Purse Gift Card Holder

Hi peeps!

Hope you all had a great holiday. I love having my kids over any time but Christmas is my favorite time of the year, I'm like a BIG kid, I love seeing my kids open their gifts. I love the look on their faces when they open them, I think that's the best gift of all & warms my heart! OK enough of that...on to today's project.

I found this gift card holder on Angie's blog & on Dawn's blog & I just had to make one...well I actually made two but I will share the other one tomorrow. This is the one I made for Sarah & she loved it. At first she didn't realize it opened up & when she opened it she got an unexpected surprise! She was so funny.

Until tomorrow...thanks for stopping by I hope you have a great day!


I luv how this came out, it's so darn cute!

Hello everyone!

Just wanted to pop in to wish everyone a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! My kids are on their way here so I figured now was a good time to post. Have a great time & enjoy your family & friends today. Be back in a few days.

I wanted to share my Christmas table with you & show you what I made for every one's place setting.
I got this idea from Carolina she has a video on how to make these...aren't they so cute!!! The bottom cup holds carmel popcorn, the middle cup holds dove & Lindt chocolates & the hat holds a mint.


One snowman or girl for each place setting



3 Happy couples

More RAK's

Hello everyone!

Well we are bracing for that BIG storm, lots & lots of snow, I'll see a white landscape when I wake up in the morning (it's Saturday night around 9 PM, I just finished decorating the house) we are supposed to get around 15 to 20 inches right now but that could change by the time the storm gets here so I will let you know on Monday what we end up with, I just hope the electricity doesn't go out.

I put up the tree & decorations today & my plan is to wrap gifts all day today, so hopefully I can get to the rest of my Christmas cards & projects. I don't know about you but I feel Christmas really crept up on me this year or was it because I was sick & didn't feel like creating cause my energy was zapped by my cold & I fell so far behind but I'm not ready, I need at least 1 more week to get everything done. Next year I am going back to putting up my Christmas decorations the day before & after Thanksgiving! I haven't done that since the kids were in high school, then I slacked off 'cause they were older. I also need to start making Christmas cards during the year so I don't have to rush through making them. I may join in with Maria Bell & make one a week.

I recieved these awesome RAK's this week from Maria & Elena. Thank you so much ladies...I love them!

Well have a great day all & thanks for stopping by today! Keep warm & dry people!
