Hello to all of you! I am back from my Wonderful Vacation!
It was so hard to get up and go to work this morning after such a
good time off! But the minute I stepped into my class and saw all those smiling little
faces it was good to be back!
It is also that time of the week for City Crafter Challenge..
And I am hosting this week, So of course I wanted to do a Christmas theme!
And for some weird reason the first thing that popped into my head was Elvis's
Blue Christmas song. So I went with it..
So that is the challenge this week! To make a Christmas Project using the color Blue..
So here is what I came up with!
Some of my favorite thing are on here.. My DP is from K&CO.
I did a little sewing and added some lace.

I just love this image and I just feel so bad because I don't
know which site I got it from. I got it awhile ago! If any one knows
please let me know and I will give them some credit.
And three little buttons to top it off..
If you want to play along you can head on over to CCCB!
Or you can hop on over and take a look at what all the other ladies have created!
I am sure you won't be disappointed.
