I'm Baaaccckkkk !

After a month-long hiatus, I'm back in the saddle again! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season. Me and the dogs traveled to St. Louis and spent two weeks there with my parents. I had a great time. I schlepped all of my scrapbooking stuff with me because I was determined to get some work done. Unfortunately, I managed to leave behind ALL of my inks! ARGH!

I was able to, however, make some place cards for the Christmas dinner we had. They added a nice touch to the table!

I will be posting the Tuesdays with Morley projects in the next couple of days. I also hope to get back into the challenges.

Tuesday's with Morley - December Cards

Here are the cards we'll be doing at our club meeting next week. I couldn't get my creative juices flowing for these, so I borrowed heavily from Split Coast Stampers. However, I think they turned out really cute!

I CASEd this card from Split Coast, but I changed the sentiment. I actually did the card using Sage Shadow paper but then realized that Mellow Moss was a better choice. I changed it out after I had taken the picture, and I was too lazy to take another one!

Tuesday's with Morley - December Scrapbook

I REALLY like this layout! It was alot of fun to put together. But beware - those little jewels on the ornaments can be a real pain to work with.
