Joy to the world

Hello!  I thought I'd take the time to play in Tiddly Inks Challenge #99 -- Make it like Marlena today.  I got this digi Wryn Goes Caroling when it was first released and I colored her up but didn't get a chance to put her onto a card.  And it's a good thing I printed up some of these Xmas Wryns a while ago cause my printer is all messed up now.  So my love/hate relationship with my printer continues.  Yup, in a hate phase right now. 

So here she is finally on a card.  I love these Wryns.  So adorable and fun to color too.  I added the holly die which is from CC Designs and a little gingerbread man button.

A little close up.  I love Christmas but not so much Christmas music.  Maybe I'm just tired of hearing the same stuff?  But I do love these 2 songs.  The first is Willie K's version of O Holy Night.  You can hear it HERE.  I never really get tired of hearing this version.  The second is the Christmas version of Pachelbel's Canon in D.  You can hear it HERE.  I love listening to Pachelbel's Canon in D.  It was at our wedding too all those years ago.  I must drive my husband crazy listening to all the different versions of it on You Tube.  And then I kick myself for not practicing piano as a kid so I could play this.     

Thanks for the comments on my previous post of Miyoko's hair colors!  When I finish them up, I'll post the colors I used for her hair. 

Thanks for reading!

Sweet Christmas card! Just went to your Willie K link - his voice is beautiful. Recently we've been listening to Canon in D almost every night...in various versions (vocal, violin, piano, rock, etc). How funny!

All she's adorable! This is a really super sweet card!I have her but not colored up, maybe next year. So many of my holiday images will have to wait for next year. lol.
I love the Willie K song, and have been enjoying all the Hawaiian Christmas music on Hawaiian 105.
Take care!

Snowman gift card holder

By
Hi!  I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences.  It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts.  I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one.  It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch.  The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card.  I added this fun card that I stamped.  You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks.  I hope I can make more of these little guys.  These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...

nuts and bolts

Hello!  Today I'll be sharing the last amigurumi I made during my crochet frenzy.  I haven't been crocheting much recently except for this one little project I'm kind of procrastinating with.  I really do love this last one because I think it came out really cute. This is a little crocheted robot designed by Bubblegum Belles .  You can find the pattern HERE .  Sometimes I purchase the patterns especially if they are really cute.  But a lot of designers do list their patterns for free too on their blogs so I always check to see if they have a blog or not.  It's also important to read their pattern listing too if you are purchasing to see whether they are for personal use or also for commercial use.  Here is a different view of him.  Happy that he is able to sit on his bottom.  I actually cut out 2 felt hearts using a heart die, blanket stitched them together, and then hot glued the heart to the robot.  I tried stitching one h...
