It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

I'm back again with a few things to share... hope everyone had a marvelous day... i had an alright day at work... busy busy which was good because time flew on by... came home to another happy mail... got my winning stamp set - Katie Christmas - from the Little Paper Shop Blog! Yay! so ripped open the package stamped an image and headed out the door to check out my favorite (haha, ok, only) craft store, BFC... didn't get much since i know all the things i want (since it's still early) will go on sale sometime soon (i hope)... came home and hopped into blogland and found out my Frog Princess card for the Deidrich Dare was chosen winner... double Yay!!! all this good news just made my day extra special... Thank you to Jessica and her daring kiddies, the fabby DT at LPS and YOU! for all the encouragement and support... now onto my post, my DD#2 has a little message for you all... from Alia: Hi Auties!!! yes, without the "n" is how she pronounces the word... told her i was going to snap a pix of my card and she turned around and said cheeeese! then she asked, "what that?" so i said i was going to show it to the aunties... that's when she said "Hi Auties!" she just makes me laugh...
and now here's my card for the Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential 2 Challenge.... the DT wants to see you dress up those trees!!! this Christmas tree is part of the Katie Christmas stamp set as well as the "oh Christmas tree" sentiment... this was the image i had stamped earlier... click on the picture to enlarge and you'll be able to see all the details... i went with non-traditional colors... cut out a window of the layering DP over the stamped image... added some blue and white rhinestones with a blue star for a topper... the DPs are by Mind's Eye... and of course i had to off set some snowflakes...
after making this card i asked the DH if i could put up our Christmas tree... his reply: "Are you crazy?"... LOL, yes i am... he said if i keep asking i won't be able to put it up until Christmas Eve... Ha! we'll see about that... LOL...
Thanks for stopping by and sharing a few with me.... hope to bring you more creations soon! xoxo!!!
