Day 25-MERRY CHRISTMAS! 25 Days of Christmas Crafting Fun!

Welcome to Day 24 of the 25 Days of Christmas Crafting Showcase.  Today we are focusing on Jesus is the reason for the seanson!  Make sure you stop by Cooking with Cricut to check out all of the designers wonderful projects today and each day during our showcase!  


I made some goodies for my SOR (School of Religion Students). 

I used Art Philosophy to cut the green fancy square at 4 inches, then I cut the white (using center cut because I printed the sentiment out on my computer) at 3.75 inches.  I added the red faux stitching, used some brads to keep them together and added the candy cane for the J!  The kids loved them.

Don't forget to go back to Cooking with Cricut to see all of the great freebies and ideas shared by the other designers.  You can also enter to win some great prizes!  (Make sure you read the requirements for the giveaways completely).

Thanks for stopping by and have a craft day!

My Favorite Cooking Website!

So I did not do any crafting this weekend, although I did make a trip to AC Moore for some adhesive!  I am starting to get my supplies ready for the end of the year teacher gifts.  I did, however, do some cooking (I do not "cook" everyday although my kids do eat every day :)).  I love the website http://www.picky-palate.com/.  I mostly visit her for cookies and other desserts but I love all of her recipes (a couple of weeks ago I did the No-Bake Chewy bars in Oreo and Nutter Butter they were SUPER easy and yummy!).  On Saturday I made her peanut butter and jelly monkey bread, it was super delicious!  The kids loved it.  Then on Sunday I made her mozzerella stuffed homemade meatballs.  Those were super yummy also and pretty easy as well.  So although I did not get to any paper crafting this weekend, I did get to cooking and the girls helped a little (which they love).  The boys just helped eat the results, LOL.  Here are a few pictures :)

Also, my 3 year old received her very first haircut from my wonderful sister-in-law (I was also getting one).  Just a trim but it was such a cute experience and she was SO excited!  Here are some pics of my cutie patootie.
