What a Year!

I can't believe 2010 is coming to an end, what an amazing year! I am so thankful for my supportive family, wonderful husband, the best of friends, and all the love you give Meesh's Pieces! How about another Christmas card to end the year?! My Mom absolutely adores our family tabby, Bijou! Cheers to a new year full of hope and love!

Guest Crafter

My dear friend Jen was home for the Holidays and wanted to craft! She actually thought my Cricut Empression was pronounced "Cry-cut," too funny! We ended up saying Cricut her way for the rest of the evening! Jen definitely warmed up to my craft room and ended up assisting me on my family projects. Surprisingly, she enjoyed her time and looks forward to crafting again. Her Beaver card turned out adorable!

Day 3 of 5 Days till Christmas

Welcome to Day 3! Who doesn't love a cute snowman or snow couple? Their winter accessories turned out perfect especially the "Giants" theme that one of my clients requested below!
