Good Morning! Happy Thanksgiving to my family and friends in the United States. Yesterday, my husband picked up our mail  and in it was my goodie package from Kraftin Kimmies! It was nice to oogle at after a long day of doctors appointments.  I did a little happy dance :)

It is Thursday and we have another challenge over at 4 Crafty Chicks.  Our wonderful hostess this week is Miss Lori.   She has an excellent challenge for us.  For Challenge #170 we would like to see some Christmas creations! O la, la the amazing creations and numbers we had last week were rockin...thanks for making my job so hard :)

My creation this week is made by my mom Bonnie! She is an extremely crafty gal.  I am still unable to craft and had 5 cards left to make for my husbands work.  My mom surprised me by helping me out! She made me 5 individual cards just like I do.  Today, I am sharing one of her creations since I have not been able to make any cards yet.  Thank you mom for your wonderful work....you really do need your own blog.  I believe she said that she found the idea for this creation from someone named Dee, although she has changed things up to make it her own.  Thanks Dee for inspiring my mom. Thank you mom for helping me and inspiring me always :)
 
 
Please share some Love with my mom as she made an awesome Christmas card.  I hope to be back crafting really soon.
 
I would like to enter her card into Make It Monday - #168 -Anything Goes
 
We would love to see you at 4 Crafty Chicks this week.  It is a blast to see what you make and share some love.  The amazing creations always have me drooling.
 
Thank you for stopping in and a smile is coming your way!

A Cute Snowman Couple

Good Morning! It has been just a tad cold here in central Alberta.  It already looks a lot like a winter wonderland with all the snow we have gotten. It is hard to believe that on Friday it has been 1 month since our accident.  Where is the month of November going?

This week over at 4 Crafty Chicks our challenge is provided by me. For challenge #169 - it is Anything Goes!

My card was made with a Stamp I won from one Crazy Stamper.  I will find exactly what I used on my card but it is up in the craftroom that I haven't been in for a month, please bare with me. I will post it in here when my family finds where I put it...LOL. I do know I used Dazzling diamonds for sure. One more Christmas card for my husbands work.



I would like to enter into this into One crazy Stamper 

Please come on over and share your amazing work with us at 4 Crafty Chicks. I would love to come and visit your blog. 

Have an amazing day and enjoy some crafting for me, can't wait to be back at it!

Anything But A Card!

Good Morning! Before I get to the challenge this week at 4 Crafty Chicks, I must thank my very wonderful friends and fellow DT's for their love and support the last few weeks.  I really appreciate all of the hard work they are doing for me in front of the scenes and behind the scenes.  It humbles me and thank you! Love ya :)

To my followers and fellow DT's.  I have not been on my blog lately because on October 22, two of my children and I were in a horrific vehicle accident.  One car crossed the center line hit another one and then me at highway speeds.  My son Robin saved his sister and my life.  Our van was on fire and I was stuck and our daughter was hurt and couldn't get out. He got me out and got me to the highway and also helped his sister.  People gave him cell phones so he was looking after us, talking to police, fire fighters and EMT's as well as strangers coming onto the scene.  He is our hero. Five people survived and one passed away.  I have tons of healing to do and right now I am not able to craft but am working hard to get back to a normal life and crafting with my friends.  We are grateful to be here as this could have been catastrophic.  Our family, friends, two communities and strangers that have supported us has been over whelming but is so appreciated beyond words. We are truly grateful and will pay it forward.

Onto our 4 Crafty Chicks challenge! our very crafty hostess is Leanne and does she have a challenge for us.  We are on Challenge #167 and Leanne wants us to create ANYTHING BUT A CARD!

I would like to enter my creations into Make It Monday - Anything Goes
 
We would love to see what you create so come on over to 4 Crafty Chicks.  Have an amazing day and thank you for stopping by.
 
P.S.  I am grateful for you all.
