Wrapping away!

The Christmas countdown has begun...

This week has been spent
cleaning, cleaning and more cleaning
and some wrapping!

Check out these 2 cute gifts
for the little relatives in
our lives:

How about a nice game of hide and seek with
a sock monkey?!? I love games that involve more
than one player, and physical activity!

AND for the little boys:

Something nice and gross!
The players reach into the plush
head and try to pull out the "goodies"!

Happy wrapping!

Sneak Peek!

I always start my craft show season in September and it's almost here! It is too hot (96) still to think of falling temps and leaves, let alone snow but  the craft show season beckons...Here is a little peek into my gingerbread men. I never make just one of anything. Don't they look so cute all scattered on my table? More finished pics later!

I used a new EK punch, (Jo-Ann's) then added rosy cheeks with a stencil brush and deep red craft paint. Then I painted "frosting" with white dimensional paint. The dimensional paint comes with a fine tip on the end, perfect for drawing squiggly lines. Next will come eyes and vintage buttons. Cookies anyone??
