Busy, busy, work, work busy.....

Hi folks it's been a while since my last post but that's because my feet haven't touched the ground lately!
Rushed off our feet at work with one of the team down with back pain (get better soon Debbie), lots going on in the family, what with anniversaries and big birthdays, and the holiday is just a bit of a blur now.


Thanks to Kate's class at Papercrafts on Tuesday the first festive card is in the bag. Maybe this will kick start me, although with a good friend about to turn 40 I am expecting one or two orders for special cards from work mates.


So far I have managed to avoid the Christmas 'thing', but with the shops now displaying festive goods and every crafting email trying to sell me 'Joy' and 'Peace to all' I can no longer hide my head in the sand.   I have promised myself that I will start my Christmas cards in the October holidays (as well as finishing the major re landscaping of the front garden, and having a  few days away.) All in two weeks?

Since the end of August our family has celebrated a silver wedding anniversary, a 50th birthday and are about to have an 80th birthday celebration. Here are some of the cards and tags I made for them.


This always makes me smile 'Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, give him a rod and you won't see him for a week!' How true.

My attempt at a Timmy Tag using what I had in my stash.Not overly fancy but the recipient was delighted with it.

Lots more to come, but hubby is champin' at the bit to use the computer so in the words of Bugs 'That's all folks' see you soon.
