Back from holiday and have had a nice relaxing long weekend too,I only had to work few hours early on Monday morning...we wont say too much about yesterday as the first full day back at work is never good in my experience...so lets leave it there!I even made made good use of the one wet day we had whilst away last week and got loads of stamps coloured for christmas cards...which has given me a kick start into action and now as you can see its christmas in full production.Sorry... I know to some this is so wrong and I shouldn't be doing anything Christmas related when summer isn't finished yet... but it is nearly September and in my defence some people stared in July!

I made two complete cards over the weekend and dug out all my Christmas stash... had a good rummage and did a load more stamping on Monday. Now the plan is to do get some more colouring completed then hopefully make some cards at the weekend. I'm not working late any day this week so should be able to squeeze a few hours in before the weekend...I hope your are getting your creative fix and have had a good week so far. Off now to have a very quick nosey look around some desks before work.will be back later today  though for  a good look; have a fab week and thanks for dropping in...it is very much appreciated.

Say it With Flowers

Its been a great crafty weekend and christmas card production is in full swing in the craft room,but Iv'e so many cards  that I haven't yet shown; I'm saving the christmas cards I made for another post ...today's is a CAS card using a fab new stamp I got recently in a bundle from eBay sorry; not sure with make it is as there was no packaging with it. I made it to say Hi to a friend who was having a bit of a difficult time I like the bright sunny colours.
I have a bit of a button obsession and some would even say that I love buttons...I have quite a collection of them...you can never have too many or enough!...the yellow spotty one is from the The Ribbons Girls and is a favourite.  

A happy Hello

I'm sure the card  just meets the CAS brief as I do find less is more a bit difficult to apply! Off to work soon so trying to keep it brief.I hope you have a bright and cheerful week and thanks for visiting it is appreciated ...Hugs Andrea x
