A lot of catching up to do. . .

Ok, I am way way behind with my bloggin' again!! :o) First, I will write about my 30 of gratefulness later today. However, I wanted to post a few ideas I have worked on for cards, Christmas gifts, and announce the winners of the BLOG CANDY!! There were only 3 entries, so I made the decision to declare all 3 ladies winners! So, the Winners are:

Jackie at Our Moments, Our Memories

Amanda


FosterMom

Here is one of the small gifts I made for some of the gals at work. I bought the candle at the dollar section of Target, used my CM circle cutter to cut out the circle and the stamp is from Stampin'UP. I liked these because they are really simple.



Here is a picture of some goodies I received from Eugenia. I was so happy to have them!! She gave them to me as a "thank you" for helping out her mom. :o)

I love surprises!!

















I had to also post a picture of a recent snow we had in NC! We rarely get snow, and to have snow before Thanksgiving was a major shock! :o) I was so excited!! Even though it did not last long and I spent most of the morning driving to work, I had to take a few photos. Honestly, they are not the best ones I have taken, but it was the first snow for me while in my new house! :o) Makes it special.
