Happy Advent!

We will be moving soon and I am sitting in my house with boxes stacked

high with more to packing to do.

 It is finally time to prepare my crafting supplies for transport to their new home!

Little do they know that our new home will have a room officially designated for them!

Since we will be in the midst of packing, moving and unpacking for the next several weeks I will be taking a break from blogging. 

Look for me to be back January 2012 with all kinds of new and fun projects

made in my new crafting room!

(I promise you will get to see pictures when that is done too!)

In the meanwhile have

a Happy Advent,

a Merry Christmas,

and enjoy ringing in the New Year with some style!

Words for Wednesdays

"Gratitude bestows reverence,

allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies,

those transcendent moments of awe

that change forever how we experience

life and the world."

John Milton

Technique Tuesdays

Yesterday's card showed a lovely simple technique:

Tone on Tone stamping

Just use your coordinating cocoa ink and cocoa paper - stamp your leaves

and Voila!

A beautiful rich tone on tone paper!

Mojo Mondays
