WOWY 2 posts in 2 days.. how does that happen.. you go 9 days.. then BAM back to back posting! AND it is closer to Xmas then 9 days ago! LOL!! I still have more to share.. BUT gonna keep it to a special birthday wish.. and some cards!!!

Today is 2 of my most FAVORITE peoples birthdays!! My HUBBY!!! and Our Niece!!! She turns 6.. and well my hubby is coming into the WONDERFUL world known as your 40s! (shhh dont tell him I told ya that!!! :) )

Here they are... (I made that eggnog rum cake for them... we celebrated them both , and Kimmie last weekend! at moms house!)


So in honor of Steve and Bug! (Allyson) I have some birthday cards to share!!

First up the Birthday Girls Card I made her-
Next a card for my Grandma- (I had NOOO idea what to make up for hers.. and in the end LOVED it!!!)
This one was for my Cousin Mary-
Finally this was for my neighbor Carol-

Isnt it funny how you do one thing on a card.. and the next follow... I LOVED doing the frame look on them, adding the glittery stars I made.. and then the cute bows.. I couldnt stop!!

SAD NEWS ALERT... I would have added the to you.. under Happy Birthday but GASP.. I LOST it in my creative space.. WAHHH... ok that is all the bad news for today.. will just email PTI and get it replaced.. along with 10 others I need! ;)

I hope you all have a GREAT day... cant WAIT to give Steve his gifts.. I think he is gonna be surprised.. BUT our girl is still asleep.. so we wait a bit longer!!

THANKS for stopping by!

Today I have a cute quick gift.. Snowman Soup! I have always wanted to make these up.. I think they are such a FUN idea.. so today I did! :) You cant tell but IRL it is glittery.. Used my spicas, and added a glitter snowflake I made up! I hope the girls like them...
Inside is a packet of cocoa, Hershey kisses, candy cane.. and those are SNOWMAN marshmallows I found at Target I believe.. I thought they would be PREFECT for the snowman soup! so I bought 4 bags! :)

Thursdays Share!! (Day 2)

Happy Thursday!! Today is Day 2 of the 12 Days of Xmas shares!! You can find the link HERE at the PTI forum.. lots of FUN stuff being shared! THANKS for joining the fun!!

So today I have 2 gift card holders for ya! :)

For both I used different sets of Nestabilities.. this first one I THINK I am gonna make up for Justins teachers, BUT he has to approve.. he wants NO GIRLY feel to them... SIGH.. so that means no SPARKLE or BLING (and that is HARD for me! ) I think they will pass his 14 year old 8th grade test! HA HA!!! :)
This one is in one piece.. I just folded my CS, and didnt place the die fully on it, so it would open like a card...

This next one.. well it has some glitter.. on the star.. I made the stars up with some of my YUMMY Martha Stewart White Gold Glitter- I LOVE them.. more will be coming! :)
This one I cut 2 of , and just scored so it would open nicely!

Supplies- CS, Ink, Ribbon , and some Stamps- PTI, Stamps-WM, Spellbinders Nestabilities

Challenge I am entering these for-
CRAFTY CREATIONS- Gift Card

So how about another FUN pretzel recipe! The kiddos and I LOVE to make these.. so fast and easy again, and for the price of the dipped ones in stores you could make about 200! No KIDDING!!
I just use Milk Choc. and White Choc. Chips, melted.. then dip.. add sprinkles.. or my personal FAVORITE.. CRUSHED CANDY CANE!! Easy Peasy and sooo YUMMY!!! :)
**FUNNY STORY.. if you made it this far! :) Yesterday Amanda saw my post and said MOM you made those (the goodie I shared yesterday.. ) I said no .. it was an old photo.. she said...
