All Better…

Christie — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 18:17:36 +0000

I fixed it! The 22nd of December will be a happy day at our house again.

Thanks for the suggestions!

The first person to see the mistake was Kate. Because of her sharp eye and quick commenting, she will be receiving this in the mail:

It snowed today…I love it when the world turns quiet and white…peaceful.

Tomorrow is December 1st! I love this time of year…the excitement, the togetherness, the good will.

Do you love December as much as I do?

I hope you have a cozy day!

xoxo, Christie

I hope that you had a wonderful and safe Halloween!

We had a lot of fun here! I was able to snap a couple of photos of the kids before they headed off to school yesterday. The sun wasn’t even up yet so the photos aren’t that great.

Izabelle was Luna Lovegood.

And Parker was a Half-Zombie-Cowboy.

Apparently someone stepped on his grave so only half his face was zombie-fied. What can I say? The boy has imagination.

Happy November!

I can’t believe I just typed the word “November”. This year has FLOWN by!

She Had Three Hearts + No Tricks, Just Treats WINNER!

Christie — Mon, 10 Oct 2011 22:47:20 +0000

Do you Art Journal?

Last June I took Christy Tomlinson’s online art journaling class called, She Had Three Hearts.

I learned about so many new mediums during Christy’s class.

My art journal opened so many new ideas for mixed-media projects,

along with helping me connect with my inner-artist again.

I highly recommend Christy Tomlinson’s class!

I just arrived home from California late yesterday, more coming on that soon…I have projects to share!

Summer Stash #3 Winner! Happy 4th of July!

Christie — Mon, 04 Jul 2011 17:40:10 +0000

It’s a GORGEOUS day! I hope you’re enjoying it!

We spent the morning watching the 4th of July parade down Main street.

I work at my father’s lighting store during the week…snapped a few photos of the big “Wolfe Lighting” light bulb.

This box truck is full of balloons. The girl in the red hat is my baby sister, she was in charge of handing out frisbees & balloons.

Izabelle rode along with my Dad, they threw frisbees too.

It wouldn’t be Idaho without a tractor…

I hope you enjoy this glorious day!

The Summer Stash #3 Winner is:

Sam Wright!

Thanks for all your sweet comments! Stay tuned for the next Summer Stash giveaway!

Some Simple Cards + Summer Stash Winner #2

Christie — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 14:54:52 +0000

A couple cards I put together quickly with the scraps on my desk.

I always feel a weird throwing my scrap paper away (although I have been known to throw away more than I should from time to time). I already have a paper-hoarding problem. Speaking of hoarding:

The winner of my Summer Stash Giveaway #2 is…

Cheryl Rodda!

Stop back by next week, I’m having another giveaway (I really am trying to reduce my stash).

Have a happy day!

A Little Melissa Frances + A WINNER!

Christie — Sat, 18 Jun 2011 17:03:49 +0000

OK. Because this layout is a baby shower gift, there is no photo.

I still had to share the little details anyway…

I absolutely LOVE this Melissa Frances paper, it is so soft and beautiful. Perfect for a baby layout, don’t you think?

For these hearts I made my own stencil using my Cricut machine.

I also painted a little heart on a circle of canvas.

Now, I just need to put this layout in a shadow box and wrap it.

Moving on…

The WINNER of the Summer Stash Giveaway is: Emily T.

Stay tuned for more chances to win, I have more giveaways coming soon!

xoxo, Christie

Prize Package #3 ($50 value) goes to:

Cathy Rothwell

“Wow, how can I pick one when they are so wonderful? I guess I will have to let my heart rule and pick the Judy Garland piece. You see, I lost my mother and best friend last August. She lived with me for the last 11 years of her life and I had the honor of caring for her in her last hours. We shared a love of musicals and anything with Judy in it was a favourite. Anytime I hear “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” it takes me back to happier times when she was young and strong and I was her little girl. Cathy R.”
