 AJ Scrapbooking & Cards & Angela's Crafty Spot!

I have been really struggling with my mojo for about a month or so...I feel like what I try and do never comes out the way I expected it to, or want it to. I struggled with this project as well. I sure hope that you all like it. It was very simple and quick. I took a white lunch sack and embossed it with a darice heart embossing folder. inked sponged it with Stampin'Up primrose petals ink and used my pinking shears on the top of the bag. I used the bird Builder punch (Item # 117191) with some scraps I have. the hearts are from an older punch that a good friend gave me and the smallest heart is a SU punch. I used the newest of my growing SU stamp collection, called You Are Loved (Item # 123779 Clear) it coordinates with the decorative label punch (Item #120907) Ribbon is some I won on a blog hop.

Hi all my bloggy friends!!!

I have to apologize for not sticking to my blog, but things have been very crazy for me. And to be honest I am really having a hard month.

I will be ok and things are going to get better, but just need to get through December.  I have joined Ashley's Gingerbread Blog Hop on the 14th of this month. I really look forward to doing this and seeing all the Gingerbread projects!! See ya soon!!!

A couple cards I made for " I Feel the Love Project"

Well I have my cards finished and so now I will be linking them over at Madison's for all to see along with my Banner. I was having a hard time with my crafty mojo and I was at a loss and running out of time to get all of them into the mail. I went to my stack of old Christmas cards from years past and just went to town, and here is the end Result!!  

 This card only has a little bit of recycled items, the merry Christmas on front and the inside red and gold strips. It is the paper I used in my banner and the ornament is from Stampin'up Bundle.

Tree is from the Christmas Lodge set, also Stampin 'Up

Thanks for stopping by!!
