CHRISTMAS CARTRIDGES....SOUP CAN CHALLENGE

For this weeks challenge, I asked the girls to alter a SOUP CAN.....and since we were still doing one more Christmas project, they were able to use either of the two Christmas Cartridge cuts on their projects; The Joys of The Season and/or Christmas Cheer..........It is so amazing how everyone can take a challenge and really do some different AMAZING things with it....I so love this challenge.....I will be keeping some of those Chicken Soup cans and Frosting mix containers to altered for several other fun gifts throughout the year and I think with what the designers did this week, you to will find many ways to alter your cans.....

I would also like to thank Angie Gaa for being our December Guest Designer, her work was amazing...Thanks Again Angie...

We also have a Guest Designer for the month of December....Her name is Angie Gaa. We are so glad to have Angie join us....Here is a little bit about Angie:

Hi I'm Angie Gaa, and I started scrapping about 3 years ago when I stumbled on a LSS. I never knew hand-made cards and scrapbooking existed before I crossed the Mason-Dixon Line! I have lived in Kentucky
for the past 4 years, and I'm married to a Robin Williams look-alike! In January we will celebrate our 15th Wedding Anniversary. I have a fur-baby...her name is Pumpkin...and you'll frequently find her cat hair on the sticky side of my projects!

Most mornings you can find me Blogging with my cropping buddies, and watching Regis and Kelly. I love spending time with my husband and family. Other hobbies include knitting, TV watching, and shopping for sb supplies!

Blessings
Angie Gaa
