Guest Designer Spot

Morning peeps!  I caught their eye at Top Tip Tuesday and was asked if I would like to be their Guest Designer for this coming fortnight ... would I ... of course I would!  What an honour.

with the theme being Sparkles Galore

I was lucky enough to be allowed to choose a digi image from Stamp Fairy.  It took me ages to browse around the Stamp Fairy shop as there are so many wonderful digis and it was really, really hard to make a decision but in the end I chose Molly Balloons 4, isn't she really cute.

Hi! What a lovely day, sunny and DRY!  Mr C is away to golf and I'm playing in the craft room.  I've got a croaky throat so I'm just having a 'me' day.  I've finished the two cards I'm making at the next class and thought I'd have a go at a CAS one.  Hope you like!

Hugs

Christmas 2012

Morning!  The television was so rubbish last night that I popped upstairs to the craft room and did some creating.  There are still a lot of Christmas challenges on the go so here's the first one for this year!  Pink Petticoat have a sale on just now so a few things fell into my cart.  I was itching to use them so this was a perfect 'excuse'.  Today I'm going to get the house back to normal and the Christmas decorations packed away for another year.  It seems to have gone very quickly this year but I have to say, a good time was had by all.  Hugs x

Christmas Sparkles

Before I go any further with this post I want to say sorry for the rotten photo.  I hate having to take photos in artificial light as I never seem to get them clean and sharp and there never seems to be enough daylight just now anyway.  Been in Livingston today with my daughter who was doing her Christmas shopping as she's on holiday.  She was very lucky as she got nearly everything she wanted - and didn't pay the full price for anything!!!  

It's got quite cold here tonight and the wind is blowing a hoolie.  Once I've done this I'm cooking tea, getting the wood burner going, tv on, knitting out and feet up!  Poor Mr C, he's working!  Hugs x
