Pretty in Pink Christmas

This is prolly gonna be my last card for the hop :(.  Just ran out of time and steam.  But it was fun to throw these together last minute without stopping to die cut, stamp, etc, 'cause I did that earlier this week!

Thinking of You at Christmas

If you read my previous post, you know that my Christmas cardmaking plans this last week went completely out the window!  I had these wonderful plans to make a card in each shape and some in strange color combinations and a shaker and--anyway, most of it didn't happen.  But I DID work pastels into this Christmas card AND it's not a typical Christmas card.  It's a Thinking of You card with a Christmas theme.  So at least I did that.

Just a few challenges:

• BYSHC Falling for the Holidays Link Up
• DL Art Linky Party
• Classic Design Team Challenge - #10 Anything Goes
• Leann's World - #55 Anything Goes
• BYSHC Sketch #27

Thanks so much for looking and happy Christmas crafting!  Laters!!

HOW IS IT ALMOST NOVEMBER?!?!?!?

I had ideas.  Plans.  Oh, how I had plans.  And then, life interfered.

This is the last day, last few hours, of the BYSHC Falling for the Holidays Link Up.  And I really planned to make a card, maybe more than one card, each day of the hop.

But, life.

So here's one card.  I prepped a bunch of cards to finish over this week and it didn't happen.  Let's see what I can get done in three hours.

Elf is one of my favorite Christmas movies.  When I saw the Paper House had Elf paper and stickers, well I bought an embarrassing amount of them!

STAMPtember - Day Twenty-Six - Can't. Stop. Coffee.

I'm all about the anniversaries lately, I swear.  Fifteen years ago today, the final season of Gilmore Girls premiered.  I remember being so apprehensive about it because Amy was gone as showrunner (it didn't fare Dawson's Creek very well!) and season six hadn't ended well, and I was concerned about where all the turmoil with the WB/UPN/CW was going to affect things.  All in all, season seven wound up being pretty good, if you think about all the obstacles.  Anyways, enough reminiscing.  Here's my card.  I loooooove Unity Stamps because they have so many images that I consider Lorelais!

STAMPtember - Day Twenty-Two - Take Two - Eighteen Years....

Eighteen years, eighteen years, she got one of your kids, got you for eighteen years....Sorry.  You know me and musical tangents.  NON VM OR TV FANS just scroll down to my card, this is gonna take awhile :D  Where was I?  Oh, musical tangents.  And music is so intrinsically linked with Veronica Mars for me.  My beloved (and forever ruined) show debuted eighteen years ago today, and I still remember that day very well.  I was in the process of switching jobs so I was working two jobs to fulfill my two weeks at the old job while starting my new one and most days I opened one store, closed another.  I was exhausted and behind on ALL my shows but somehow that day I only worked a day shift.  I wanted to take a little nap before the show premiered and I remember my mom waking me and asking if I just wanted to sleep.  The commercials for VM and the obviously comparison to Buffy (also beloved, for the first three years only) forced me to get up and I am so glad I did.  I loved VM instantly.  And though I initially hated Logan (I think everyone did) within a few episodes I'd grown to love him and LoVe will ALWAYS be one of my most favorite TV ships.

Okay TV rant over!  Here's my card!

STAMPtember - Day Twenty - This Too Shell Pass

I love love love love love anything with seashells or mermaids or water or sand or seagulls, they're one of my favorite kinds of cards to make.  I really needed to make something happy and distracting so I made this.  I'm worried that it WON'T pass, but I have to believe that it WILL so I can get to tomorrow and the next day and the next without screaming myself hoarse and throwing things out the window. (side note: you know how on TV someone always throws clothing out of the a second-story window? I've always lived in a ranch but I've always wanted to do that!)
