Merry Christmas to all my readers

I wish you a Merry Christmas ; I found a message that I like a lot :

May your home be filled with Christmas joy,
days of happiness and love.
May each year bring to you and yours
new blessings from above.
May family and friends who gather there
fill the rooms with laughter and cheer
creating memories that grow more treasured
with every passing year.

All my bears for 2009 are done and completed ; I started a new one who will open the New Year.... just a few days and he will be ready. The teddy bear will be a baby girl bear, dressed......

First snow in my area

Yes, winter arrived today ; we received 15-20 cms of snow, great for the outside Christmas lights, but... snow is snow...my husband took pictures of a blue jay ; poor him...

I made a scrapbook with a few of his pictures.

Look :

The world of Lily

Lily will reach her sweet Mom tomorrow and before I would like to share a scrap I did for the little one.

Plume, the Candies Thief

Today my husband took funny pictures of my cat stealing candies I received in a parcel from Belgium.

She had after that a such innocent face...

New scrapbookings

Today I started a painting, guess what : a teddy bear.

Also I made 3 scrapbooks with all freebies I found on the web.

The picture I used for them, is one I took at the playground when Lola was here ; Darren tried to open a stable door ; I was very far so I took it ; but when I loaded the pictures on my laptop, I was surprised to see the result.

For the following one ; every day a squirrel came on the deck and my husband tried to feed him ; the only thing he accepted was the homemade bread !!!

Winner of the 2008 Threadteds Challenge and Digital Scrap Booking

I made a scrap booking with the pictures I took today of Leslie, winner of Jury choice in the Threadteds Challenge.

Both will be displayed in their globe.

I can not make teddies for the moment because I have to go to Quebec for receiving a treatment for my eye ; I have an appointment for Tuesday, August 12th ; I'm very scared to go there ; I had so upsetting news here in New Brunswick since they are treating me.
