This Year I Will.....

It's that time of year again. Where I sit back and reflect on another year gone by. This year I decided not to look back and wish I could have done things differently but rather to look ahead and see what I can change this year.

I created a journal tag that exposes those changes and I will share it as a freebie so you can share back. All I ask is that you not directly share this kit. Send your friends here where I will keep this link posted.

I would however love to see your journal tag filled out so come back and link it here in the comment section.

As I type this post Damien is upstairs cleaning the after effect of 3 parties. YUP you heard right. wowzers.....I'm tired ! However it was so worth it....the kids had a ball and it was so nice to see them interact with their cousins & aunts and uncles. Isabella was completely spoiled and was quite the Princess. Speaking of Isa here is a picture of her I took I haven't shared yet:



I am so ready to start scrapping this month. It was nice taking the month off but I came to the realization that I am just plain grouchy when Im not allowed to be Creative ! hehehe I especially realized this when I heard Damien say the other day "Go Downstairs and Make Something...will You !" hehehe

Well I really don't have anything to share since I have not created in over a month but I do have a few things I made a while ago I just forgot to post.

This card was another custom Etsy job.



This next project was a Wedding Card sample I created. It got picked up for a magazine publication and I never posted it here. All of the cardstock used to create it is from www.cutcardstock.com I used their Wausau Royal Linen in Midnight Blue for the outside and for the inside I used the Crystal Stardream in the #65. It was perfect because it was light weight enough to use in my HP printer and because its a metallic cardstock the text and image remained wet long enough for me to wet emboss it.


Speaking of publications. I just received my copies of the November "Simply Handmade" magazine. I have 2 publication projects in there so if you get a chance to pick it up take a peek and let me know what you think.

I am also excited to share that My Little Shoebox has put out their new winter release.
Helen has created some spectacular lines so make sure to swing by the MLS blog and take a peek at all the lines. Here is my fave called "Imaginary Friends"...sooo stinkin CUTE & I Love Them All Helen !




Wishing You a Blessed and Creative New Year !
Warmly, Norma ♥
