Hi girls ..As you can tell the last few days I had my hands making Halloween goodies . Well yesterday I stamped a Christmas Card ( I know can you believe it ?) And of course it just had to be another criss cross card that I so love .. I used the new Design paper called " DASHING " for the front of my Criss cross card and the base is real red cardstock and the insert base is River Rock card stock with whisper white .. I also used the stocking from the hostess set " EVENT FULL " and the tree is from the NEW holiday mini called MERRY & BRIGHT and the Merry Christmas stamp is in this set "HOLIDAY WISHES" I also used the scallop punch from SU! which you can see that HERE. Gee whiz after all that jumping around your head is probably spinning huh? Hee! Hee! I also add a star punch. ( retired ) I also added a touch of Stampin’Up! Red gingham ribbon and last BUT not least my trusty white gel pen for the little dots on the scallop punch and the star & also in the centers of the dots on the belly band .. BUT I also added tiny real red marker dots on the center of my tree loops . I Just stamped the stocking onto the designer paper ( same as the base card layers ) in Black and cut them babies out .. easy peasy huh? I just love it and how Bright it looks ..
Moving on from my bee issue .. Now its my hot Tub .. OH boy I think I will spare you all the details since its such a long story and I may get finger cramps from typing .. ( NO kidding ) But lets just say Me and my lovely mom will be quite busy with that the next couple days .. I am just Praising God its such a nice week weather wise and it wont be soo Bad with what we all have to do .. ( At least thats what I am saying now , ask me tomorrow Better yet Ask me this weekend when I Pray it will all be done .. Now if Only I could find my Turkey baster …. Enough said on this story..
OK on to other things .. HEY you all watching THE BIGGEST LOSER ?? YAHOO .. ..

Dawn your Christams card is so cute. I can’t believe we already have to start thinking about that. Well, good luck on your hot tub and I will be praying for whatever it is you have to do. Oh, yes I am a great fan of the Biggest Looser. It gets me so motivated too. I have already lost 4.8 pounds in the last two weeks. Yeah! Well, take care and I will talk to you soon.
Good morning girlfriend….That card is soooo fantastic! I love it! Are you saying you need to remove the water from your hot tub? If so, use a hose and siphon it out, it will go real fast (just don’t swallow the water, KWIM?). Have a good day! xoxo
I love your Christmas Criss Cross! You used one of my very favorite papers, and I love all those special signature touches you’ve given to it!! Awesome, girl!!
Whatever it is with your tub, I hope the issue is resolved quickly. 😉
Have a great day!! 😉 Hugz!
Good Morning Dawn!
LOVE your crisscross card! They are so fun! Love all your white gel pen work 😉
I am pretty sure someone had a Lost countdown on their blog and yesterday it said 7 days or something like that. If I come upon that today…I’ll holler at ya 😉
Have a GREAT day!
Hugs
DAWN
Wow…I love this one too !!!! Stop it…you’re being too creative !!! 🙂
I’m so glad & excited that you’ll be teaching this crisscross card on Friday at our club meeting. It’s so much better to learn from you in person, kwim?
Here’s a little something to help you along the way with your hot tub:
To Maintain A Healthy Level Of Insanity
1. At Lunch Time, Sit In Your Parked Car With Sunglasses on and point a Hair Dryer At Passing Cars. See If They Slow Down.
2. Page Yourself Over The Intercom. Don’t Disguise Your Voice. !
3. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, ask If They Want Fries with that.
5. Put Decaf In The Coffee Maker For 3 Weeks. Once Everyone has Gotten Over Their Caffeine Addictions, Switch to Espresso.
6. In the Memo Field Of All Your Checks, Write “For Marijuana”
7. Finish All Your sentences with “In Accordance With The Prophecy”.
9. Skip down the hall Rather Than Walk and see how many looks you get.
10. Order a Diet Water whenever you go out to eat, with a serious face.
11. Specify That Your Drive-through Order Is “To Go”.
12. Sing Along At The Opera.
14. Put Mosquito Netting Around Your Work Area and Play tropical Sounds All Day.
15. Five Days In Advance, Tell Your Friends You Can’t Attend Their Party Because You have a headache.
17. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream “I Won! I Won!”
18. When Leaving the Zoo, Start Running towards the Parking lot, Yelling “Run For Your Lives! They’re Loose!”
19. Tell Your Children Over Dinner, “Due To The Economy, We Are Going To Have To Let One Of You Go.”
