Thank you Belles 'n Whistles

Hey Friends!  For today, I made a tag that I wanted to put on a goodie bag for a friend of mine. I planned on making her those Chocolate Pretzel Rods and placing them in the Martha Stewart bag with this little tag on the top. I used Pizza Time .. yes yes yes! But I covered up the pizza with sprinkles of little colored beads to make it look like she was baking little donut cookies or something of a dessert straight out of the oven. :)

Also, I wanted to thank ALL of the ladies at Belles 'n Whistles for being such lovely SWEETHEARTS!  I have decided to step down from Belles 'n Whistles to make time for a new crafting adventure.  I've enjoyed my days with you, loved being a part of your family for a year and a half .. you've brought so many smiles to my lips and laughter to my heart!  Thank you thank you thank you for welcoming me into your family, I love you and I do hope we will keep in touch!

With Love,

Elise



Merry Christmas!

Hello Friends!  Wishing you all a very BEAUTIFUL & MERRY Christmas!  May your day be filled with lots of love and laughter!

Thank you all for being so WONDERFUL .. I truly enjoy your friendships!

Just For You

Hello Friends!  Hope you're all doing very well this week.  Here in town is quite chilly ... as I took my son to school one day last week, there was a light snow flurry.  :)  I love it when it snows here by our home, as it doesn't happen too often.

And last night I made some ham and bean soup .. yummmmm .. nice and cozy.

Well, here's an image that I've had for a year now and I've finally inked her up .. lol.  AND I'm using some most loveliest of papers which I had to fight with myself to actually cut .. PION Papers from a very sweet and dear friend of mine!  Thank you so much!

I'd like to enter this into:

Just Magnolia:  Anything Goes with option of Sparkle

Also one more thing before I head out, here's a pic of Max .. he's growing like a weed .. and he's gonna get bigger still.  lol!

Thank you so much for visiting me .. I love it when you do!  I'll see ya again soon!

Hugs,

Elise
