Christmas Holy Card

I have been collecting Vintage Holy Cards for several years and I find that I have a hard time doing or parting with them.  I was hoping that this year I would have the time to make something with them or at least get them scanned into my computer but of course life got in the way again.  I have several Christmas ones so I will post them for you to see.  


In regards to Christmas decorating,  I hope to get up and going this week - finally - this is my favorite holiday and I just could not get going early enough and I've gotten grumpy about it.  I have to keep reminding myself that it's not just about decking your house but also a time to prepare yourself to receive Him and what blessings He brings.  

Take care everyone and don't burn out on Christmas -  remember, "He's the reason for the Season".

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

First, I would like to wish each and everyone of you a Blessed Thanksgiving Day.  I hope you are blessed abundantly in the company of family and friends.  


I wanted to share my very first paper wreath...I am too happy with it even though It took a while to get all those cones done.  I got the clip art from the Graphics Fairy, it's a fabulous site with oodles of free downloadable clip art.  Check it out.


I chose the work family and the crown because family is extremely important in our lives.  

 I hope the pictures are not out of focus.  I didn't have my glasses on.  Take care everyone.

Remember these?

Well I finally got to finish this cloth pumpkins.  I scoured the net for patterns but finally decided to just trust my own intuition and go with it.  I check out a few tutorials and went for it.  I am glad I did because I usually change things anyway, even if I have a pattern - something about being creative I guess.  Anyway here is what I came up with.

Before:

This is what the large ones looked like - $2 soft pillows.

After

Doesn't this look like an apple?

Bye friends...
