Disneyworld for Thanksgiving

My last post before Christmas said I was going to post photos of my Christmas decorations and I never got around to doing it.  One of my New Year's resolutions is to work on my blog several times a week.  Here we are a couple of weeks into January and I still haven't been doing that.   I will get on track, though.  So, I thought I would post some photos from our Disneyworld trip instead.  I'm going to be posting some new projects this week for sure.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Here's Hannah and I at the Beach Club Resort at Disneyworld standing in front of a gingerbread carousel.  They make gingerbread and chocolate items for display at Disneyworld every year and they have to start in July.  Anyway, they were all just amazing, but especially the carousel.

I'm so behind right now!  I will try to post some photos of my Christmas decorations and some Christmas jewelry I'm planning on making as last minute gifts today.  We'll see how my plan works out.  I will be more likely to get all of this done if I write it down here.  

Disneyworld here we come!!!

We're leaving for Disneyworld tomorrow and I made this clipboard for Hannah.  This year instead of buying an autograph book while we're there, I've cut out a bunch of different tags on the Cricut and will put one on the clipboard to have the characters sign with a marker and then we'll make our own book when we get home.  We'll see how it works out.  I'll post the finished product when I get it made.

This is the front of the clipboard.

This is the back.

Holiday Bling!

Here are some new necklaces I just finished for the holidays and my jewelry party that I'm having on Dec. 9th.  Lots of crystals, lots of sparkle! 

Yard of the Month

I'm so surprised!  I just got yard of the month for November, so I took some photos to post.  I don't have much of a green thumb and don't spend a lot of time in my yard, so that's why I'm very surprised.  Anyway, I had to pull weeds and trim the bushes as soon as they put the sign in the yard! 

Welcome Tray

I made this tray last night to go with my flower arrangements I made this summer.  My flower arrangements had so much red and bright green that I felt like I needed something else red and green to go with them.  I'm not crazy about the way the "welcome to the nest" came out as you can hardly see it, but oh well.  I'm really bad about looking at something I've made and thinking about what I would change if I made it again.  All the die cuts are from the Cricut cartridge Straight from the Nest, various scrapbook paper, matt decoupage glue and Stampin' Up! ribbon.  The tray was just an old green tray that I picked up somewhere along the way and spray painted it black.

Cricut Circle Blog Boo Challenge!

I'm entering my Halloween wreath in the Boo Challenge on the Circle blog.  I had already posted these photos on my blog, but am reposting them now so I can put the link on the Cricut blog.  Anyhow, I made this wreath using the Mini Monsters cartridge.  I tied strips of ribbon to the black wreath and stamped some of the cardstock I used with Stampin' Up! background stamps.
