Fashionista I am not!
True I have a whole bunch of shoes from boots to super high heels but the truth is I spend almost everyday in slippers.
What can I say
So when I found the
Runway Inspired
Challenge
I knew this was my time to let out that inner fashionista hibernating in me!

Here's my card and the inspiration

Christmas count down - Day 22, 25

Wow what a Christmas!

My kiddos were good this year and got everything they wanted. I got a nice relaxing day with my family. No where to go and nothing to stress about...it was the best. Just wanted to end my first ever "Christmas count down" with a little gift. Here's a look at our family gift baskets. Made about ten of these and handed them out to friends and family. I used different pattern paper for all the baskets so to see a different look check out my flickr page to the right>>>
This example used Echo Parks " FA-LA-LA-LA-LA" paper from their Holly Jolly collection.The mini paper tree decoration
Tea for two
(Green tea & Jazmin tea)What's Christmas without hot chocolate?
Here's some in a pretty package And some candle light

Christmas count down - Day 23

So how many Christmas stamps did you buy this year?

I'm always hesatent to buy a huge bunch of seasonal stamps because I know there will be more wonderful stamps to come out next year so this year I picked up just one set. And boy did I use it on many projects this holiday season...
Here is a HeroArts "Magic of Christmas" parade
For a gift set...

For gift wraps...
And of course for cards...

Christmas count down - Day 20, 21, 22

Okay sorry to jam up the blog post today but I've been finishing up my Christmas shopping.

Four kids & one mom + the mall = craziness
But I finally finished and now on to my next mission...
Gift wrapping!

December 21st found me Christmas shopping where there were still deals to be made. Check it out.

On my Day two at the mall I scored these..."Betsey Johnson" house slippers at Macy's
They are super comfy and half priced!
also this
Hero Arts stamps at half off.
My local stamp shop is getting ready for all the new products coming out so they are getting rid of some excess. Check yours out.

It's a different kine of score...
I saw these super cute slippers at gap and totally almost got them for the little girls in my family but then I checked the priced and couldn't justify paying $30 soooo...

I found these plain black ones at target for $11 and added these ribbon flowers from Jolee. The centers are K&Company. I think they look fab!!!

What are you gifting this Christmas?
Money is a little tight this year but that doesn't mean no gifts are a lack of fabulous-ness.
It only means handmade fabulous-ness!!!
So guess what it is...

It's a handmade card set trio
Now who wouldn't want that...

And what's a card set without envelopes?
I don't know so I included matching homemade enves...

Christmas count down - Day 15

Did you send out your holiday cards yet?

If your ask me the answer is no BUT I did finish them last night.
so yeah me!!!Had to make these fast so I came up with this simple design. The hardest part...making all those mini medallions but if your a regular here you know how I'm obsessed with these!
Wanted to go bright this year and use my stash (double points for that) So I used my k&Company "Berry sweet" paper pack and the super cute stickers is from Jolee's boutique.

Now to get these in the mail!!!

For us it's waking up before the sun, and spending the morning at beach watching the sunrise.
So today I'm sharing a Layout about how it all got started.This is truly a page built by Imaginisce. All the pattern paper, paper accent and ribbon is from them and put together for the
