Farm Fresh Friday-Color Challenge #1

As you all know I am in total love with The Greeting Farm and all of their images. I try to do their challenges when I get the chance, well this week I had some extra time to work on it.

The color challenge was to use the following colors:


Here is my card. I used the signature anya set and colored her in with my copics. The paper is from Bo Bunny and is called Alissa (very pretty in person). The flowers and ribbon is from my stash.

Black Friday

So were you crazy enough to go out into the crowds??? We did go out but not to any of the big stores. Surprisingly, Jo-Ann's wasn't that busy and I was able to get out with no problems...sure do wish I needed a Cricut LOL :) I did get some shopping done but on the computer, Amazon was having some good deals on movies and Brian was able to get a bunch for $10 and we did get a couple gifts for Abby.

Anyhoo, I was able to get some crafting done today. I have been wanting to try and make one of those nugget tins so I sat down and worked on it. You would think these things would be pretty easy but I hit a creative block when I put the stupid thing in front of me. UGH!!!

So this is what I came up with, luckily it's not going any where and Abby will be able to eat the candy tomorrow LOL
Supplies:
Paper (Polar Expressions)
Vintage Christmas stickles
Sentiment (The Greeting Farm)
Snowflake punch
Ribbon (CTMH)

Happy Thanksgiving

Just wanted to post a quick note to say Happy Thanksgiving to all who stop by today. I hope you all are spending some much needed time with family and friends.

I am staying home with Brian, Abby and my MIL. The meal is almost finished cooking and then I'm hoping to get some crafting done.

So again HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
