Abbie and Lexie play keep away with bones

Pictures of my Sister, The Shih Tzu, Abbie

Doesn't Abbie look cute in her Christmas atire. She is a sweet little dog. She is the center of my mother's world. (Can't you tell by her outfits?) Abbie is a very loved little dog. 

Greetings From Swap at Your Paper Pantry

These are the three greeting cards I made for the Greetings Swap at Your Paper Pantry. I love vintage images, so I took some of my favorite and turned them into some beautiful Christmas Cards.

Embellish It Swap at Your Paper Pantry

This is my glass bottle I decorated for the Embellish It swap. My bottle is covered with ceramic roses and I handmade a beaded tassel to hand from the back handle. It was a lot of fun to do this swap. Thank you Marlene for a wonderful idea and a fun swap.

BFF Swap at the JuleBox

This is the front and back of my wallhanging project for the Friends and Family BFF project that janna did on her blog and youtube channel. The white accordian book is attached by magnets and comes off easily and the copper envelope has plenty of places inside for photos. I hope my group likes their BFF wall hanging. I made this using the Tim Holtz Baroque die.

Charm Swap at Cindy's Cropping Corner for November

This is my charm for Cindy's charm swap for November. I made it longer than usual and added several beads down the chain and used a fishing swivel hook for the clasp. They work really good for charm hooks and swivel clasps.

For November at Your Paper Pantry for the Image Tag Swap we were to stamp a christmas image on a tag for the swap. Here are my two images. I used the Tim Holtz Holidays Collection.
