Swaps and a freebie for swaps!

Image
I'm currently working on a scrap challenge in my Facebook group, the goal is to use up scraps and get a bunch of cards made for 'Cards for Troops'.  I'm also working on new swaps for some of my other card making groups.  I thought I'd share this "swap card " with you, if you participate in swaps you'll know that you need to make sure who ever receives your card knows who it is coming from and for which swap! I give you the single and the multi sheet: I'm still enjoying the Holidays I hope you are too! Ginny M

Once in a life time and freebies

"Once in a life time you meet someone who changes everything"                This is a quote on a stamp I purchased while I was at my crafty retreat in November.              I used the stamp to make this ATC for a swap group I am in  for a January ATC swap "Love" When I saw the stamp I knew I just had to have it and at a price tag of $4.00 I could have it!    I think there are many people and events in our lives that happen and that change everything.  But I do think there is that one special person that can happen and that can change everything.  The first "person" in my life to change everything was Jesus. One summer night when I was twenty I was sitting on my front steps and thinking about the crazy "religious" family that also happend to be my landlords, that also more or less adopted me into their hearts and loved me in a way I had never known.  I was thinking what if they were right and I was wrong, What if there really was a plan and purp

Merry Christmas!

Basicly because

Like everyone else I'm going in a lot of directions right now and to be honest while I am hoping to get through a certain level of middle aged woman brain fog, I am really having a good time! I don't have a tree up yet, the total sum of my household christmas decorations is pine around my soup tureen on the center of my dining room table and  a stash of beautiful Christmas cards  on the buffet that I need to hang up! I'm probably not going to go crazy with a tree - I didn't get  the living room painted last week - So most likely I will pop up the 4 footer on top of a chest in the living room. and that will be about it.  I'm not a humbug about Christmas, it is just that I live celebrating the Saviour all year long, the actual holiday of christmas is so far removed from what I celebrate I have a hard time getting caught up in it for one day a year according to the marketing industry.  But we will have a wonderful holiday, filled with family, friends and good food.  Ri
