So Christmas in July. I have had a couple of requests to make the Faux Christmas cakes and Toppers again this year. I wasn't sure if I would but I have to admit that it was fun last year and I sold quite a few of the cakes and mug toppers. Here a just a few of the cakes that were done.

Ok, I won't elaborate on why this card was needed but he was. lol. Stamp is from Stamping Bella.

This little cutie is a Digital Stamp by Sherri Baldy designs. The Tree branch is from Honey Bee. This was such a fun card to do as this little bee is just the cutest.

The Whimsy Ostrich

I'm not sure what it is about this little guy but I love his look. He's absolutely perfect for putting a needed smile on a Friends face.

Whimsy Giraffe

I couldn't wait to use this stamp to creat a card for my friend. We've had an ongoing inside joke about Giraffes for a couple of years now. When I saw this stamp set, I knew I had to create a card for her with it. lol

Christmas 2020

I think this year was different but special just the same. My favorite gift this year is my Photo that Don surprised me with from Fracture of the puppies. Too Cute. I will confess that it is Feb 10th and I still have my Christmas Tree in the Media Room. The Bedroom tree came down the end of January. Don actually tried talking me into keeping it up but the beach was waiting. lol.

Happy 2021

Here's hoping that 2021 presents itself were fewer challenges than 2020 did. While there was so much craziness going on in the world with the Covid Pandemic, Political issues and BLM movement all of which are very scary in my opinion. I wish we could go back in time to simpler days. No hate, no Virus or masks required. I miss those days when you could just get together with a friend. Social Distancing has taken the place of Hugs (and trust me I'm a hugger, so this hurts.) Ok, lets talk some happy now. While yes, there was alot going on outside of my house, there was also alot going on inside my house. Yes, Don and I are taking advantage of the Quarantining and Overtime (yes, that is a bonus) and we've done some work in the house. The upstairs has gotten some Wood Floors and new Furniture and our Bedroom has turned into a bit of a Beach Oasis. Don said the other night that it looked like a Bedroom in a beachhouse. Yep, that's what I was going for. On another note, I am now working at home full time and I'm loving it. Yes, I must confess that there are days that I'mm still in my PJ's when Don gets home from work. lol As Don would say, Eeeez fine. Lastly, the holidays. I tried out a new hobby this year and had so much fun with it. Faux mug toppers and Cakes. I was surprised that it was easier than I thought. Took some practice and trial and error but I'd say all in all it was a success. I went all out on the decorating this year. I actually had 3 Christmas trees but with everything going on, I think the whole world went a little more into Christmas this year.
