{Freebie} Do Not Open Until Christmas Printable

Well I do believe I'm ready for Christmas!

Having a 4 year old with no concept of time is so challenging!

He's wanted to open presents ever since they showed up under the tree!

So I made a fun sign to share today!

Just something fun!

Right click, save and print!

Enjoy!

Merry Christmas Eve!

Easy Frame Makeover

Can you believe that it might be about 10 years that I've had this snowman Christmas poster? And that I'm just now framing it!!?  In my defense it is not a common size!....11x17 to be exact.  ( I say not common because I found the frame under the 'miscellaneous sizes' section at Hobby Lobby.com!) I never could decide what kind of frame I wanted or if I wanted to try and do a crafty type frame. So a quick frame it was.  And then maybe next year I'd paint it.  Well then I had a thought! (I know a little dangerous!☺)

Glitter tape!

Thanks Target $1 Spot!!

Before......

and after in about 5 minutes!!...

So easy!

Now....I need to see what else needs a little sparkle!

Happy Thursday lovelies!!

{Freebie} Christmas Recipe Cards

I know I just made some freebie Christmas lock screens last week but thought I'd make some fun Christmas recipe cards too!! I'm going to my first ever Cookie Exchange on Saturday and am thinking I'll bring my cookie recipe on a card to share with my bunco babes! So I gotta share with my lovelies too!! Can you guess which one I'll be using? ;)

(Oops!! I did these late last night and added the bow and thought I saved over the one without the bow! So take your pick! Ha!)

Just right click and save!

Enjoy!!

{Freebie} Christmas Lockscreens

Yes I have been at it again.  I've changed my phone 'theme' to Christmas! I must say it's really fun to change it up! Once I figured out that it's easy to do in PicMonkey there was no need to search for themes in the Play Store or even to buy one! And there's a nifty app called CocoPPa that you use to fancy up your icons. It's free so with it and PicMonkey I can be my own theme maker!

Here's my home screen so you can get an idea of what CocoPPa does....

Fun huh? I actually am kinda diggin' the pink deer lock screen I made to share with you but it does take a little bit of time to sit and change your icons! And I'd have to have pink icons so.......

On to the freebies!!

I've made the four featured above plus I'll share my Merry & Bright one too!  Just right click and save and email it to yourself and then save to your phone.  Or if you're on your phone just long press and save!

And these are for Android-Samsung S3 but I'd be happy to make you the size you need! Just leave me a comment below!

Enjoy!!

Happy Thursday!

Soiree Day-North Pole Breakfast with Buddy

And we are in full Christmas mode at our house! Just finished putting out the rest of the decor.  

Our Elf on the Shelf, Buddy showed up this morning with breakfast! 

Nothing fancy at all, just pure fun!

I quickly snapped a ton of pictures before we ate and then made a Flipagram.  It just recently became available for Android so I'm still new to it that's why some of the pics are not centered and the lighting was horrible as it was overcast and extremely foggy this morning! None the less, it still turned out fun!

Do you have an Elf?

Lil' Hunkie loves it!!

Happy Tuesday!
