Christmas is coming!

Holiday Greetings!  It has been a while since I got on and posted, and I have missed it!  This has been the year for my 100,000 mile tune-up and I have spent the last couple of months recovering from one thing or another (none of it elective!)...but I am good to go now and looking forward to an awesome Christmas with family and friends.  Hope you are all enjoying these days of December as well! This is my husband Jamie and daughter Lauren pictured with me in the photo.  We wish you a Merry Christmas!
We went to another Christmas party last night at the home of some good friends.  I got out  my camera and took a few pictures.  Because I love CraZy TACKz, I have been enjoying how my friends are using them to "Hook it Up" for the Holidays.  My friend Rosa has used them in an inventive way to hang up her Christmas cards.  Take a peek!
 The clear "basic" CraZy TACKz are holding up the ends of her swag she created by braiding some jute into a long cord. Great for showing off her Christmas cards!
CraZy TACKz are great for sticking your die-cut decoration to the wall and then using the hook to "hook-up" the swag, garland, or lights.  Here is a close-up to see how nifty it works.
Pictured is one of Rosa's trees, gracing the family room.  If you look close, you will see that she made some more garland out of her braided jute.  She could clip anything to it that she wants!  Clever and creative!  Her designs are also very inexpensive to make.  Thanks for sharing, Rosa!
 Rosa and her youngest son, Joel.  He is a Marine back home.  He has a brother in the Marines and another bro in the Navy.  All of her sons are serving their country.  She is a proud mom and we are proud of our home grown service boys!
 After a good time was had by all, lots of fun, food and fellowship, Tucker and I snuggled up on the couch for some good old Hallmark channel on TV.  He had his favorite ball of course.  I plan on pulling the squeaker out of it one of these days....if he doesn't do it first!  Lol.  Thanks for reading my Blog, I love staying connected with all of you and I have to say.....I do LOVE my CraZy TACKz.  We will be introducing them at the Craft & Hobby Show in Anaheim in January.  Hope to see some of you there!  You know who you are!  Hugs!


Merry Christmas Crafting!
