Hey....I said GUESS....don't just go ahead and look before you make your guess...sheesh, how hard is it to play along?? huh? 



*wink*



Just got my copy--lots of yummy sounding recipes --of course!  But then there are also lots of cute decorating ideas and crafty projects too.

Here's a shot of the handmade reindeer project that I submitted:



It's always fun to see your stuff in print!

Oh my...went to the church annual Beef Dinner this afternoon....I am stuffed! LOL I have to say, they sure do it up good! I think it's gonna be Cheerios for supper tonight, there's no room for anything bigger :o)

Been trying to work on some new Christmas items this week, but am falling behind in the picture taking department. I'll have to see if I can get to it tomorrow. I did some little red and green mice, but sold them all already and ran out of red paper. I substituted the red paper for a cute white with red polka dots, but don't have the pictures taken yet! Arghh! I even took a trip to Michael's for red paper and couldn't find anything appropriate, can you believe that?

AND now, as promised...to share with you another one of my Etsy Teams---the EtsyTwitter team!!  A talented group with varied styles who have banded together to help each other with promotion via Twitter.  I was really struck by the plethora of talented needleworkers (knitting and crochet) that this group has!  If you are looking for a unique and quality gift for yourself or someone else--this is a great place to start!

Etsy Teams

I belong to a few different Etsy teams, such a good way to meet crafty people that you have things in common  with, make new friends,  and to network with.  Each team has it's good points and I am very happy with each and every one of them and proud to be a member of the teams.   I'm going to share 2 of the teams with you today...I'll write up the other ones at a later date!  I'm starting with these because I just happened to have made treasuries featuring these 2 recently!  lol  The teams are:

♥♥♥ Etsy Cottage Style -- which you know I love--all the shabby, colorful, sweet, pink, etc.....be still my heart!  These are the best cottage style artists on Etsy and if you love that style, you should go to Etsy and search CSSTeam and see what they have to offer!  Here's a treasury that I made with items from the CSSTeam
