LOVE YOU.............................

Hello everyone...so was Santa good to ya this year.....We had a wonderful quite Christmas...just the way I love it....Okay I must say when it comes to Christmas decorations, I am eager to put them up....BUT then when Christmas is over I am SO EAGER to put them down....I guess you can call me a SCROOGE in that area...but hey I put my decorations up like 3 days BEFORE Thanksgiving....anyhoo here is a card using two of the new Valentine's Day files from The Cutting Cafe....VALENTINE'S DAY MINI WORDS (FILE TO BE RELEASED SOON) and FUN WITH VALENTINE'S DAY....I changed the color of the heart border to pink to match my ever so favorite pink and creme ribbon from Stampin up...I am so hating that I am almost out of this color...so it will be retiring soon...gotta get a new favorite color....I am sure you all are a bit tired of seeing that ribbon used on so many of my projects....

THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW NEW VALENTINE SETS...CLICK HERE TO SEE ALL OF THEM

Well join me tomorrow for a review of some of my favorite projects/cards from 2010...HUGS

Wow I can't believe that Christmas is like only a few weeks ahead...I can at least say I got all of my kids teacher's gifts just about wrapped up....this box with a snowflake cut out is one of 5 new boxes with Christmas cut outs available over at the Cutting Cafe....I ended up cutting out another snowflake from the middle of the box and added a bit of glitter to it and adhered it to the front of the box....see the little circle word..well that is from a set called MERRY CHRISTMAS TO MY TEACHER...perfect tag to put on a little package for your kids teachers this holiday....This little box is also for the POLKA DOODLES: (project to hold a gift)....geesss seems like forever since I have done a challenge....those ladies have some fantastic projects over there...

Next up is a SNOWFLAKE SHAPED CARD...I used another phrase from the MERRY CHRISTMAS TO MY TEACHER in the inside and had Benjamin sign his name....ALSO IF YOU PURCHASE THE FULL SET OF BOXES WITH THE CUT OUTS...you get this SNOWFLAKE SHAPED CARD SET FOR FREE....through midnight Wednesday the 8th of December....

CAMERA SHAPED PHOTO HOLDER.......................

Do you ever take a bunch of photos and just end up sending family and friends some of the photos just in a plain envelope...or worst yet through the computer and they have to print them out themselves..well the Cutting Cafe just released a CAMERA SHAPED PHOTO HOLDER and Camera shaped card that you can put those photos in......This first holder I made is for the girl that I am doing a baby shower for this weekend...I thought after I take all the photos at the baby shower, I will then send them to her in the mail in this holder..the little tag on the holder is from the BABY MINI WORDS....
And yes I have been using that pink and white ribbon like crazy...I can't get enough of it..it is by stampin up..width is 1 1/4...love it....I only have the pink and red and white....AND I WANT THEM ALL....hint hint to any of my relatives that might be reading my blog and want to send me some (smile)..for all of you that might want to get some...Ms. Lillie is a demonstrator and can hook ya up..go here for details..number is 119775...but that is only for the pink and white.
Okay back to the holder....the photos inside are just some photos I put in there to show how the photos look inside the holder....the photos are of my sweet little niece...

Okay up next is another photo holder, but I did it with the new PHOTO BACKGROUND paper...love the look of hot pink and black...this time I put a ribbon going around the entire holder...the cupcake is from the ALL ABOUT CUPCAKES set from the Cutting Cafe...look for a video to come soon on making this....HUGS

CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT SET....................

Now I know these ornaments are not your traditional Christmas colors....but I simply couldn't resist using this paper pad by SEI that I just got from Scenic Route the other day....(yes they now sell other stuff at discounted prices)....I used the new CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT FUN set from The Cutting Cafe this is really really really a fun set of templates and cutting files...no need to worry about your cutting skills if you don't have a cutting machine or the scal software to cut out with your cricut...these are pretty easy to hand cut...the set comes with lots of fun stuff...sevaral nesting ornaments, shaped card, folded card and borders....I then used the SQUARE BOX WITH DIVIDERS to put these 4 ornaments into...I cut out the ornament on the top of the box myself...just so that you could see the ornaments in the box....
Have a fantastic day....hugs
