Frames are my new best friend!!

Here is a set of four frames I bought for dirt cheap to make into Christmas presents. This set is for my mom! Please let me know what you think...as I am uncertain of one of them, only because they use a different color scheme. I am thinking the one will go to the other set I need to make, but will be eager to hear what y'all think!!

Another Present

Here is the last present for my secret holiday friend at work. Tomorrow we reveal who we are!! She will get this, an empty scrapbook, and a coupon to craft with me (she wants to start being "crafty")and if I can bribe her the ever so talened Jennifer aka jkschumaker on SCS and my SU Demo, and my coworker and my stampin friend. I really hope Katie likes it!!

I still have so much to do to be ready for Christmas...is anyone else feeling overwhelmed???

Don't you hate it when...

you've got the scrapbooking mojo going strong and then you run out of adhesive? Grrr.

So, tomorrow I will be going to the store for some adhesive and...umm, there was something else I needed...really, making lists is such a good idea...ya just need to right it down when you think of it. Like right now I am thinking I need to go load my old vacuum cleaner in my car that I am donating for one of our families at work. Welcome to Keri's random thoughts...off to put a vacuum in my car!

Presents Galore

I started working on a scrapbook for my niece for Christmas...she is a horse lover, so I scrapped photos of her riding and doing her horse thing...the pics I took of the pages aren't too hot, as I had already put a couple of the pages in their page protectors.


























The next item I worked on was a cute lil frame for my Secret Holiday Friend at work. Hope she likes it!!

New Look

So, do you like it? I thought it was time for a lil change so here it is. I had big plans to be crafty yesterday, but Friday night on the way home I got struck by the sickies. I was achy, sore throat, fever, and just generally feeling yucky. My fever was even higher yesterday and I was just miserable. I spent the day sleeping and lying around. I feel better today, no fever, just a lil achy and the lingering sore throat, but I think it must have been a 24 hour bug, thank goodness!! Thanks for "listening" to me whine about yet another of my illnesses. I am going to treat myself to a Starbucks and then see what kind of crafting I can get done...my pics came in that I need for the mini-scrapbooks I am making for Christmas presents so that sounds like a good place to start. I will post something soon I hope!!

Big on Christmas

I am loving this stamp set from Stampin' Up!!! Here are the cards I have made today...only 2, one from this weekend. I got some cleaning done today, took a nap and relaxed. Didn't get as much done as I wanted to, but that's OK!!
