Taking a break

As it is a very busy time for us all, I think I will take a little break from blogging this week. I will post my projects as I get time to create.. which will be at least a week. :) (so much family and so many parties!) I plan to be scrapbooking and blogging in full force by the new year! I have lots of new product from the new Idea Book that I'm excited to use and share with you!!

My son had me take this picture of the sunset out our back door so I thought I would share it with you!!

I wish you all the very merriest Christmas and a wonderful new year!!

Busy Days...

I haven't been doing much scrapbooking lately but I have been working on some quilts. I'm really not much of a quilter but these are really easy, well at least the star part is. I've found that finishing them up is much harder than I thought. This one is for my husbands brother who is finally getting married Jan. 2nd. We'll see if I can get it finished by then. Also as a side thought it is MUCH easier and cheaper to just buy a nice quilt...

Fishin' Hole Layout

I made this layout for my husband and my boys. They have this awesome fishing spot on some private property that they just love to go to. Unfortunately my desktop computer crashed before I could print out the pics to put them on the pages. I hope that I can at least get the pics off the hard drive before they have to totally reset my computer...

Just a thought...

I was looking over my blog and on the right hand side I have a place that shows where people are from who have visited my blog. My thought is that if some of you also have blogs I'd love to visit yours as well. You can leave me a comment with your blog address or email it to me at lazydaisyranch@hotmail.com! Thanks to all of you who visit my blog, I honestly was a little worried that only my local friends would visit. It's neat to see that I create things that are worth you time to visit my blog! Thanks again, S

Flurry Chipboard Card

I made this card using the new Flurries chipboard. I love snowflakes!! I added some prisma glitter to the snowflake. The template comes from the Wishes how to book and it's called Lower Layers. By the way in the Rhinestone Fram it says peace on earth. I really need a better camera...

Joy Christmas Card

Today is has been a snow storm and I am so grateful for my warm cozy home. I would probably like the snow a lot better if it was warmer. I do not like to be cold. I do however like to decorated crafty (fake) snow flakes and snowmen!
