my husband, the caroler and the alpine giveaway winner.

I'm starting to sound like a broken record, but before I begin, I just want you all to know how much it means to me that you like alpine carolers!  I have been blushing for a few days straight now.

When I wrote up my stampede post, I mentioned that I would show you how to customize the kids. I have 3 kids, and wanted it to look like that. You'll see a few projects where I did just that in the coming week.  So anyways, I was reading through the comments when I got to one that made me go: oh crap.


Wait a minute, Karen. You thought I meant I would turn a caroler into Amar? whoops. I hadn't thought of doing that, but....

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED.

I must warn you that what follows is extreme ridiculousness.

haha.  Who knew that it would be as easy as wiping the ink off the top of the head, and scribbling in a beard?

I cleaned off the ink right above the ears, stamped in the glasses and carefully drew in the scalp and beard. No sweat, and it kept me giggling for an entire hour straight.

I added some mistletoe up top, from the new set Peace on Earth, and created my own greeting to fit within the Bloomsies banner.

I kind of love it.

Now, onto the giveaway winner! Random.org picked this comment:


Yay, Yainea! I will send out your set very soon!

In case you don't know what my hubby looks like, here's who I want to be smooching under the mistletoe come Christmas:
