Here are the rules:

• Choose 5 up and coming blogs of fewer than 200 followers to award the Liebster to.
• Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award by linking back to them. If you are not a follower of theirs, that might be a nice way to show appreciation for the award.;)

Don't Forget A Holiday Thank You

Good Morning Everyone! The holidays came and went in a hurry didn't they. My girls have today off and will return to school tomorrow. I love when they have breaks and we can all just slow down the pace a little. Tomorrow will definitely be back to business as usual. However, there is one order of business that couldn't be dismissed and that was the Christmas thank yous. It is always fun to see what designs they decide upon. This year was no different. Each girl chose what they wanted their card to be and I am happy to say they are done and in the mail.

I used a homemade wobble from a gift I won at Melody Lane Designs. It works great and so easy to make.

Exploring Cricut Challenge #7 - Winter Wonderland

Hi Everyone! This is my first post as one of the new design team members at Exploring Cricut and hope you join in the fun. The challenge is Winter Wonderland. This could be a card, layout, or paper craft creating a winter scene or activity.  I chose snow skiing as my family loves this sport. We haven't gotten any snow here where I live and while I think it is beautiful, I also am glad when the roads are passable:)

I seem to keep grabbing for Winter Frolic when doing projects lately. It is so fun and has so many great cuts.

Recipe:

Snow bunny - Winter Frolic 3.55"

Trees - Winter Frolic 3.22"

Papers - Scraps
