Hi peeps

If you're up when this is posted at 5am you're either mad, an insomniac, in another time zone or getting ready for work.  Me ... I'm asleep!

If you're wondering where my embossing is, look closely at the diecut in the middle and you'll see the little embossed dots.

Christmas on Sunday

Hi!

I'm back again with my self imposed Christmas challenge! Still sitting here in my pjs but I must get a wriggle on, can't be lazy all day ... or can I!  

Dancing on Ice final on tonight.  I'd really like Beth to win but I've a feeling it will be Ray, time will tell.  4 of us have tickets for the show in Glasgow next month and we're all looking forward to it.  It's amazing how fast the dancers move over the ice when you see it in real life ... scary stuff!

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

Hugs

Christmas on Sunday

Hi!

I'm back again with another couple of Christmas cards for my self imposed challenge on a Sunday!  We have decided not to go anywhere today as it's blowing a hoolie and hissing rain.  The house is the best place to be on a day like this although I might just brave it later on as Aldi have baby wool on special offer and I could do with some so will pop down and have a nosey.  Mr C will have to brave it too as he's got his four-legged friend to walk.
Take care!

Hugs

Christmas on Sunday

Hi everyone I'm back!

Before Christmas I was doing my own Christmas post on Sunday so I thought I'd start again and get my box filled up before the December panic sets in.  I know I've loads of time but you can never have too many Christmas cards.

We had a wee while this afternoon when the sun was shining and Mr C managed to get out with the dog but it's back to the same old again.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your Bank Holiday weekend.

See you tomorrow, promise, cos I've got a card all ready and some news!

Christmas on Sunday

Hello!

I hope you are all well and enjoying your Sunday.  Weather here is back to normal ... rain!  I came up to the craftroom just after breakfast and I'm still here.  I just don't know where the time goes when I'm in my crafty bubble but I do have four cards to share with you today.

Mr C has just gone out with the dog and when I'm finished this post I'm going to make something for lunch.  I think I'll sew up some of the little cardis I've been knitting.  I absolutely hate the finishing off and need to be in the right mood to do it but that could well be this afternoon!

See you all tomorrow.
Hugs

Christmas on Sunday

Hello there peeps!

Thanks for all the get well wishes.  I feel much better today.  I've got rid of my sore head and eyes and am just a bit stuffed up now.  The cough is still there but not nearly so bad ... maybe I've escaped the lurgy!  Fingers and everything else crossed.

Mr C decreed that it was to be a lazy Sunday and as it's hissing down outside I agreed with him so promptly climbed the stairs to the craftroom!  I've made three cards I'm about to share with you and they're all for the Christmas box.

Off now to make something to eat, late lunch or early dinner!  It's a take it as it comes day then I'm coming back to play as I've still loads of cards to make for the school fete so it's going to have to be a production line I think!  Endeavour is on at 8pm so I'll be back downstairs for that.

Enjoy the rest of the day.

Hugs

Happy Sunday!

I've just noticed, only another 50 posts and I've reached 1000!  I've got this post scheduled as I'm meeting my granddaughter for lunch today.  I asked her if she wanted to meet on Monday but she told me she's busy as it's the last day of the Easter holiday!  I don't remember having such a hectic social life when I was 15!

I've three cards to share with you today, part of the 9 I made yesterday!  

Enjoy your Sunday.
