Sweet cards

Happy Thanksgiving one day late ya'll! Its been go time around here with me getting my car fixed and the holidays, then you add in my final projects due for my classes. I have to tell you I am SO over Elder Law. I really can't stand that class. Its official. Its worse than Bankruptcy Law. Yep.. thats right. WORSE. I'm just ready to be out. I don't even care what grade I get at this point.

I've signed up for Criminal Litigation next semester and Writing and Research. I do want to take the Criminal Lit class, but I'm kinda not really thrilled about the Writing and Research. Oh well.

I made two cards this week for Jingle Belle's sweet challenge. I'm so bummed this is the last challenge. I really didn't get as many of them done as I would have liked this year. Next year I will aim to play along more!
























BG pp flowery background, Cosmo Cricket digital Xmas kit printed out candy canes, Holiday sticker unknown. Stripped pp unknown, Bazzill cardstock, MM red circle sticker, white bracket thickers, red distress inks, Season sticker-SRM sticker.

I made two. I'm up to 23 cards made for this season. Not too shabby. I think that will be enough for the cards I send out this year.


















The letter stickers are old MM stickers, and Heidi Swapp stickers, White thicker number stickers, BG stripped paper, Michael's red ribbon and the gingerbread pp is Cosmo Cricket. The paper punch I used on the bottom paper is Martha Stewart snowflake.

I've been considering what I want for Christmas this year. I really would like a Keurig coffee maker. Do any of you have one of these? I'm leaning toward that. I'm also leaning toward possibly some jewelry or more make up items. I just don't know. I'm so undecided this year. What are all of you asking for??

Organization wiz

I've been obsessing lately. Not about art supplies or makeup at the moment, but organizational items. I've really been wanting to get things together in my home so that I can use the small space we have to its ultimate potential. I mean whats the point in feeling cluttered and not being able to find anything? I'm a bit type A on most days, but this blows me into a Type A personality superhero with a cape. Just to clarify, no the majority of my closets still are "befores".

First I worked on my linen closet. I forgot to take a before picture. This is good and bad. Bad because you don't get to see the before nastiness, but good because I would totally be mortified to show you how sad and messy it looked before. Really..it was horrifically bad.



















I bought all the green and white fabric containers at Target. The top shelf with all my medicine supplies have to be kept up there because of Leo. I can't keep them in my guest bathroom because he can access all the areas there and I don't want to still have child locks on the front of the cabinets. It all fits up there pretty good. I made the tags with white scrapbooking tags and inked them with distress blue ink. Then I sprayed them with green mist spray. I stamped the labels on them with a CTMH stamp alpha set.













I now can fit my vacuum in this hall closet which makes me very happy. Before it wouldn't fit and I'd have to shove it out into the garage. I really need one more closet in this house like a coat closet, but unfortunately living in FL they don't typically put these in.

I also wanted to share the lovely cool postcard from Lauren. She sent it to me from Hawaii. How cool right? It totally made my day. Thanks Lauren!! I love it. Today I had to turn in my car to get fixed. I hope it comes out looking good. I'm so nervous about it. I had to cancel my surgery because of insurance reasons, so I will be around in blogland. Love you all! Thanks for stopping by!

Skelly love

I did actually finish this month's digital calendar. I'm just trying to keep up with things. The next two months are going to be busy! Here's what I made.





























I read three books this month. I've really been in a reading mood lately. I had to sign up for classes for next semester today. We had a great Halloween. I miss you all. I'll post more soon when I get a chance. I have a book review to post and some product reviews. :)
