I made the matching place cards for Thanksgiving. They matched the candle ring things I had made earlier. They're not fancy, but they did the job:
And, it snowed on Friday:
It all melted by mid afternoon.
Saturday we celebrated Matt's birthday with his dad and stepmom. We had Chinese food, and I ate spicy tuna sushi, totally forgetting that I'm not supposed to eat raw or undercooked meats while on chemo... (oops). I meant to only eat the cali rolls, but OMGosh that was good spicy tuna!
I made these babies last night... Christmas ATC's Tim Holtz style:
I first used clear embossing powder on the white swirls. Then I sprayed some blue and a bit of orange mist onto wax paper and then smeared the card into it. Then I stamped the deer and put black embossing powder on him. Then I stamped the ornaments onto the deer antlers and used silver embossing powder on those. The stamps are all Basic Grey from a few years back. It was a messy project, but fun to do.
I got some great mail goodies last week that I'll share with you later. Haven't had a chance to take pictures yet.
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.... and if you're not from the US, hope you had a great weekend. :)
