Young Women's Service Project





Put together several kits for the YW to assemble (and add their own personalities) to).  Packets will be going to the Missionaries from and in our Ward and District for them to mail home. 


Cut two types of Gingerbread men, one from Paper Dolls Dress Up and the other from Christmas Village (girls can decide which one they want to use).  Paper from stash (probably from an old Stack).  Will have lots of bling and glitter for them to decorate.


Card from Wild Cards (Stitched), paper and ribbon from stash.



Penguin from Create a Critter, paper, ribbon and sentiment from stash. 



Santa from Joys of the Season, used Cuddle Bug to pop Santa's beard.  Paper from stash.


Angel cut from Christmas Village.  Paper from stash, last of this really neat paper I had, light blue with embossed silver stars.  Don't remember where I found it.

And the reason for the season, Baby Jesus.  Cut Him from Paper Dolls Dress Up.  Sentiment was one of those $1 stamps from M's.  The card needs something, but I just can't think of what.  Perhaps the girls will come up with something.


Hope the girls have as much fun as I did.  I won't be able to be there in that I have Cubs at the same time.  Maybe I can bounce back and forth from both meetings.

This cartridge is so much fun to work with.  When I first saw the boxes posted in someone's (can't remember whoes) blog, I just had to have it.

Maybe next year I'll attempted the Haunted House.

Eagles (Duck) Landing



The apartment complex we live in is called "Eagles Landing".  Today we received a flier from the leasing office that they will be relocating 60 ducks.  It seems that this year's migration has attracted way too many flocks.  They are everywhere on the property.  With the warm fall we've been having, not only do we have the migrating ducks, the local residents are multiplying.   I think the name of the complex should be changed to "Ducks Landing". :)

Meet JoJo





Here's the story that goes with these pictures.  The smoke detector battery needed replacing and was making that beeping sound.  Evidently, the noise was driving the dogs crazy.  JoJo crawled into the dryer trying to find a place to hide.  Anthony was trying to convince him that it was safe to come out.

Made by Momo Tuesday Challenge



Here goes my very first entry into a challenge.  Many moons ago when I was doing Christmas craft fairs, I came up with the idea for this card.  I've changed it up some for the challenge.  I used the Cricut AK cart, head feature, and pastel chalks to give them cute faces.

On October 7 an awesome group of ladies from my church got together to make Christmas cards to send to the troops for them to send home for the holidays.  We had  F U N and made close to 100 cards.
