Great day had by all!!

A lovely day was had by all and the girls were delighted with all their pressies!! Lucy thought it was a good idea to wake up at 4!!...we sent her back to bed and then she got up again at 5!..she did eventually fall back to sleep then we had to wake her just after 8 when Jude woke up! All those pressies and they took no time at all to rip them all open!

Jude with the Barbie doll that was top of her list!!

Lucy with her Etch a Sketch.....which I never had the patience for when I was a kid!

MY PRESSIE!!!! my lovely hubby got me the Big Shot and my sis got me all the Stamping Bella stuff....she lives not far from Simply Create in Alford...the most gorgeous shop ever!

Hope you are all having a lovely time....no cards from me yet cos the door to my cubby is blocked by all the girls pressies!!

A Very Merry Christmas!!

I would like to wish all my followers and visitors a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

It has been great starting up this blog and meeting everyone and joining in all the fab challenges that are out there, you are all lovely!

Thats it no more!!! And Passion for Promarkers!

Firstly I apologise for the pics, I have only just finished some of them and had to take the pictures in my cubby cos that was the brightest place!

These are the Christmas Baubles I made for Jude to give her 2 teachers and her 2 classroom assistants.....and my first attempt at a candle which I made for Lucy to give her teacher! It looks better in real life...a bit pale in the pic! I am really pleased with how it came out....and it was so easy! I am entering these in the Passion for Promarkers Mega Christmas Challenge which is anything but a card with a Christmas or New Year theme!








My cupboard doors are definately closed now!

Thanks for all the lovely comments on my previous post...it is a lovely place to live although pretty cold tonight...the forecast is for -14 tonight!! On the way to school the girls found some strange tracks in the snow which I later found out on my way to work was from a little deer that had wandered down to the crescent and was wandering further along amongst the trees beside the bridge!

Yeah!.....SNOW!!!!!!!

Well the girls were delighted this morning when they woke up to this! It has been a few years since we have had a good snowfall like this!

This is the view from the bridge behind our house...that's our wee house circled on the right.

Jude on her sledge

Lucy ...not wanting to have her pic taken!

Judes snow angel

As I am typing this it has just started to snow again...big fat flakes......the girls are crossing their fingers that school will be closed tomorrow!lol

Lots of pics

These are some of my card orders that I finished at the weekend!(there were more but I didn't get a chance to get pics!) I am not going to waffle too much about them cos there are loads...you do not want to see the state of my cubby now!lol I have shut the door to it and I am not going back in til after Christmas!!

We have had a wee bit of snow here today..so the girls are getting very excited...it has been a few years since we have had a white Christmas here!

Thanks for stopping by!

So Sorry

Guys I am so sorry I am such a bad blogger of late...there is just not enough hours in the day just now! I have been making some cards and I will get them posted up soon...I am also going to be having a go at decorating some candles for the girls teacher pressies...if they work out I will post some pics! Must dash now pressies to wrap and cards to write...I have actually relented and bought a box of cards .....WHAT I hear you all cry how could you!!!...I just haven't got enough made and I have decided not to get stressed about trying to get more made in the little time I have left....please forgive me...I promise I will start in March for next years ones!lol!

Not enough hours in the day!!

Dear me, I have so many orders for special Christmas cards just now I am struggling to find the time(these are just a few)! But I am shutting my cupboard next week and I am not taking any more orders as its gonna get hectic with school concerts and work night outs!! But I am not complaining I love this time of year!!

Thanks for popping by!
