Merry Christmas!

 Merry Christmas! 

Here's another teacher candy bucket for your 'viewing pleasure'! LOL!  I also made the teachers some necklaces, too, but failed to take a picture of those! GEEZ!  I attribute that to my pneumonia and lack of brain juice!

I used different My Mind's Eye papers for this one, but still has the same concept to it.  Fun ribbon by Prairie Bird Boutique, of course!  Patsy's ribbons just rock!!!!!!!!!!  (and so does her customer service, too!) You should try her ribbons, just lovely!  OH and of course, you can always iron it flat, too, but I like the shabby chic look!

I hope you enjoy your Christmas and spend it making many wonderful memories with family and friends!  I am lucky to be spending it with my hubbies extended family, even some from out of state, so that is surely a blessing!  But I will miss out on my side of the family, so that's not so happy, but we plan to make up for that in a month or so!

I want to say thank you so much to my wonderful paper-craft followers, friends and design-team sisters!  I really do sincerely appreciate each and every one of you!  Sharing your comments with me here on my blog is like a breath of fresh air each time and gives me that much needed motivation to keep it going!  Life gets very busy, you know, with four kids and it keeps getting harder and harder to find time to myself to craft.  So, knowing that you are all looking out for me, giving me support, really does help me stay motivated and keep the blog up!  I just hope that all of these illnesses will go by the way-side soon, so that I can post more often, like I used to!!!!!!!!  Anyhoo!!!! 

I hope you have a very blessed Christmas

and an even MORE wonderful 2011!
