Short n' Sweet

This post will be Short n' Sweet (Just like me...NOT!...well...short maybe!)

My OH's secretary quit her job just before Christmas and he felt this fabby image by my ol' pal Mozzer (Marlene Shaw) would fit the bill.

 I'm off... x

Morning Campers!

Apologies for the lack of card postings of late, lots going on at 'chez nous'!

I have, at last, got an official 'craft-station' to work at instead of the end of the sofa. My OH has bought a new desk for the computer so the old one has snuck its way in to the living-room & been adorned with all my stash that has previously lived on the floor (photos to follow - I'm so excited)

I did have a go at making a card last night, then found I'd bled all over the back of it following an attack by a can of baked beans earlier in the evening. I didn't realise there was blood all over my hand & jumper too...it was carnage.

Anyway here's a card I made before Christmas for your delight n' delectation.

Have a groovy weekend!

Back To School...Boo!

Boo! Hiss!

Kids are back to school tomorrow.

Doesn't seem 5 mins since they packed up for the Christmas hols, the decorations went up and our balding Christmas tree saw daylight again.

Back to normality now...if 'normal' ever exists in our crazy house. The decorations, fairy-lights and even balder tree are safely stashed back in the loft, kids hosed down clean ready for school and bags packed.

The house will be quiet again...Boo! Hiss!

Happy New Year Everyone!

Oh boy have I missed you...yes...you too!!

I just love the build up to Christmas & the day itself...but once it's over I always feel a bit deflated & want to pack away the cards n' decorations (I know, what a Bah-Humbug!)

I did resist until today and now the cards are down and chopped up into next years gift-tags.

Whilst everyone else seemed to opening up iPads on Christmas Day, much beloved romantically bought me a 'kneePad'...hmpfh! But the romance didn't end there...oh no...I also got a patio / decking wire broom (I can feel your envy)...and...wait for it......a new garden Dibber!!!

Who said the romance is gone!!

So a New Year has arrived and here's my first offering.

I hope all your dreams for 2012 come true.
