Keeping Busy With Crafting....

Hello :) How are you this week? It is sooo ugly out right now, lol. It is raining really hard and is so dark, it feels like it is about five in the afternoon :( A day to stay home, drink hot chocolate and watch Christmas and girly movies all day, lol. I think that is what I will do when I get off here. Dave is playing video games, so he wont care what I watch. I am making chicken cacciatorre in the crockpot also. One of my favorites and pure comfort food.

I have also been doing a lot of crafting. Which you probably already know, lol. Yesterday, I worked on these petite collages or extra large tags. Last week, I purchased some great cardboard sheet music cards at Pottery Barn. They were in the Christmas section but I thought they would be great for crafting! Here are a couple I have finished so far.


Love this one :) I glittered the edges...
And made a rose out of burlap. Has a really romantic look to it.
This one, I did in more of a collage or tag style. I used a vintage clothing ad for a corset and then added the phrase, A beautiful corset makes a graceful gown.
Vintage lace doily as well, Super fun! I can tell I will have a lot of fun creating these. I am going to go back and get more packages of them. They are so nice and made of heavy cardboard and a perfect size. I want to make some things for Valentines day with them.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your week and weekend. What is on your Christmas list this year? I don't need a thing but have a huge wish list in my favorites on Etsy, not to mention a few of my favorite bloggers shoppes, Victoria's Secret, Ugg and Sephora, lol. Oh well, wishing is fun, right? I haven't told anyone I want these things, it is my private wish list, lol. Do you have a wish list? What is on it??

I have been thinking of what I want to do and get done in the new year. Lots of personal health issues that I want to take care of. But obviously I am not going to share them here! I am thinking of doing some more things around the house though too. Getting my craft room set up, working on Savannah's birthday.

Thanks for visiting me! ~ Amy

I'm like you there are lots of things I'd love but lets face it money is best spent elsewhere. Nice to wish for things though.
