Christmas Cheer and Joy of the Season dance....

This is what you get when you put two amazing Cricut cartridges together, a little time, and lots of love....

You can do so much with them! I ran a lot of the pieces thru the cuttlebug embossing folders to add dimension and they really popped up. I also inked all the edges with black ink to give it a vintage look. I added some metal (the tiny key at the door and the "happy together" next to the snowman. The snowflakes have pearl brads in the center. The poinsettia's leaves are  from Christmas decorations from Michael's. The snow is Puffy fabric paint. An of course, lots of rhinestones, stickles, layers and layers of Christmas papers.

Enjoy!

Christmas cards swap

I met a wonderful Stampin Up! lady here in town and she invited me to participate in her monthly card swap. I made this card using different Christmas Stampin Up sets and  their amazing papers. The nice thing about this company is that their inks match their papers, their ribbons, their markers, everything!

Peanut Festival Parade in Dothan, Alabama

Saturday's weather was perfect for the parade. It was very sunny and  in the 60's. I've never see so many queens together! Every little town  around Dothan had their float pulled by a tractor with 6 queens on it! From a baby to a teenager and some floats were from nursing homes which had their own pagent as well!
I love living in Dothan... the crisp air, the hospitality, the leaves changing and so many other beautiful things!
God is soooo good... all the time!
