My heart is broken.

St. Michael the archangel defend us in battle.

Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,

And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,

By the power of God,

Cast into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits,

Who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Hope you are having fun decorating for the holidays! I just got my tree up last night. I like a real tree but my hubby doesn't. So we bought a pre-lit tree a couple of years ago and now the lights wont light. So we had to buy lights and restring it! Ah well! such is life!

ha! Ha!

I'm working on some dolls as well. One is for Prims magazine. I have to have her sent out on Friday, and my hubs in on vacation all this week, yikes! I will post a few teaser pics later this week!

Merry Christmas!

Framed!

I actually finished this piece some time ago, 

but I just now got around to framing it.

 I framed it myself with a frame I bought at Hobby Lobby. 

It is pinned into foam core all around the edges and laced in the back. 

The whole project cost me $12.00:

 $10.00 for the frame and $2.00 for the foam core.

Yay! Another piece framed and finished!

My completed ornament

I ended up changing out the Antique Rose for Manor Red(crescent colors) and I used Desert Mesquite for the border instead of Evergreen.

I trimmed it with ruched ribbon.

What do you think?
