Happy Christmas Eve Everyone!
So who else is scrambling to get everything done besides me? Last minute shopping or last minute crafting and cooking? Well I hope that it's a merry time doing all of those things. I'm going to finish posting and then finish up some last minute crafts for some friends. I'm listening to the Hawaiian radio station (Hawaiian 105) right now and they are playing Christmas music so I'm definitely in the mood and motivated.
Here are some cards I made using some of the older C.C. Designs Pixies & Sugarplum images and some
AmyR sentiments. I didn't get to use any of the images last year, so this year I wanted to make sure they got onto some cards. I was picturing an easy kine wreath to go along with the images, and a CAS layout. For the wreaths I used two Spellbinders (scalloped circle and inverted scallop circle). It actually came out just as I envisioned and it was super easy to do. For some I used kraft & white cs, which I embossed. I also made some with dp. Dotted the wreaths with either white or cream colored pearl pen around as ornaments interspersed with some actual half pearls to make it more festive. Some are colored to match the card. Lastly I added either twine or bakers twine to the top. I am definitely thinking of doing this again next year.

Well that's all for me right now. I need to finish up some last minute crafts for tonight and tomorrow. Yep, the procrastinator again.. lol! So for those of you preparing dinner or just starting breakfast enjoy the next few days and cherish the time spent with your loved ones.
