Hi Everyone,

I had been in MI for over a week, helping my mom and the family out with our moms recovery after her hospital stay. I am glad to report she is on the mend and was eating well when I left.
When I got home and went to start up my computer, nothing happened.  I have the linky for you, but that is it for now. I will post the team's work and the guest designers project, please come back and check it out.


I was getting ready to go to bed and hit the on button for the computer and it started-- glad that happened I was able to make this post and now I will do a back up--. Now to report, I  have not done  a backup and computer is running smooth. I still need to do a backup.




this challenge will run until january 13th 11:59pm PST

Gerda

My name is Gerda and live in the Netherlands, a city called Maastricht. I'am married with a wunderful guy for almost 29 years. Together we have one daughter. I'm crafting now for many years. A few years ago I bought my first Cricut Expression and started to explore. It's wunderful to craft with it. There are so many possibilities and combinations with all the cartridges. Last year I have bought my first Silhouette Cameo and explore this one. Almost all my crafting projects are based on the Cricut and/or the Silhouette. Some projects I make together with my daughter for her school.

In 2011 I started my crafting blog "CardsCreations" to share my creations with other crafting people. I'am not a computer freak so my hubby assists me with my blog and the photo's. He love's my hobby. My blog is in "Dutch" but have a translator in my sidebar.

Hi Everyone,

I know this went on for a long time, I think blogger is changing things right now. I would like to do a 1300 follower giveaway, but I am going to see what is happening with blogger first. I have already had quite a few blog followers disappear. Blogger is going to make it proprietary for you to have a google account to connect to friends -- we will just wait and see what happens - This will take effect January 11-- they announced it four years ago so we should have been prepared!!!  are we??

Here is a link with the info

Hope got a new outfit for Christmas if she is not traveling all over the country next year maybe she can really be the Fashionista she was meant to be. It looks like she modeled for the packaging, Doesn't that elf look just like her?

Just before our gift exchange/brunch, Hope got a nice seat in the middle where it will be warm. I think she is hungry to . All the  food looked so good YUM!!!

Hope is donning her new jacket here, she is becoming quite the fashionista. Can you notice anything else new with Hope? Yes!! She is free I finally unbound her hands. She is so happy.

Hope has a new outfit this year -- super cute tee -- Don't you think??

Hi Everyone,

I am really behind on picking winners, so this week I will try to get caught up before the new Year begins. If you see a winner everyday, don't be surprised.
I will post a winner today from the 3rd Annual elf Antics challenge. Hope will be in charge of that. She flew to Michigan with me to meet my mom and the rest of the family, she was pre- checked so she was able to keep her jacket and shoes on.
My grand niece Sarina was thrilled to hold Hope, because she can not touch her elf or it will lose its magical powers.

Hi Everyone can you believe next week will be 2016???
eeks!!!  where did this year go? I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed it very much.  Ours was rather quiet, I got home from MI on the 23rd and my hubs was sick and still is. I hope he gets better soon we have another Christmas to go to.

Here is the photo inspiration

and here is my take on it.

I used the Christmas red ribbon from the Traditional Christmas bundle.

The paper and tags are from PTI, I also used the tag die and paper from the same collection.

Have a blessed day, Diana

MERRY CHRISTMAS

MERRY CHRISTMAS,
May you feel the peace joy and love the season brings and may it continue in your life through 2016
Many blessings, Diana
