I had some alone time today...that hasn't happened for a LONG time, and so I took advantage and created a few tags for Christmas. I cranked up Pandora and listened to a bunch of boy bands (geeky, yes I know), but totally fun!! I used distress inks, a cute penguin stamp from the dollar bin, along with the snowflake stamps, colored them with my copics and tied with ribbon, (I'm going to change out this ribbon, it doesn't match). I inked the edge and embossed with white powder, I love the way that turned out!
I totally had most of the day to myself. <3 it! Ash is in AZ for a basketball tourney and the husband is in training for his new job!! Hallelujah! I SO needed some time to decompress, to have no one asking me questions or needing something from me. I have totally enjoyed it and now that the husband is working, I think I will have a little more time to myself...( I know that sounds bad...lol) but it is needed.
Here is my cute Ash...all suited up for the game!! She is totally having fun with it and loves the game, and I totally love watching her play!!
The husband is home now and I rented a few movies from redbox, so I think I'll get in my pj's, grab some snacks and snuggle up for some entertainment!
