Christmas Tag/Gift Card Holder ~ Penguin Cuties {2nd Post}

I used Suzanne's tutorial {here} from the Lawnscaping blog again.
I changed it up a little by folding the bag up at the 
existing bottom score line and using that for my envelope bottom. 
I needed my envelope to be shorter since the tag I used is smaller.




*Bag cut using the Goodie Bag die from Lawn Fawn.
*Tag cut using the Tag, You're It die set from Lawn Fawn.
*Penguin from the Tobaggan Together stamp set from Lawn Fawn.
*Penguins cut using the Tobaggan Together die set from Lawn Fawn.
*Heart cut using the Snow Day die set from Lawn Fawn.
*Christmas sentiment from the Winter Gifts stamp set from Lawn Fawn.
*Warm heart sentiment from the Snow Day stamp set from Lawn Fawn.
*Design paper from The Artic Wishes Stack from DCWV
*YR07 and 100 markers from Copics.
*Memento Tuxedo Black stamp pad from Tsukineko.

May your day always be filled with love and laughter.

Christmas Card ~ A Cup of Yummy {1st Post}

Okay this flu took me longer than expected to kick.
My mission is to not get it back.  
That can be a little tricky working in a school. lol.

I have slowly been creating a little here and there.
I broke out this week's Mojo Monday sketch for inspiration.
I used an image from this sweet digi set created by Julee at Verve Stamps.
{available for free here through Dec. 25th}
Thanks Julee!

OMGosh...

I was looking forward to last week so much.
It was Thanksgiving week here in the US.
School was only scheduled for Monday and Tuesday 
with a teacher workday scheduled for the following Monday.
That meant I would have 6 glorious days off.
Time to spend with the family and do some crafting.
Last Wednesday morning I woke up with the start 
of the worst case of stomach flu I have ever experienced.
Sadly I spent a whole week in bed including Thanksgiving day.
Tomorrow I am going to make an attempt to go back to work.

Thanks so much for your patience as I recover from this ugly bug.

Hugs,
Dawn
