Thank you, each and every one of you, who have supported me and encouraged me as I made my way through this project. You have no idea what it has meant to me.

and now?

I'm going to kick back, put up my feet and raise my glass to myself (at least until tomorrow).

Yes I am.

Take that project365. You brought it and I kicked your ass.

*ahem

(turn up your volume .. I love this song)

HAPPY NEW YEAR! May 2011 bring you love and laughter and your every heart's desire.

xoxo

But?

one more day to go! wooooot!

The Mortal Muses' prompt for today is 'sparkling' and by now I've missed the posting deadline looking for something sparkly in this house that I haven't yet taken a picture of. heh.

(spell check says sparkly isn't a word. what's up with that?)

I hooked up a new monitor tonight, and everything looks pink here. Is this pink? Really, I have no idea anymore.

It's past my bedtime ...

Still playing along with the Mortal Muses, although Christmas seems long past.

(am I the only one who feels like it was weeks ago? yes? hmmm)

The word prompt for today is 'stories'.

My daughter is hooked on the series from Lauren Conrad, of 'The Hills' fame.

Whatever - at least she's reading ;)

'Sugar and Spice' found in her Christmas stocking. Yay Santa.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting a little tired of holiday photos.

Yeah, I said it :)

But this? This is my new little Brownie. I picked it up a few weeks ago from a really great lady who is selling off her collection. And what a collection she has! I told her she's nuts to be getting rid of them.

and as soon as I'm a little caught up from the holidays? I'll be paying her a little visit. Count on it.

Anyways ... today's prompt from the Mortal Muses is "shiny".

Meet my shiny new Brownie :)

My stocking says so ;)

Getting this in, just under the wire, for the Mortal Muses word prompt 'stocking'.

and now I'm off to actually fill some of these.

Sweet dreams! ... visions of sugarplums and all that stuff.

let it snow!

Actually, we have enough now, thanks very much.

Today's prompt from the Mortal Muses is 'snowflake'. When I was young, I'd spend hours cutting these out and I'll admit it, I had fun doing these today. A little trip down memory lane :)

A few textures used here, from Skeletal Mess. Thanks Jerry! And those cute, cute, CUTE clothespins are from Gina at The Shabby Chic Cottage. She has a lot of cute things in her Etsy shop. Go have a browse.

So tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I'm the dufus this year who still isn't finished shopping. Yep.

Crazy.

If you don't see me back here tomorrow, you'll know what happened.

(Yankee Candle people? Can you lower your prices a wee bit please? Y'all are killing me over here)

I also have a weakness for lanterns. Any type, any colour. It's a problem.

But ties in nicely with the other, doesn't it?

Processed in lightroom. Gorgeous texture courtesy of the fabulous Isabelle Lafrance. Thanks Isabelle!

The word prompt for today from the Mortal Muses is, you guessed it - candle ;)

Up next? Snowflakes!!!

No shortage of those around here ;)
