I was just thinking to myself the other day, that in 6 shorts weeks I'll be headed up to New York. Yes...it's that time of the year again, time to enjoy 2 1/2 weeks of playing in the snow, building fires in the fireplace, enjoying a white Christmas, (god willing), ringing the Chautauqua Bell on midnight New's Year Eve, skiing down a mountain, taking longs walks in the snow while pulling my little guy on his sled and sipping hot-chocolate while watching snow gently fall to the ground and I suddenly found myself grinning from ear-to-ear. I simply cannot wait! I also need some time away for myself. These last few years have been extremely trying for me and my marriage. I really feel that there is no more love, except the love we share for our children, and I need to know that what I'm about to do is the right thing. I'm thinking of divorcing my husband. I don't talk about it much, as I'm a pretty private person, but sometimes I do let the words flow. Anyway...I'll have a lot of time to think and time to get my nerve up in order to do what I know in my heart is right thing to do.
Today, here in Florida, it never made it to 70 degrees, giving me a little reminder that Summer is in the past and Winter is not too far away, and I love that....I REALLY love that! :)
This is what I cannot wait for...

But since I do need to hold out, and concentrate on things that need to be done around here for the time being...work, clean, more work, projects, cards, more work, layouts, Connor's party, Thanksgiving, more work, etc....I have some projects to show you. ;)
"Ribbon Candy" is the newest card kit from Cupcard's {to go} and boy does it ever deliver for Christmas. :) This kit is so packed full of Christmas delights, you'll want to turn up the Christmas music while working on this one. Would you like to see the gallery? The gallery that is jam-packed with Christmas cards, gift tags, gift bags...everything you need for one holiday??? hmmm??? Then just click right here, and you can see it all. The most fun was seeing my good friend Roree Rumph, who I've worked with before on previous teams, be this month's guest designer. She is at the top of her game folks....seriously, you'll want to check out her blog. I just love her style. ;)
So...here are my cards for the month and I hope you enjoy! ;)







here are a few close-ups of some of my favorites...




Have a wonderful week everyone, and be sure to check back soon...I'll have a Thanksgiving project or two, posted soon!
