Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My post is a bit late, but it's not because I wanted to, but it's due to life changes that I am making right now. So many things that I am trying to undergo leave me very little or no time for crafting. I never new that being a woman and a mother is so much work. Yes, I have been trying this role for sometime now, but really being the woman as God wants me to be requires much more work and takes me away from all the things in life. Because, of all of these changes I had to step down as a DT member at Created With Love Challenges. This is my second to last card for this great blog. The owners are really nice and I hate to step down, but I feel that it's the best at this time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now, going back to the challenge. This time around we are sponsored by <a href="http://stitchybearstamps.com/shop/">Sticky Bear </a>stamps and the theme is <a href="http://createdwithlovechallenges.blogspot.com/2014/02/cwlc-75-baby.html">Baby</a>. I used their image - Playtime and created this card.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Happy New Year!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I can't believe the 2014 is here already. WOW!!! Time flies when you are having fun. 2013 was a lot of fun for me, so I hope that I continue this trend in the upcoming year. I have not made any new year's resolutions, I just could not concentrate on just one. )))) So many things that I want to change in my life, but I know if I choose too many none will get done. I'll have to think and pick wisely. Loosing weight is an ongoing thing since last year, so I'm skipping that one. Perhaps, I'll pick being more organized?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of the changed from last year, is that I joined Creative Knockouts and it was a very pleasant and positive change for me. Today, we have a new challenge over at <a href="http://creativeknockouts.blogspot.com/2014/01/18-all-that-glitters-lacy-sunshine.html">Creative Knockouts </a>- all that glitters and we are sponsored by <a href="http://lacysunshine.weebly.com/">Lacy Sunshine</a>.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I chose the image called Christmas Boo. I applied some glitter on her hat. My daughter loved this darling image, I think it's a very cute one!</div>

Hi everyone,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's Monday and I'm going to share with you a card I created for <a href="http://createdwithlovechallenges.blogspot.com/2013/12/cwlc-70-anything-goes.html">Created With Love Challenges</a>. This week our challenge is Anything Goes and we are sponsored by <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/">Bugaboo Stamps</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I created this card with my lovely homeland in mind. You may have heard about all of the protests going on in Ukraine right now. I used an angel on my card, because I want it to guard all of the people that are currently protesting in Kiev. I wish they will have a peaceful and Merry Christmas.</div>

Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't believe the weekend passed by so quickly. I had a very nice and busy Thanksgiving weekend. A lot of things happened over the weekend, but I still did not do everything I planned. Probably planned too much. )))</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today at Created With Love Challenges we have a new challenge - Christmas. WOW! It's December already, so we are getting closer and closer to one of the favorite Holidays for my kids - Christmas. They are especially excited about getting presents from St. Nicolas. He is supposed to visit our house at the end of the week, but I think this time around He will work using Ukrainian calendar, sometime on the 19th.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This time around we are sponsored by Delicious Doodles and I have chosen their Jolly Holly Post Box image. Perfect box for the letters to St. Nicolas that my kids wrote over the weekend.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

This week at <a href="http://createdwithlovechallenges.blogspot.com/2013/11/cwlc-68-sympathy-or-miss-you.html">Creative with Love Challenges</a> we have a very nice challenge - Sympathy or Miss You! There are people in everyone's life that we have not seen for a while or that might need a word of encouragement. This week we are sponsored by <a href="http://www.brokenboxstock.com/">Broken Box Designs</a>. I chose their image called Feeding Butterflies. I think that when you are having fun with butterflies there is always someone that comes to your mind that you have not seen for a while. I know, I would think of someone.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It got so cold outside. Brrrr... On Saturday, me and my family had a lot of fun at the farm. We went apple picking. It was the last weekend of the year that we could go to our favorite orchard to gather some apples. However, it got cold now. We are getting close to the winter.</div>

Here is what I have created this week for the Halloween Hop. Using the great image from Bugaboo I created this treat bag. I wasn't sure what to create this time around, but having a holiday in mind I thought that my little one would need some kind of a bag to carry with her, when she goes to collect candy. So, the treat bag was born! My daughter approved, and it's more than I can ask for.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hi everyone,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had a very tiring weekend. My grandmother is in the hospital, actually they moved her to the hospice and we are just waiting for that day when she will leave us. She is very strong and clings to life, but it's hard for her now. Me and kids visited her. She was happy, but could not talk or really kiss my little ones. Sad, but such is life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now getting back to business. This week at <a href="http://createdwithlovechallenges.blogspot.com/2013/10/cwlc-61-any-holiday.html">Created With Love Challenges </a>we have a very nice one - Any Holiday. So, if you have created a card for any of the Holidays happening either now or in the future, please link your card and join us for the fun. I have created a card using image from Saturated Canary.</div>

Hi everyone!<br />
<br />
Before I proceed with showing you the new card, I have remembered that I did not drew the winners for the candy from two weeks ago when we ran our Creative Knockouts debut Blog-Hop.<br />
<br />
24 people commented on that post, and I had two prizes to give. The first one was $25 gift certificate from Stamp and Create store, and the winner is:<br />

Hi everyone,<br />
<br />
Today I would like to share with you a little note card I created for our challenge at Created With Love Challenges. This week the theme is Fall Colors. Yes, it's already fall outside and even thou the leaves have not started changing colors just yet, the nights are turning cold and temperature is dropping. Soon, the winter will be here. But, back to the Fall.<br />
Our sponsor is Gingerloft and I used their Acorn House image. I think it's so cute, for little working ants.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vuBhifQj3ws/Uj2xkIQ3e0I/AAAAAAAACrs/d5DsWUgezqM/s1600/photo+(49).JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vuBhifQj3ws/Uj2xkIQ3e0I/AAAAAAAACrs/d5DsWUgezqM/s400/photo+(49).JPG" width="342" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used Prismacolor Pencils to color the image and butterfly die cut from Cheery Lynn and the spellbinders circle. I think that two leaf buttons fit here perfectly. I did not use any sentiment, because, I decided that you can make it whatever you like - a note to the teacher, a Thank You note or just a note on a new house )))) House is a house, no matter how small.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Have a wonderful day!</div>
