We are through Christmas-heading into a new year!

Good Sunday evening to you all!- I hope this post finds that all of you had a wonderful Christmas with your families and your friends!  My time with my family was great.  Of course, there was really good food, sweet treats, and presents.  I received a few nice things.  I am blessed with what ever is given to me, and my husband.  It is back to starting another work week, and then we head into a New Year- 2011!  WOW- so hard to believe that this year is gone, but we are moving on to new times, new opportunities, and possibilities to share.  I pray that those that do not have jobs, are able to find them.  It is super tough in this economy, and even though I have frustrations with my job, I am most certainly happy to have it, and able to meet my obligations.

Since it is the day after Christmas- all the sales were on today.  My main goal today was to get gift bags, tissue paper, wrapping paper, you name it, so I could be stocked for next year!!  I did pretty well in that dept.  The crowds weren't too bad.  My hubby put up some more Bygel Rails from IKEA in my craft room.  I have more space to store more punches.  I now have a total of six rails  up above my desk.  I will update my pictures of my craft area soon, AND when my camcorder comes in, I will put up a video on You Tube to show you my space as well, so be looking for that.  Well- those are my updates for now.  I would like to share a card with you all.

I had made this card back in October for a friend's birthday.  She, like myself, loves butterflies.  I stamped the butterfly, and then used my blender pens to color in the butterfly to give it a soft look.  I just made a "pool" of various colors from some of my Stampin' Up ink pads.  I love the "foil" effect that the roses give on the back ground paper that I used to adhere to my card base.

It is getting late here, so I need to wrap up tonight's post, before heading off bed.  Be good to one another!!
Night my friends!!

Be Inspired!!,
