Speedy Fox - Round the Corners

The challenge for Speedy Fox and Friends this week is to round the corners.   I just made my whole card round so I definitely rounded the corners.  I used the cute Santa from the MFP  stamp set called
"Holiday Tag".  I hope you can join us for the challenge.

This is the last Speedy Fox challenge for this year.  We will be back in January with a new challenge.

I wish you and yours a wonderful Christmas season.

The latest news in Boxertown

Meet Tucker, the newest member of our family.  How could one not love this sweet little face?   I fell in love with him at first sight.  He has been here for eight days and is doing very well with his house training.   He is such a couch potato and is getting very spoiled, if you can believe that.  

I had a procedure done on my shoulder two weeks ago and I have been doing therapy everyday.   I have so much more movement of my shoulder so the procedure was a success.

I am so falling apart these days, but at 113 yrs of age ~grin~ that is what happens.  I have had lots of hip pain for the last two weeks and now I am dealing with that, but it will get better soon.

All of this doctor and therapy "stuff" is sure interfering with my card making and commenting.   I apologize  for not getting around to all of your blogs like I should.    Things should be back to normal soon, at least, I hope it is.

I got to keep the grand baby today.  He has strip throat and could not go to day care.   I always love having him, but I sure hate to see him sick.  Since he did not feel well, I got more lap time with him.

That is the latest happenings here.  Hope all is going well for you and you family.

Thanks, for stopping by.

Classy Cards N Such - Carried to Heaven

I made this card for Classy Cards N Such.    Sympathy cards are the hardest to make when you need one so I try to have a few made a head of time.  I used a Anna Griffin Matelasse embossing folder, it happens to be one of my favorites,  it always looks so fresh and crisp.  The stamp and the angel wings are by Our Daily Bread Designs.  The label I used to mount the flower on is Spellbinders Decorative Labels Twenty Seven dies.  All of the products mentioned may be found at Classy Cards N Such Store.

Squigglefly Challenge - Snowman Ornament

The challenge over at the Squigglefly blog this week is given by Rhonda's Rowdy Rascals.  The challenge it to use die cute or embossing.  I have used both on my card.  The Squigglefly image that I used is a new release by Pam Lehto called "Snowman with Ornament".   There are many new images if you want to go over and take a look.

Speedy Fox and Friends - Christmas Tags

A few weeks ago the challenge for Speedy Fox and Friends we were to make Christmas eye candy suitable for a card.  This week we are making Christmas tags.  I used my eye candy to make my card.  I used the Holiday Tag Set for my eye candy.

I hope you can find time to joy us for the challenge.

Classy Cards N Such - Make A Beautiful Tag

I hope you find inspiration today from the Classy Cards N Such blog challenge.   Sometimes I just need a little push to get my creativity flowing.   I am so glad we were challenged to make a tag or a card with a tag for this week.  It encouraged me to make this beautiful tag for a special Christmas gift this year.  This recipient of the gift loves purple so I had to use this beautiful purple foil paper on my card.  I chose to use a bare tree die, small deer die and glitter for my tag.   All of the products can be found at the Classy Cards N Such Store.  You may use the code Shirley-10 for a discount.
