It's Christmas Eve Have a Happy One!!!

I know I've been a bad blogger but this time of year there are soo many other things to be getting on with that writing posts has to go on the back burner. I am sure there are many of you out there with the same predicament.

This stuff slowed me down, love to look at it but boy am I rubbish at walking about in it. I wasn't born with the daredevil gene in me, that truly went to my sister!

However to stop me feeling really bad I have snapped a few piccies of my decorations and cards to share in the spirit of Christmas.

After watching Kirsty's Homemade Home I had to give the salt dough a try!

It was so much fun.

I decoupaged them using some lovely serviettes I got from Waitrose.

The fireplace.

This jolly Santa was rescued from my local Charity Shop, he is soo squishy and soft.

My angel that sits on my tree. She was made by my Aunt in America completely from scratch, her body is porcelain and all handpainted.


Why is it soo difficult to photograph your tree! It looks really pretty in the flesh, honest!

Some sugared fruit, which after doing realised I was meant to whisk the egg whites slightly, oops!

A selection of cards, these ones were made using my new stamps from Martha Stewart.

More Martha Stewart using red and green.

Had fun cutting up my paper stash to make this bunch, my snowmen look a bit fat in the face!

More paper cutting.

The gingerbread stamps are definitely my favourite, as are the inks by Whispers.

And this was my favourite paper cutting one.

My fiance's card, normally struggle with men but this came easy.

Wowee!! That was a long one ;o). I do hope you have not nodded off by now! Thanks for popping by at this mad time of year and here's to the most fabulous Christmas and Happy New Year for us all!!

See you in the next decade!!! xxxxxxxxxxx
