New "FAVORITES" challenge over at Fresh Brewed Designs....

Hi all!! Hope you all enjoyed your Christmas - and got to spend lots of family time! I did!! I would like to say that I hope you all have a very Happy New Year tomorrow as well!! (and that it lasts ALL YEAR long!)
Today I would like to share a card I have made for Fresh Brewed Designs new monthly challenge: Favorites.....how easy is that?!!
I pulled a couple of papers out the other day, and have been looking at these two together ever since, so decided that I loved the look of the two together-so I am using them for this card! I have also used a digi image from Fresh Brewed Designs for my card-this beautiful gal is called: Daffodil.
I also used a rubber sentiment stamp from Fresh Brewed-called Sweet Day-and it looks like there are still a couple available, so head on over to Fresh Brewed, and get one while you can!

Hope you get some extra time to join us!!

Thanks for stopping by-I always LOVE to read your comments!

Merry Christmas to all....and to all a Good Night!!

I hope all you folks out here in bloggy land, have a wonderful Merry Christmas, and a Happy, Healthy New Year!
See you soon!

Cardz TV "It's in the bag" challenge....

Hi all! Ready for a new challenge over at CARDZ TV?  Great,  I would like to share with you today the hand made Christmas bag I have made.

   Here is my bag..

and here is a side view...

I used Cardz TV Stamp set: "Christmas Critter Captions" for my sentiment.

For my project, I have used the small bag from 

The Cutting Cafe cutting file set:Christmas Bag Toppers-templates and cutting files. 

I didn't use the topper, but made my own, as I wanted to use this cute little Owl and branch from Cricut Design Space. I used my Explore to cut out my project. The cute little felt heart is from

  Fresh Brewed Designs, but I dont think they are selling them any longer.

Thanks so much for stopping by-hope you will get time to enter!!

Make sure you stop by and check out  (HERE)  what the rest of the DT made as well, I know they are awesome!!

Have a great weekend!
P.s. I have no idea why or how the word verification got on my blog....and I can not figure out how to make it go away..however, I hear that if you just just skip over it, and click on comment...it should just by-pass it...hope it works!!

how do I get rid of the word verification that just showed up on my blog??
