Sorry, the blog is a little late today. Gym girl got pulled over.....gggggrrrr! It's my fault. I was speeding. But, still! I could have lived without that!
On Monday, I asked any of you who wanted to share your amazing projects with us to send them to me. ([email protected]) Well, you do not disappoint! Thank you for all the amazing talent you shared. Keep them coming. I have a lot of amazing stuff to show, so don't get discouraged if yours is still in my inbox. I will get it on the idea gallery at www.cosmocricket.com as fast as my little mouse will click them there!
For now, here are some great projects that I received this week. First, this Early Bird Layout from Lisa Hidy. Check out more from her on her blog http://createdbylisa.blogspot.com
Next, an amazing advent calendar (One of my favorite holiday memories from my childhood. Only this one is kicked up a notch from the premade ones my mom bought at the grocery store!) from Linda Cummings. Linda doesn't have a blog yet, but she's had some gentle coaxing in that direction. With talent like hers, I'm sure we'll see more from her!
Here's a great card from Kristine Davidson. You can find her on her blog kristinedavidson.blogspot.com
Finally, this is such a creative and fun idea. I think I may have to try it with my five year old this weekend! This comes your way from Holly Hanks www.hollyscharmedlife.blogspot.com You can get all the instructions at http://wendyrago.typepad.com/bad_girls/2009/11/a-home-for-the-holidays.html
As for yesterday's giveaway, I'm afraid the winner is going to have to wait to be announced. Kristen is out of the office today. She's the one smart enough to work the random number generator. Hopefully she will be here tomorrow. Have no fear, gym girl will follow through! Thank you all for sharing your charities info. No matter how stressful our lives get (rotten speeding ticket!), it's always great to have a little dose of perspective. We all have it pretty good, right?
