December Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

Hello bloggie friends! It's snowing outside! It's been snowing since this morning and it doesn't look like it has any plans on stopping any time soon. I was hoping for a white Christmas, but this is insane!  My poor husband has his job cut out for him! I hope you're all safe and cozy in your homes tonight!


I read some terrible news from back home. An infamous son of a senator and his six friends who violently raped and killed a teenager, her mother and her little sister in 1991 was pardoned today!?#%$@!  Their father who was away on business was spared and came home to the horrifying news that his entire family was murdered. Today, he fell on his knees crying and passed out after hearing the news of the pardon. This is such a great injustice!!!! Please pray for the dad that was left behind, and for some justice for him and his family.


Well, I don't know how to continue after that story! But some good news would be great after that. So isn't it just wonderful that it's time for the Papertrey Ink blog hop?! It seems I've missed several blog hops already and I didn't want to miss this one. This month's challenge is to use Christmas left overs. Well, I just happened to save this beautiful white ribbon from a gift I received. It was perfect for this challenge. 

I chose to go the shabby chic way today. I layered on some patterned papers. Used another frame from Tattered Angels. I also used one of my favorite PTI stamp sets! I'm so glad that PTI is starting to make stamp sets for their dies. I'm waiting for the craze of the December release to die down before I order my December want list! Hee! I'm so excited! They came out with such wonderful sets this month! I can't wait for what they're going to come up with next year!!! Anyway, I hope you like this one!!! Thanks for stopping by!
