Catching Up, and Theater Cards and Gifts

Hey friends! I apologize for the crickets 'round these parts lately. I have been doing a LOT of stuff, just not blogging, I guess! It's that time of year...... ;) Lots of shopping, wrapping, parties, lunches with friends, etc. but just not much blogging. Finally have everything bought for Christmas, most things wrapped, cards done, and everything shipped that needs to go out! Whew! Now onto baking, next! ;) I did made some new holiday cards today, and took a Copic class sponsored by The Greeting Farm Stamps last week. It was taught by my blog friend Carisa Zglobicki, and she did a fantastic job! I learned so much about shading. :) Here are two of my people that I colored, I am pretty proud of them! :)

Also, we have had a Silver and Gold feature up at CardMaker blog this month! So far, I have had a card up, and an ornament. On Thursday, I will have a sweet gift card holder, so check it out if you can!

Of course, my Sis and I are always busy keeping up with Craft Storage Ideas site as well. My other "blog baby" if you will. ;) We are having a Contributor Call right now! Please apply if you are interested! :)

Well, I wanted to show you *something* else today, anyway.... This isn't very Christmasey, but it is SOMETHING I had been wanting to share anyway, so here goes!

I normally make some things for my theater kids and helpers and the show I had in October was no exception! Just had no time to blog it until now, so here you are. :)

I didn't have time to make cards for every student this time, so I made these little tags that I hot glued to chopsticks. I then slipped these into the flowers we had made up for the kids. 

These cards were for my 3 assistants, they were so much help! 

There was a pocket inside for gift cards, too. 

Thanks for stopping by!
