{KKS} You Lift Me Up!

Hey everyone!! Welcome back to day FOUR of our DECEMBER Kraftin' Kimmie Peeks!!! Have you been enjoying all the yummy peeks so far? All of our brand new CLEAR stamp sets will be released on Sunday afternoon!! Are you excited? Are you coming to the party?? Woohoo! 

The totally adorable stamp set that we're previewing today is full of love and encouragement!! The set is from artist Cheryl Grant and it's called YOU LIFT ME UP!!! It features our favourite kids, Lulu and Lucas plus a furry friend! The set also includes EIGHT coordinating sentiments! 

Here is my coloured image! I don't what kind of brain glitch I experienced here, but I thought I had my card completely done- turns out I had only coloured the image and laid out the supplies (paper, embellies, etc) and chosen the sketch! Got home really late from my children's community Christmas concert to find no card! LOL! Just a pile of stuff- I must have 'mentally made up' the card and called it good!? Oh my! I need help! I'm almost embarrassed to admit all of that! But I will have the card finished and post edited once I get the kiddos off to school in the morning! 

REVISED!!! So I got my card made up- and I actually changed the layout a bit from what was in my mind, and changed up some dies and I am really happy with the way it turned out! YIPPEE! Love it when it ends up better than you had hoped! I went with a really kraft warm feel and decided to ink it up quite a bit with frayed burlap distress ink. I don't know why but the pink enamel dot is photographing really bright! It actually really matches up well with the DP!

I hope you can come hang out with me and the Krafty Girls at our LIVE ONLINE RELEASE PARTY! The fun begins at 2pm EST on Sunday afternoon and we'll be celebrating the new stamp sets with fun and prizes!

{SPD} Advent Calendar HOP!

Advent Calendar Extravaganza is -the- festive event of the season! This ‘hop with a twist’ was dreamed up by Taheerah Atchia and features surprise destinations each day! Joining in the fun with Taheerah are over 60 special guests - each serving up some fantastic Christmas inspiration! Just like an Advent Calendar, you’ll never know where you’re going to be visiting next until you ‘open the door’!

Visit the SugarPea Designs blog to see what our talented lineup of designers created to get you into the festive season and be sure to visit Taheerah's Advent Calendar Extravaganza Hop page  to win a prize from us!

For my project today, I've made my three little guys some Christmas tags to go on their gifts from mommy and daddy! Every year I usually make ONE set of more 'extravagant' tags for the boys (you never know the fate of a gift tag on Christmas morning, so I kind of would hate to invest a ton of time and work into a doomed outcome! At least if these get all torn up in the excitement, it's not a huge loss LOL)

Ryan- my oldest boy. A worrier at by nature, this elf seemed perfect for him. He often has a look of fret on his face!

Jake- my middle child. He is the most artistic, and even creative of all the kids. Loves arts and crafts....this elf suits him fine!

Hayes- my baby boy. He is small and feisty. Likes to make the rules and control us all, hehe! This little elf has the important job of directing Santa's landing. Hayes loves to feel important too :)

All of these adorable Santa's helpers can be found in the SugarPea Designs set Merry Makers. I conveniently cut them out using the coordinating die of the same name, found HERE. The tag, banner strip, and 'to' are from the Gift Tag die set.

Hope you enjoyed my holiday tags!

Thanks for stopping by my blog for this fun Christmas Blog Hop! Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season!
