Christmas Handmade Card Cricut Deer

This is a handmade card that I made using the Christmas Noel Cricut cartridge that I bought on Black Friday while Christmas Shopping with my daughter. She also bought the same cartridge. To see her card go to www.deesdivinedesigns.blogspot.com . I think this cartridge is so cute. It's one of my favorites. I haven't used my Cricut machine for some time, but wanted to use this cartridge. I love the deer and there is 3 different deers to choose from on the Christmas Noel cartridge. The basics and foundations are so cute and you can create so many cute scrapbookng items with for Christmas.

Holiday Fruit Salad

This is a Holiday Fruit Salad that I decided to make for Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow. I just couldn't wait to fix this salad ever since I saw it at http://www.southernplate.com/. I'm taking a break and thought I would post this for you. I got this recipe from Christy at www.southernplate.com . If you would like to try the recipe please visit her site. She has this posted on her site and it's fantastic. This is one of my most favorite site. I just bought an E -Mail cookbook from her, and just can't wait to try more new recipes. She cooks just like my family and some of the recipes are so much similar. I'm getting ready to make two pecan pies for tomorrow. I might even try Christy's pecan recipes.

Happy Thanksgiving

Christmas Star Album













Christmas Star Album
This is a Star Album that I created this afternoon. I love the star album for some very special reason. It's unique and I love how it opens. You tie the star together with ribbon to display it.
My daughter also created one this afternoon. It was our very first time creating this type of album. I like to display it open. You can add your favorite photos, and memos to the album. It would be a nice album to display on a desk at work esp around Christmas time. Please go to
to see my daughter's star album and cards that she creates.

Snowman Handmade Christmas Card. I really like the colors of this card. I have used colored pencils, ink, embossed and glittered on this card.

The snowman has been placed on pop-ups and I have used the Nestability dies. I have lined the inside of the envelope to match and also decorated the back of the card with coordinating paper.

~Merry Christmas~ Scrapbook Acrylic Album






I created this Acrylic 6" x 6" Merry Christmas Scrapbook Album and sold it on EBay. This was one of the first acrylic album that I created. I really enjoyed making this one. It's a lot easier than you think. I always like to see the changes in the album when you add all of the embellishments. I'm planning on creating one for this Christmas season!!
