Hello! Another fabulous black Friday come and gone....it's been our "family tradition" to dress in black and wear silly hats on black Friday and to go shopping at midnight until dawn. Well, this year my children were not with me so I invited some of my friends to join me in the fun.... This year I was "The Snow Queen of the South", my friend Deidre was Santa's Princess and Maria was Rudolph. We started shopping at 10 pm on Thursday and crashed at Cracker Barrel for breakfast at about 8:30 am the following day. Yes, I went to sleep at about 1 pm on Friday and got up the following morning at 7 am!!!! (That's what happens when you forget you are in your fifties...ha, ha, ha).
This is the Christmas card I designed for
The Pink Elephant Challenge. This is one of the fabulous digi stamps from the Puddle Jumper collection designed by Lori Boyd called "Nativity" and you can see more right
here.
I used a page of an old Hymn book as my background.
This card is made with the Lollipop Christmas Bundle I digi stamps, also designed by
Lori Boyd. I used puffy paint for their hats and Christmas boots.
I made this card using cardboard, burlap and my new leaf punch. It is posted today at

I love your getups you all wore on black Friday. I'm still catching up on my sleep, I know what you mean about 50's. Love the cards, my favorite is O Worship the King. Have a great day, Shari (cricutrookie)
ReplyDeleteYou look adorable! You're going better than me staying up that late, and I'm only in my 20s!!! Phew, I stayed up til midnight Friday and woke up at 6 am and by noon I was ready to go home and take my old lady nap =) Super cute cards and I love the new punch!
ReplyDeleteOMG, you look too adorable!!! What great pictures!!! Sounds like you have such fun on black Fridays; I don't think I know anyone who plans it as an "event" but I'm not surprised you do -- you always sound like you go for "the gusto" in life and I love that about you!
ReplyDeleteYour projects are so cute too! As always, you do have something to keep us tintillated and mouth watering -- LOL!
Hope you had a wonderful and Blessed thanksgiving too, my sweet and loving friend!
Hugs!
