This week's Paper Craft Crew #66 was perfect for getting me to bring out the Perfectly You Hostess set again - I've been wanting to color those little Christmas ornaments! I kept the rest of the card fairly simple - I have so many competing patterns, I didn't want to give anyone a headache, lol... Quick and fun, though, I think this may make one of my board cards!
Can't wait to see what YOU bring to the Crew this week! Make sure to join us!

Pumpkin Notes

OK, I won't lie - this month's Paper Pumpkin kit - Memo Medley - is a stumper! I'm thrilled with our Pumpkin Challenge #1113 this month - Gifts! How cool is that?! What a perfect choice for this kit - and so timely with the "gifting" time of year so soon upon us, lol...
So this first one from me is one I've been plotting in my head ever since my kit arrived. I've been needing something for my teenage daughter's door, as a little clearinghouse for messages, reminders, bribes, etc - you get the idea! And thus, my little note-holder board is born! I LOVE the woodgrain extra-heavy tag board that came in this month's kit - it can really stand up to some use! I had to use my Big Bite to punch the holes for some of the old retired hardware I dug out for finishing touches, but still, fairly quick, simply put together with hot glue - and in use already! Yay!

It's that time of year again! I'll be setting up a "Handmade by Heather" booth at Mountainview Presbyterian's 23rd Annual Holiday Gift & Mission Marketplace - I hope to see you there! Hope I'm right in front of the cinnamon rolls again, lol!

What a striking layout at Clean & Simple #264! As soon as I saw it, I knew I wanted to play with that scalloped edge on the floating panel - my fussy cutters were calling out to me! This turned out to be a quick-but-elegant birthday card for Mom's birthday - though it doesn't go with the Chinese restaurant she asked to go to, lol... Got some marker play, too, all my fave techniques in one card!

It's so fun to play with sketch challenges after a new shipment of stampin' stuff has arrived! So many new possibilities, ahhh! So when I saw this week's Nacho Average Challenge #61, I almost had too much to choose from! I dithered all morning!
In the end, I have to be honest, it was plotting out possible blog post titles that chose for me! Here in Arizona, you know we don't leave out cookies for Santa, right? Naturally not!

OK, I was feeling purple-and-green starved on this cloudy day, so I went trolling through my retired papers box for some bright and cheery combos to use on this week's Retro Sketch #87. I miss this DSP - and Lucky Limeade even more! Sigh, it's worse than when I had to get over Kiwi Kiss, sob. I'm NOT a hoarder - I'm NOT! I know right where every remaining speck is! Giggle...
Bombs Away Birthday, Best of Birthdays & Create A Cupcake (inside sentiment) stamp sets; Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry & Lucky Limeade (retired) CS and inks; Floral District DSP (retired); Delicate Designs embossing folder; Brights Candy Dots.

This month's "Best of..." set is now available - "Best of Snow!" They really brought back some cuties this month - have they been saving the best for last?? Only one more left!
Four images total, including one brand new one, that coordinates with our wonderful Label Bracket punch! $14.95 for the set!
