I spent the entire day, yesterday, partying. I had two Holiday parties to attend and we played White Elephant games at each.
Here is what I made for them...
The first party was with some scrapbooking friends.
Amongst other fun festivities, we had a pop quiz.... Christmas Trivia. Out of 20 (I think) questions, plus a bonus, I only got 8 right! Pathetic isn't it? Can you name all the of the children from the Sound of Music?! I couldn't.
The second was with the Texas Bellas. Shea and Debbie hosted in their amazing, renovated church. Seriously AMAZING!
They had an ornament project for us to do. Lots of fun! And it was so lovely to get to see so many Bella friends again.
Have a beautiful day!

Hi Alisa. I was just at Diane Knott's Musings where she posted about your blog. I'm so glad she did. This are so beautiful! They take my breath away. How wonderfully creative you are. These should be headed straight to a magazine.
Merry Christmas & Hugs...Tracy :)

Well the gals that got your gifts were the luckiest girls in Texas yesterday!! Simply glorious!! Love how you did the trees. So much of what we do we learned in Kindergarten- that is when i learned to make that type of tree. i ahd totally forgotten till I saw your stunning examples!!! Love your work!!

Debbie
Uhh, yeah, I got a magnifying mirror and some penis shaped pasta. I went to the wrong party.
Alisa,
It was so nice to see you yesterday! Man, oh man, was I so disappointed when Miss Stacy stole your wonderful gift from me, but so thrilled when Lisa stole it from her! Lisa lives so close, I know I'll get to see it again soon and truly, it will look fabulous amidst her little collection of frosted treaures!
All the best,
Susie

Those packages look so beautiful. I bet they where the hit of the party. Oh and I know one of the boys was called Hans and a the older girl was Lisl.
Love your new profile picture! Very mysterious.
I LOVE LOVE those boxes! They are just Gorgeous!

I just found you somehow through Theresa's e-zine. The paper wreath was my most favorite project. I love how you incorporated it in your decorating. Very nice. I also love how your boxes turned out. I just bought some little birds like that from Target. Might they be the same little birds? The recipients HAD to love them!
