2012 in Review


Happy New Year's Eve everyone!! It is hard to believe that another year will be in the books. It they go by much faster I think it would be easier to leave the Christmas decorations up. Don't forget to eat your Black-eyed Peas!

The final card is a thank you! This is so appropriate as I wish to thank each of you who visits. I know each of you are so busy yet you leave comments and encouragement that are greatly treasured! I pray that 2013 will be a year that sees you making memories and loving those around you. Happy New Year friends! ~Rhonda



Thankful Thursday #52


 

Thankful Thursdays are my opportunity to "Up My Gratitude." The goal is to make at least one card a week to thank someone. I LOVE when you play along by linking up below. 



Today is the last Thankful Thursday! #52 has arrived. I have to say that I am proud of myself for keeping it going. It was a LOT harder that I imagined it to be. I tend to start out good and then something happens to change my focus or life happens. It wasn't always easy, especially when inspiration just wasn't there or traveling or trying to plan ahead for busy times BUT I DID IT!!! Perseverance is what it is about.



I am very thankful to YOU for visiting and for those who played along and gave much needed encouragement. ~Rhonda

Thankful Thursday #51

This is also a catch up card as I missed a week in September during vacation. I keep wondering why the weeks weren't working out but had not slowed down long enough to investigate. aaahhh Live and Learn!! A super easy card today.


Have a great week! ~Rhonda

Thankful Thursday #50

My card this week is inspired by the Mojo Monday #272 sketch. I thought this would be a perfect sketch for some mailable cards. I had never inked up the snowflakes in Verve's Merry Wishes till now. I embossed them in white. They are absolutely beautiful and gave such a clear impression.



The paper is from Carta Bella's Winter Fun 6x6 pad. The blue, taupe, and red color and patterns are so pretty.



I considered just a strip of kraft paper to help with the mail-abilty but I just had to use the kraft ribbon from PTI. The sentiment from fillable frames on a tiny tag tied with twine finishes these cards.

Have a safe weekend. Don't run over anyone trying to get to a parking space. ~Rhonda

Thankful Thursdays #49

What is your Christmas color palette? I have seen lots of red and aqua mist together. It won't work in my house but goes great into the mailbox! "Thankful" is a die from Papertrey Ink. The "4 you" is a new stamp set from MFT - gift card greetings. 

Hoping to get some Christmas shopping done soon. One present bought means a lot more to be finished. Make sure you thank a harried store clerk this week. I'm sure they could use an extra smile.

Thanks for stopping by friends! ~Rhonda

Thankful Thursday #48

I thought I would get a little ahead by making some Christmas thank you cards. I used Candy Cane Christmas to make my background paper. These would be super easy to mass produce.


Some twine and a thank you sentiment from Star Prints were all that was needed to finish this "sweet" card.


Have you finished decorating your home for Christmas? I have two more homes to finish then I will start some shopping. I'm WAYYYY behind. ~Rhonda
