And last is a bird ATC. For this one the background was downloaded from Lisa Vollrath's holiday countdown last year. I spritzed it with some watered down CTMH sand re-inker mixed Perfect Pearls. The bird is from a magazine.


I spent Saturday cleaning and getting ready to decorate for Christmas. Our living room is pretty full of furniture and Allison's toys so I had to do some re-arranging for the tree. I also decided to get my yarn stash organized. Most of the skeins were in a box behind a chair. I put some in a large basket and I found a big hatbox that I put the rest in. It looks lots better than it did. I am hurting pretty bad now from all the moving and cleaning. I took frequent breaks but still overdid it for the day. I hope I have the energy to get the decorating done.I hope to get started after church. I want to put up a real tree in the living room and an 6' artificial in the dining room. I also have two 4', one for the living room on the radiator and one for the kitchen radiator. Then I have a 3' for at the top of the stairs. The smaller trees are already decorated. Last year I hot glued everything on. I got that idea when I was working at Michaels from the floral designers. I just tied a garbage bag over them and took them to the attic. What a nifty idea! If it gets warm again, I think I'll try to hang some lights outside. I haven't had any up for several years but Allison will like to see them so I'll give it a try.
Well, I guess I'd better try to get some sleep or I won't want to get up for church or do any of the decorating later. Until next time, God bless.
