I was sorting through my photo files yesterday and it suddenly struck me that I had never shared this card from the September Up the Street Scrapbooking kit. Now how did that happen?!
It’s just a fun scrappy card with some very pretty ribbon.
I love creating cards where I just layer it all together and have some fun.
I have a huge list today so this post is short and sweet as I’m off to get started.
Seize the day!

Brrrr…..
Baby it’s cold outside and it is DEFINITELY mitten weather. We haven’t seen any snow yet but the nights are well below freezing and I know it’s on its way soon. The little boys can’t wait although, I for one can. Now that I’m finally mostly back on my feet there is so much catching up to do. First on the list is buying the little ones some new winter boots.
Mitten Weather Wall-Hanging
I was having some fun creative time last week and found this 6×6 paper mache wall hanging in my stock of things to alter. I love creating altered projects and it’s always nice to change up what you are creating. It recharges those creative batteries. I’m loving the fun color combo on this Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather paper. The hit of muted purple is so fresh for a Christmas line.
Quick Tip: Did you notice that Rudolph has a very shiny nose? A little clear crystal colored with a red Copic Marker makes it easy for him to “light the way”.
Supplies: Mitten Weather Paper Crafting Kit and chipboard by Cosmo Cricket, twine, crystals and crystal brads by Zva Creative, Labels Four Die by Spellbinders, sandpaper
Thanks for stopping by!

Recently my sweetie and I celebrated our 21st anniversary.
I love this man.
Reality was that he ended up taking care of a very sick wife for the actual date of our anniversary and we’ve ended up postponing a night away because I’m taking my own sweet time getting better. But that’s life, and marriage for that matter. Taking the good and the bad, hanging on tight and making the best of it. I couldn’t ask for a better man by my side. He’s got my back and I have his, and knowing this makes every challenge easier.
Today’s layout was created with the new November Up the Street Scrapbooking kit. Can I say that I love this kit? I bounced up and down when I got my first sneak peek. Absolutely stunning papers and embellishments that I’ve been dying to get my hands on all in one kit. Yay!
The kit is called Very Vintage. Like the name? Tara asked for a suggestion and so I got to name it. Go me!
you & i
I love the mix of papers Tara put together for this kit. Gorgeous Pink Pailee Sweetness, Crate Paper Restoration and Mix and Mend Sassafras Lass among others.
To highlight the years we’re been together, I’ve placed the accent title at the top right and stitched a circle around them.
Quick Tip: Changing your photos to black and white will make them go with anything. I also love the timeless look.
The chipboard and papers are sanded and layered to tie them all together.
Have a beautiful day!
