Christmas is coming!

here are a few blogs that are inspiring me during the holiday season.


Tim Holtz - 12 TAGS of Christmas
for 12 days, he is making a tag each day and posting the steps in detailed photos. they are very cool. the kids and i check this out while we eat our lunch these days.


Crop Suey
this is a local scrap club and store. she happens to be a friend of my cousin. {hugs to you Nicki!!} Bree is very fun to watch her demo stuff.


Nadine at Delight Designs
she used to work at my LSS when i first started scrapbooking. not sure how well she remembers me. i ran into her last year and she remembered Aidan as a baby (yes, of course i had to re-introduce myself...one of those things i do if i remember a face). when he was a few months old, i had this awesome "elf" hat that he wore with matching mittens. she loved that set! she also giggled with delight when i brought him in. she is super talented and is making some fantastic stuff...and sharing her techinques.


The Girlfriends Club - Candy Cane Fridays
Leah, Johanna and Donna. the kids LOVE these videos. i always wish i was right there scrapping with them...they always have so much fun!


we have never had a video camera. i'm not sure the kids would know how to react to one. Aidan told me a few weeks ago that he wanted to teach others how to "craft" when he was grown up. with videos. hilarious!! so, now when we do crafts together, we pretend we are making a video. fun times!!
