Ellen Hutson, LLC is celebrating 11 years! Hooray!! I'm honored to have received an invitation!
We were asked to use our FAVORITE Essentials by Ellen set - now you know I have MANY, right? It was actually pretty simple for me, as I've used my favorite SO many times, in SO many fun ways... take a look back with me:
Drummers Drumming:
Ladies Dancing, Lords leaping:
Geese laying:
French Hens SO MANY times!!
This one, inspired by a Crate & Barrel kitchen towel is my absolute FAVORITE!
Calling birds:
... along with Turtle doves, and that pear-bearing Partridge, too:
If you haven't guessed my favorite yet: Twelve Days!
Inside: ... on, or off the dancefloor!
[wish you could see how perfect their timing is!]
Now, could we celebrate without a little bubbly? I have a NEW favorite for this Christmas-card-making season: Modern Christmas ... I do love to have my way with Julie's fun sets:
Happiest anniversary, Ellen!!!
with love, to you ... and everyone who
is a part of your fabulous team!
Now, off you go to the wonderful Chari Moss' place where the party continues... thanks for stopping by!

A few other party-players:
Oh my goodness. I love your funny cards today! Love the French hen!
ReplyDeleteThese are fabulous! I think my favorite is the "chicken...egg..." one - too cute!
ReplyDeleteYou truly are an ambassador of EH products, my friend! Your 12 Days showcases are sheer delights; so enjoyed seeing second - or in some cases, fifth, helpings! The dancing shoes have sparked a sudden desire to two-step around my kitchen island; love it! And your bubbly version of Modern Christmas...what else can I say but: toasting and cheering your ingenuity! Awesome-ness!!
ReplyDeleteHugs~c
LOVE your creative humor, EVERY single TIME!
ReplyDeleteYou do a great job with white space. My favorite kind of card. Great job!

ReplyDeleteMonkey clapping all over my craft area...this was such a joy to scroll through. You have, most definitely, used all this set's cuteness to the hilt. The "dancing" shoes had me hugging myself...I was totally in awe. Then topping it off with the champagne made this visit perfect.
