Week 4 Christmas card

Hello Everyone,
   It's the 1st of November, Hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween. I was home all alone. My boys went to Fright night at Six Flags and my husband was over his nephew's house to watch the patriots Game. We  didn't have many Trick Or Treaters, maybe 6 in all, so it was quiet.  I had the house all to myself. Gotta love that once in awhile. I did absolutely nothing and now am kicking myself. I should have stamped and created but I didn't. The inspiration just wasn't there.
    Today I have the house to myself til about 4. I am stamping and listening to Christmas music. I know I know it's early yet. But I love Christmas music and after all I am making Christmas cards it helps the mood.
Here is my week 4 card for the 12 weeks of Christmas. Can you believe it, 50 days til Christmas, yikes! 25 til Thanksgiving!

Here it is,it's kinda dark.

Christmas Card week 1

Hello Everyone,

Here is a card that was sent to my E-mail from one of the demonstrators/upline that  did Quarterly meetings in Rhode Island that I use to go to. Her name is Marni Levitt. She is doing an e-mail 12 weeks of Christmas and this is the Christmas card week 1 that I cased from that. I didn't really change up this one at all , except the grosgrain ribbon because I didn't have the 5/8 width. Very simple but cute.

It's been quite the weekend. My younger son K.J went to a friend's house Friday night. I was just going to bed at about 11:30 when the phone call came in. " There's been a serious accident K.J and a few friends were in the bedroom and the bed collapsed onto  K.J's  head. I was soo scared all I could think about was that his skull was crushed. She said we should pick him up and take him to the hospital,so my husband and I went to get him. Luckily it wasn't as bad as I had imagined it was. He was bleeding and there was a nice gash on the side of his head. He ended up getting 4 staples. It took us forever in the ER by the time I got home it was 2:30 am and I had to be up at 6:00am to go into work. Needless to say he had a slight concussion and the 4 staples. He was actually very lucky that it more a less grazed his head and didn't fall completely on top of him. He just had to take it easy for a few days and the staples need to come out in a few days.

Recipe for card:

Stamps: I (heart) Hearts, Patterned Pines, Christmas Cardinal.(sentiment)

Inks: Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler. 

Card Stock: Cherry Cobbler, Jolly Holiday DSP, Old Olive, WW.

Accessories: White grosgrain ribbon colored with Old Olive Stampin Write marker.
