Hi everyone. I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas. I received some really exciting news last week and wanted to share it with you this evening. I am extremely pleased to announce that I have been chosen to be a Guest Designer for Peachy Keen Stamps during the week of September 19 through September 23. I hope that I will be able to do some Halloween projects. You all know how much I love to make Halloween cards! Also during that week I will be giving away a Peachy Keen Stamp set here on my blog.

Please check out the other guest designer blogs at http://peachykeenstamps.blogspot.com/. They are a wonderfully talented group of designers. You won't want to miss their projects throughout the year.

I would like to thank Peachy Keen Stamps for giving me this great opportunity! I am looking forward to this and hope that you will enjoy all of the other great projects by the PKS Guest Designers.

I can't end this post without a crafting tip. So here it is . . .

My Christmas card to you is a photo of my Christmas decorations above my front door. I purchased the lamp post at Jo-Ann Fabrics last year and decided that it needed something more. Knowing that I was going to sit Minnie Mouse on the bench next to it, I decided to add Mickey to the lamp. I used the Cricut, "Mickey Font" Cartridge to cut the image from vinyl and attached it to the lamp. I also cut the images in a smaller size and added them to the ornaments on the tree.

Have a wonderful Holiday! - Jane, the Polka Dot Gypsy
