Winner

Thanks to everyone who stopped by and left a comment for the PC Gourmet book. Our winner is Jen Martakis! Congrats, Jen!!! Email me your address and I will have the book sent out to you ASAP.

Well, today is Tuesday, and you know that means MMM day. Here is a little sneak of the page I did for today.

You can see the rest of it a the MMM Blog

I was in Michael's last night looking for supplies for Lisa Pace's online class. (You can see more about it here.)That place is in full swing for Christmas!! Every aisle is packed with holiday decorations and supplies. I've definitely gotten into the spirit early this year.
Here is a project I did for Emma's this week. We had to do a workshop using Glassine Bags. I decided to incorporate mine into a card and to make a matching treat bag. Note the candy cane flavored kisses! They are sinful.




I used lots of SEI Alpine embellishments on here. Love that line. The paper is the new Making Memories Paperie line in green. It's flocked and gorgeous in person.
I leave you with one more thought today. Go out and VOTE! We are so lucky to live in a country where we have this priviledge. I've voted in every election since I turned 18. I know it sounds goofy, but I'm still so in awe every time I step into the voting booth. My parents were both into politics and while their conservative views certainly didn't rub off on me (pheeeew), their unyielding belief that we all have a voice and should use it did. I hope to pass this along to Ryan. He already likes going into the booth and pressing the buttons for me.
Thanks for stopping by!!!

Love the LO you did for the MMM blog - the design is unique and I love to see how you took a digital LO and made it into paper. :)

Anabelle, this JOY project is stunning! I agree with you when it comes to voting. I was able to vote in a presidential election months after turning 18 and was SO EXCITED!! Years later I still love to cast my ballot.
