Cut It Up New Years Resolutions Challenge

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

I sure did. We had a lovely gathering at my eldest daughters house!
Lots of yummy food, fun games. good times :)

Now it's time to think about the new year ahead,
Do you have any New Years resolutions?

I have a few. Some of them involve my health and some of them involve crafting :)

Our challenge this week is New Years Resolutions. Create a project to include New Years Resolutions and don't forget the die cut!


The sponsor for this weeks challenge is Kitten Scraps and you have a chance to win a $20 certificate to their store.





One of my New Years resolutions is to get healthier. I am terrible about drinking water and I want to get better about it. I decided to up-cycle a water bottle to encourage me to drink more water.
I used a cut file from Silhouette Studio and a font to create a vinyl saying for my water bottle.





I cut some colored vinyl rectangles that I placed behind the time reminders.





Supplies Used: vinyl in white, blue, pink, green, yellow, purple; Silhouette Studio cut file; Abalone font; water bottle from Michaels

I can't wait to see your creation so pop on over to the Cut It Up blog and join us in the fun!

I've been baking like crazy the last couple of days!

In my house, it's beginning to SMELL a lot like Christmas.

I've made fudge, mound balls, snowballs, and dipped gingersnaps. A couple more things to make and my Christmas baking will be done :)

Now, if I could just get my wrapping done.

Since it is Tuesday, we have a new challenge for you over at DCD's.
