If the mountain wont come to Mohammad...


Well folks I didn't get everything I wanted for Christmas, so I got it my damn self..lol. I was really wishing and hoping I'd get my Spellbinder and some shapeabilities or borderabilities.. something named funny like that... but no such luck. So I decided to use my "rainy day" money and invested. It sounds better if I say "invested" rather than say "spend". Unfortunately because of Christmas and New Years being so close together, it'll take longer than usual to be delivered... but no worries, it'll be hear before I'd remember I'd ordered it. Anyhoo, I thought I'd fill you guys in on my creative dry spell for now and I'll keep you posted. Tooddles!

Sorry about that.

Hi Folks! So sorry I've been busy these days... 'tis the season... lol  Also I've been holding out on doing any more creations, beacuse I'm really hoping for a special christmas present ... a "Spellbinder wizard" ..(hint, hint) ;)

In the meantime, I'm in the middle of organizating a big New Years party, and of course the invites are handmade. So I might as well display them and maybe by January I'll be posting new creations like a mad woman!





My sis and I can up with these colors to set a theme for the gala night. You can't go wrong with these and it definately makes it more regal. I started with SU! A brand new year, on whisper white card stock, layered with basic black, and made the whole card with basic gray. Then I used a trifold to add more anticipation for the individual who opens the invite. I found this awesome printed paper at the local craft store that was just right for the colors we were going for. I also found this very inexpensive clear stamp set that had the "time, place, etc" them and I added the filagree design from the SU! Baroque set with silver ink for more elegant look. And finally I used an organza ribbon to top is off. I think it turn out just right for a the budget we're working with. Thank you for stopping by, and if I don't post anything any time soon, .... Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Tooddles.
