I know I have been pretty absent lately….and for that I apologize. During any other year, this time of the year is crazy. Nuts. Insane. But this year times that by a few! Between my awesome hubby receiving a promotion in the Air Force, family visiting, a very successful crafters show, and getting ready for and helping out with my brother-in-laws wedding next week……I am crazy busy. So busy I think they need to come up with a new term for it. Busy just doesn’t cut it right now.

Throughout all the craziness I have been of course crafting. Like I said, I participated in a local Makers Fair this year and it was my best show to date. Being surrounded by a show solely of handmade items is inspiring and exciting! Add to it all the things I’ve been making for the upcoming wedding and my craft room has been getting a workout. Knowing that we will be out of town for Thanksgiving/the Wedding I decided to get my house decorated for Christmas NOW so we can come home to Christmas ready home when we return.

Once I pulled out all my Christmas stuff and started setting up I realized some things needed to go and there was a need for some new items. This is our first year decorating in our new home and it seems like every house we’ve lived in requires a shuffle of holiday decor.

A few weeks ago I designed  this Reindeer Subway Art in my Silhouette software. I finally got around to actually making the sign using THIS technique.

I absolutely LOVE it. It goes perfectly with my new Christmas color pallet…..can you tell what it is???? Now sit tight because more projects are coming soon! I promise!

Linking up to these great link parties!!!
