Card 2

On the next one I used another card base from Hot Off The Press and the gingerbread man is from From My Kitchen cart. The paper for the gingerbread man is Bazzill basics. The ribbon is from Michael's and the stamp is from Scrappy Cat Clear Stamps. The holly is from my stash.

Thanksgiving cards

I only made 2 Thanksgiving cards this year. This first one I made, I got the idea from one I saw on Cardz TV with Mary. I thought it would be so cute for my 5 year old grandson. I used Doodlecharms for the roasted turkey and Create-a-Critter for the other one.

The inside said, "For Thanksgiving Tom Turkey has only two words to say to you, "Eat ham!!"
 He thought it was pretty funny.

The other one I made was for my 3 year old grandson. I used Stretch Your Imagination for this turkey.

Another card

This card was made for my namesake granddaughter, Miranda Catherine. She is so much like me :) We are both such Chocoholics!! When I was looking for paper to make her card, I found this really cool paper full of chocolate chips. I knew I had to use it!
This is what I came up with.

The verse is so cute!

A Little Behind

It seems like my days go by so fast. I haven't been on the computer much because I've been knitting and crocheting a lot. I knitted my first pair of socks from toe up using the magic loop. The yarn I used was wool and mink. I wore them to Cory's football game and I'm glad I did! They were so warm!
The pair I'm working on now has a pattern on the top, but not too complicated. That yarn is wool, bamboo, and nylon. I hope they are warm, too.
Ok now for some of the cards I made for December birthdays.
This first one was made for Bill and Deb's anniversary. Not much Cricut on this, just a scalloped circle.

The next card I made was for my Mother's birthday. Again no Cricut on this one. I love how it came out.

The next one I made is for Julie's birthday. I tried something new for this one. I found this pattern on Splitcoaststampers.

Lots of cards to be made in Oct.

The next birthday in Oct. is Justin's. His is on the 26th. I used the Paisley Cartridge for the owl and branch.

The next birthday is Randy's. His is on the 27th. He turned 9. I used the Cars cartridge for Lightning McQueen. I love that movie!!

Next is Missy's birthday on Halloween. I used the Heritage Cartridge for the tea set and tray. It so reminds me of Missy!

My friend, Janice, had a death in her family last week. Her mom passed and I needed to make a sympathy card for her. I used Storybook Cartridge for the swirly frame and oval.

Cory's birthday is Dec. 14, but Bill and Deb are having a combined birthday party for Randy and Cory on Nov.13. So here is Cory's card. I used Make-the-Cut software to make this. Found the clip art online. I also used Graphically Speaking for the 10's.

October's happenin's

Faith went on her first date with Tyler. They went to the homecoming banquet for Church of the Open Door. It was held at Gargus Hall. She looked so grown up!!

Barb's grandson got married on Oct. 3, so I made a wedding card for them.

Next was Faith's 14th birthday on October 10.

Then my brother, Mike's, birthday was the 16th. Here is the card that I sent to him.
