What a miserable cold and wet morning outside, although today we
do get an extra hour…yippee and
since I'm up fairly early this morning and hubby is still
asleep I'm going to spend mine blog hopping and visiting my favourite
sites once I've posted this,I can’t think of a better way really of
spending a spare hour. I am well into Christmas card creating this week and on
a roll. I've made three in total and working on two others. I will
post the others once I take some photos, I'm really happy with two of
the three which is progress! I've made a list of friends and family
who I'm going to be making cards for; up until
now I've been making them more for enjoyment and fun rather
than specific people, although I'm sure I will find owners for the
ones I've made so far. These will be my last unplanned Christmas
cards. The digi stamp is from Di’s
Digi’s and called ‘Come on we have a lot to do’ that I won some time ago, it was one of the first
challenges I won and at the time I had no Christmas stash so I planned ahead
and got four Christmas digi's all as cute as this one.
