3-in-1


Here it is Dec. 4 and we're getting snow.  After such a wet summer, our fall has been wonderful.  And just a light snowfall on Dec. 1 which disappeared by the end of the day, was much nicer than last year.  Snow from the start of Nov.  The kids were so happy today when they got up and saw the snow.  Me on the other hand am not a winter person, I much prefer the warmth.  But I'm stuck with it. 
It's been a nice quiet morning, i haven't had a day at home by myself for a while.  So far I've drank tea, read the paper and weekly flyers, drank tea.  I plan do some scrapbooking this afternoon.  I'm trying to put all the kids school stuff into a scrapbook.  Using their actual art pieces were I can.  Most are too big so I've taken pictures of them, before they hit the trash can.  (I just don't have room to keep everything.)
Onto card stuff.  I've finally finished a card this week.  The sketch I used for it was Card Patterns-Sketch 43.  This was last weeks sketch I didn't get it done on time, but I liked it and used it anyway.  Card covers 365 Cards-Day 275-Tis the Season.  You were to make a red and green sominant color card, of any theme.  I know this time of year red and green should be for Christmas but I've done so many Christmas cards I'm sick of them.  Second Challenge-Cupcake Caft Challenges-Challenge 68-Red and Green.  Third-Little Red Wagon-Challenge 5-Heavy Metal.  You were to use metal on your project.  I found a charm saying 'be kind' that I had picked up a while back for just such emergencies.  Hope you enjoy. 
Happy crafing ;o)
