Happy Fall!

Good morning friends!  Just a little fall card for you to celebrate this fine season...

I used the tree from Pink Persimmon's Oh Dear Outline set. I spritzed the heck out of this thing with gold glimmer mist, and of course you can't really see it. But its nice and glittery!

I am in the final stretch of this week (it has been never ending!), just waiting until DH comes home so we can start our weekend. Of course I have a ton of stuff to do today, but mostly I just want the time to go by so we can start our weekend! My vacation starts tomorrow with a trip into the city to see some friends, do some stamping, to see New Moon, to get some Christmas shopping done, and just generally relax. Let's just say I can't wait!!!! Then we have DH ALLLLL next week to ourselves for the holiday! It will be absolutely lovely!

What are you up to this weekend?? Have any of you seen New Moon yet? I cannot believe how much frenzy there is over it! Are you crafting this weekend?? Are you seeing friends?? What are you up to? I hope you have a lovely time and I will for sure see you here on Sunday for 365 Cards Sketchy Sunday!!

Thanks for stopping by!

CPS-137: A Scandinavian Christmas

Hey! Today's card is based off the sketch from CPS. CPS 137 to be exact. (and you know how I like to be exact, don't you ; )

I am feeling the Christmas itch people! I have this Pink Persimmon set of deer silhouettes. I couldn't stop thinking of my 'deer' Christmas friend, Rudolph. So I made him a card:
The deer silhouette comes from one set. The outline is another set and the sentiment is yet another set! You can find them all HERE. Go ahead. Pick yourself up one or more, I'll wait..... They certainly are fun!  

I double cut my scallop circle so I could overlap them and make a fancy circle medallion thing-y. (the official kristie term...) I thought the tree image in the silhouette set reminded me of some of the Scandinavian fabrics and designs you can find at Ikea. I think I even have some Christmas decorations from last year that reminded me of it, which is why I chose the color combo and design for this one. PLUS my DH's family line is Scandinavian (waaaaay back) so I thought it only appropriate. Am I crazy or does it look Scandinavian to you too? Ok, maybe I'm crazy ; )

How is your week turning out?? DH left town again today for the weekend. Sheesh, I hope I can get a lot done. Last time he was gone I really had high hopes and definitely under performed. I hope to do better this time. I have some new stamp sets to use (oh, you can't wait... trust me!) and some submissions and of course challenges to keep me busy! I hope you have a glorious Thursday! I think I have cinnamon roll in my near future and I wish at LEAST that much for you too today. Thanks for visiting!
