Christmas Candle....

BRrrrrrrr -8 here today!!

Finally found some time to finish off the candle I started the other day...using my gorgeous Sugar Nellie stamp.  It does have a lovely Noel stamped on the back but the bloomin' batteries went on the camera and could I find any new ones!! Better stock up on them before Santa comes with all the pressies that require them!

Hope you are all keeping warm!

Simply Sassy Competition......

OOoooo check out the competition over on the Sugar Nellie Blog!! What an amazing prize!!!!

You have make a white on white card focusing on the colouring of these beautiful Sassy girl stamps....I love them all!! I only have the first set...but I am hoping that Santa will leave me some more under the tree!

BBRRRRRRRRR.........................

Well we have a distinct lack of snow here in Fort William....It's not even worth taking the measuring tape out  the drawer!...but I have still decided to play along over at Kath's place....she is running a little competition to see who has the most snow.....now I hear you all saying that I have no chance...but I am hoping Kath will feel sorry for this poor little soul below.......

She stayed out too late last night playing and now she is frozen solid!

We have what looks like wet slushy snow, but it is sooooo cold here it has frozen solid and it's pretty treacherous....there are a few schools closed because the buses are only getting through on the main roads! Not the girls school though much to their dismay...it's only a 5 min walk away!

It's up!!

Tis done!!...the girls have done a grand job of decorating the tree this afternoon....it feels lovely and cosy in the living room now!

My only problem now is the tree blocks my view of the telly when I am in my cupboard!!

Enjoy your Saturday night !

See that little bare patch...the tiny little one!! Thats where we are!!!! The girls got so excited yesterday when it started to snow...but this morning it has all but gone!

So to compensate for no sledging or snowballing we are going to put the Christmas tree up this afternoon!

Will be back later!

Snow?.......

Well everyone seems to be sharing their snowy pics....so here is my disappointing contribution!..... it is about -8 if that is any consolation for all you folks snowed in...at least you get to stay in the warm, we have no excuse to stay in!lol! The forecasters are saying that there is snow due here tomorrow so here's hoping!! The girls are desperate to get out sledging!

Keep warm everyone!

WOYWW.......

Told you it would be tidied up!! I did it that same night....couldn't stand it any longer!

All that is here now are the candles that I am decorating for the teacher pressies....and some little cardboard tubes that are drying..........you will have to wait to see what I do with those!  Stay tuned!

Get over to Julias and have a nose round some fab workspaces!

We are still waiting for some snow here in Fort William....there seems to be a bubble over us and we are getting none...which the girls are totally gutted about! We were in Glasgow at the weekend visiting relatives and it took us nearly 8 hours to get home...normally only takes 2 to 3 hours! we were driving down some pretty dodgy roads to try and get home as the two main roads were closed, then as soon as we got to Glencoe the snow disappeared!

Stay safe and warm wherever you are!
