Hello my sweet friends.
I hate to say it but I still don't have all my decorating done.
I am one to usually get it all done in one day.
But not this year!!
I will get a little bit more done today. I have been pulling
out one box at a time. Enjoying and taking this decorating business
nice and slow. Next on my list is to get all those cards I made in the mail.
*****
That very talented Ros is our host this week over at
City Crafters and has given us this lovely photo for inspiration.
isn't it pretty.
So I made a Tag.. I really should have made another card.
What was I thinking.
And I found this black and white vintage photo off
of Google. I think it goes perfect for the look I was going for.
You know what to do if you want the low down on
this challenge.
Well I have another box calling my name so
I better get off this computer.
I do hope you have a happy week my friends
And I really do appreciate all your kind comments.
Hugs~

I remember that I use to start decorating the day of Thanksgiving and have everything done by that weekend! That is only a memory!! Love this tag and that images is perfect and looks amazing framed with stitching! Happy Decorating! Hugs!
Slow and easy is best this year so you will enjoy everything, Linda! I love the photo's and your tag is fabulous! It is amazing how time has flown by this year, so I must enjoy the last 30 days of this month for sure. Have a wonderful Tuesday!
Really lovely tag. Love the red against the muted colours.
Cute, cute snowmen and your card is so lovely. Yeah, I need to get back to the decorating...what is it about staying away from the computer. I need to move my laptop out of the kitchen...too accessible!! Hugs!!
Looks like Xmas is coming to you! Love the tag, especially how you have used the stitching, and of course, the lovely photo. Hugs, Valerie
i like the bokeh in the last shot!
There isn't any rush to get all the decorations up; you have until Christmas Eve.
Loving your beautifully stitched tag Linda. Hugs Annette x
Nice to know I'm not the only one who hasn't completed Christmas decorating! And those handmade cards are quite lovely! Happy holidays:)
Such a pretty tag Linda! You've been busy with your card making...it's no wonder you haven't had time to get all your decorating done! Ah...home made cards are the best!!! You will get one from me from Costco! Lol!
Linda, we don't even have a tree yet!
Your tag is so beautiful. I love that image and the red really pops.
I think I need to find a snowman like the first photo - he is so cute :o)
How ever you manage to create such beauty,I will never know! I'm always in awe of your gorgeous vintage style! Enjoy your leisurely decorating, I'm afraid the mine probably wont be done for at least another week and the Christmas cards.... Might end up making New years cards again this year instead lolol ! x
Beautiful....yes 21 days to go.....love from me...xxx...

Hugs~
Such a sweet tag! Enjoy the decorating...
I loveeeeeeeee your decorations and your card!!! GORGEOUS! I love love love the vintage image, the stitching and the ribbon!!!!
I have not done any Christmas cards this year. No crafting, no sending. This will be the first year ever that I haven't sent out Christmas cards. It makes me kind of sad but I just haven't had time.
Have fun decorating my friend. I like those snowmen!

I am super slow this year, too. I usually have all my decorating done by Thanksgiving weekend, but this year, I've hardly touched anything. Hate how slooooow I've become...
LOVE your gorgeous vintage tag! That photo is fabulous. Love all the neutrals, too, and the pop of red is just spectacular!
What a gorgeous tag, Linda! Swoon! LOVE the vintage appeal!
Adore that last shot!
Oh Linda this is soooo very beautiful! I love the wonderful vintage image and how you simple you made it...truly looks like it just came out of the old trunk in the attic :) Hope you are having a wonderful week!
Just gorgeous, Linda!
Thanks for the inspiration and all the beautiful things you've shared.
Blessings,
Karen

The cute little snow men are adorable, and hopefully you'll show more of your decorating when you are done. I'm grateful our tree is up, though for how long with a mischievous 2 year old and cat who loves to pluck off every ornament - is another thing!! :-)
Your card, is beautiful, love the vintage appearance, and how crisp your sentiment is.
A fabulous Christmas card and thanks for sharing the photos.
Oh I am loving your beautiful cards the vintage black and white one touched my heart. B
