Christmas in Colorado

As I mentioned in yesterdays post I would catch up.  For Christmas my Allie and Michael came to play.  Christmas dinner our niece and nephew from Denver came for dinner.  We fried a turkey and I baked a ham.  I had to make up for the non-Thanksgiving celebration at my house.  We also had Kevin Allison long time boyfriend come.  We skied three times while they were here.  It was sad to say bye to both kids.  Barry and I have been decompressing this past week.  Its been quite in my house.  Here are a few pictures from the holidays.

Okay so now I am current. Woot Woot!  Here is another card to share.  This one is from the Sale a bration catalog on page 12.  This is a free stamp set.  You have to order $50.00 in product from either the Occasions or Annual catalog.  Both can be found on the right side column of my blog.  To order you can go to http://lizstamps.stampinup.net click on store/ shop put catalog number in and it will come up.  Be sure my name is at the top as demonstrator.  If you want to order thru me I will pay your shipping fee. But you must order thru me. 

Isn't it purrrty?

What...she's back...catching up.

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.  I am SUCH a slacker.  I have been creating but haven't been done much blogging.  For the first time in my husbands and my life we spent Thanksgiving alone.  We went to a little town out west called Ouray, Colorado.  It was cold and beautiful. We stayed at a lodge that had natural hot springs and went out to dinner at a restaurant called The Outlaw.  We hiked to the water fall and shopped the little town.  Oh and went to the brewery/pub for local craft beer.  Here are a few pictures.

Okay stay tuned tomorrow for Christmas... I will end with a card. The Stampin' Up! Occasion Catalog went live January 6th.  It goes thru June 2nd 2015.  It is a great catalog with lots of kits that are easy and beautiful to make.  If you have a demonstrator, awesome! If you don't I would love to be your demonstrator, your own personal crafting go to gal!.  I made this card using the stamp set and paper on page 19 of the Occasions catty.  It is called Paitned Petals.
