another excuse to scrap baby pictures.  :)

 

Happy Crafting!!!
