Today it is officially time for the Christmas season in our house.We really do wait to start buying gifts and putting up the Christmas tree until now so we can enjoy all the goodness of the Thanksgiving holiday. We'll be putting up our tree soon and then it's time to put some Christmas-themed books underneath to fill the space where gifts will be on Christmas Eve.

    I absolutely love how you made the truck rusty and beat up! That is how a truck of this age should look! It makes the scene so much more realistic! TFS!

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
