Christmas 2014

Just a quick post to show you our Christmas cards this year!  We rented a moving truck today to move boxes and small pieces of furniture.  Our family helped us move today- we could not have done it without them!  We have hired movers for the big "stuff" to move the rest on Friday.  What a day!  I am sore from head to toe!  I almost, almost bought store bought Christmas cards this year.  Trying to pack boxes and make this move takes soooo much of my time.  But I was able to make the above cards- even though my Craft room is disassembled!  This week I will finish packing it all up to move.

 

I used Pan Pastels to make the moon glow.  I love the trees die cuts that add dimension to the card.

As soon as I can get my Craft room up and running in our new home- I will post pictures.  Not sure when that will be- so in case I don't get a chance before Christmas- Merry Christmas to all!

Empty Craft Room

I finally figured out why I couldn't upload pictures!  My cord was not plugged in!  We had been "hacked" by unknowns who demanded moola to release our files!  I have lost 2 years worth of pictures but it just means making some new memories.  My husband was able to get our computer back and for now it is up and working!  Yipee!   If that excitement was not enough- we found the home of our dreams and bought it!  But, of course, that means moving from the condo.  It also means I will have a Craft room above ground!  These are pictures of my Craft room after boxing everything up!  I won't tell you how many boxes I used.  Yikes, I have a lot of stuff!!

 

All my dies are off the wall!  I left enough stuff to make my Christmas cards.  I will show pictures soon!  Look how empty it looks!

 

 

All my wooden stamps have been boxed up too!  Tom made this shelf just for those stamps! I think one day they will be considered vintage since now we tend to use clear self sticking stamps.

 

 

I still have to box my paper!  My office will be making our Christmas cards again this year to send to other offices! I will show you pictures after next week of those cards too! This is a busy month for us!  As if Christmas time wasn't busy enough- moving to a new home just adds to the excitement!  I can't wait.  I will post pictures of my NEW Craft room once it is set up!
