December Checkpoint

I've been thinkering and tinkering (and perhaps reading too much Seuss) and I redesigned the blog a bit. What do you think? It feels so *bam* in your face big to me, but I think before it was a little to subtle. I tend to overthink these things...

In the elf update category, CC made me some coffee on Friday. An elf after my own heart. I guess they do have Starbucks at the North Pole, complete with little itty-bitty elf sized cups!

Monday is the last week of school before break. I'm guessing most of us are on the same schedule, so I thought this would be a great time to make sure you've seen and downloaded all the freebies from December. Just click on the pic to download if you see something you'd like:







I've also got some fun stuff for sale in my TpT store if you care to take a peek.

Whew! That was a lot of linking! Hope you enjoy, my friends. I'm off to shop for my Secret Santa gifts.  Have a great weekend!

  4. Hi Denise:
    I LOVE the new look. It's so sunny and cheerful.
    And the itsy-bitsy Starbucks cup is A-DOR-ABLE. (Glad to know I can enjoy my beverages with an elf!)

    I have next-to-no knowledge of how to post and link pictures on my blog. Would it be okay if I e-mailed you and asked you a question or two? Your pictures always look so orderly... and perfect. I just want mine to SHOW UP! (My links are just freebies--I don't have a TpT store). Or, is there a reference you can recommend?

    Happy Holidays! Thanks for the CHEER!

  10. Hi Denise,

    I downloaded your gingerbread man bump game and my kiddos loved it! I used it as a pattern to create a winter bump game so we could continue with it thru Jan. Would you mind if I shared it as a freebie on my blog? I won't unless you give permission since I used your idea as my example. Just let me know!
