Craft Junkie Too- DT Project

Hi Everyone,

Are you all ready for Christmas? I am getting there, still have to wrap all the presents and get some last minute gifts, and go to the grocery store. It just seems like Christmas came so fast this year.
This is the last week for the Winter design team for CJ Too. I had such a great time working with Tracy to bring you some great Fall and Winter projects. I just want to thank her for the great opportunity she shared with me.

For this week's challenge I finished up the gifts for our friends and neighbors and thought I would share this easy cookie recipe that is oh so yummy with you. Is is very simple to make.

Recipe:
Ritz crackers
Milk chocolate chips
Peanut butter

1st you spread peanut butter on top of all the Ritz crackers.

Then you melt the milk chocolate and dip the crackers in the chocolate. This can get messy.....

Then I put them in little treat bags and made tags to go on them. These cookies are so good!

CJToo DT Challenge Christmas Organization & Blog Hop Gypsy cut file

Hi all,

This week Craft Junkie Too's design team was challenged to come up with a Christmas organization project. I must say though I am not organized at all this year. Normally by this time of month I have all my Christmas shopping done and my house is already decorated. Not this year, I am so far behind and I really don't have a reason for it. We just now got our Christmas tree tonight, and we didn't even decorate it. Crazy huh???
Well for this project I made a holiday planner for 2011, so maybe next year I will be a little ahead of the game.

I saw this project on a couple of different blogs and thought it was awesome, so I tried it. The cuts are from Winter Frolic and lettering from Gypsy Wanderings. I found the inside pages at http://www.christmas.organize.org/

CJ TOO DT Challenge-- THANKFUL

Hi- This week Tracy over at Craft Junkie Too challenged us to make a project showcasing what we are thankful for, it could have been anything from home decor, scrapbook layout or anything you could imagine. I went to the Scrapbook Expo last October in Sacramento and I found this cute little booth called Quick Quotes. They had beautiful kits for every occasion. I foam und this one called "Family", so I finally sat down last weekend and put the kit together. We just had family pictures taken in the park so I thought this would be perfect to finish the kit with. And of course it truely represents what I am thankful most in my life...My family. I am so thankful that God blessed me with a wonderful husband and two healthy beautiful children. I could not be more thankful for anything else in the world except that. My family means everything to me and they are the most important part of my life. So I think this wall hanging truely fits this challenge for me.

Here is a picture of the kit

I hope you enjoy.

CJ TOO Design Team Challenge- Fall up in the air

Good morning,

I wanted to share with you the Up in the Air project I made for CJ Too Design Team Challenge. I am so excited about how this one turned out. I know Halloween is over now, but I made this without thinking that it wouldn't be posted until today. So here is my last Halloween project of the year! LOL!! I promise no more....

All cuts are from Happy Hauntings.
The picture frame and head are cut at 6.5 inches
BOO- is cut at 3.5 inches

I covered the BOO with Martha Stewart Green glitter and painted it on with a paint brush. I also covered the skeleton heads with liquid glass for the shiney look. I also used Martha Stewart Orange glitter glue for the points on the frame.

I found these awesome jewels at the Scrapbook Expo last year. I do not recall the name of them, but each pack of jewels was only $0.99. Awesome!!

The flowers are Prima Halloween collection, black card stock and the paper is from a paper stack from Michael's. I do not remember the name of it.

Thanks everyone for looking. Have a great week! I am so excited because I am going the the Scrapbook Expo in Sacramento this weekend! WOOT! WOOT!
