12 cards of Christmas! Day 1

Well, this is a surprise for me eh? I have been making some cards whilst ive been snowed in, so thought id post them as my 12 cards of Christmas!

I must start off with a Crafters Companion one tho as i love these CD's but then i am pretty biased being on the design team, so to start with, here is Popcorn the bear from the Christmas Collection CD there will be more.... shock horror i hear you say! more than one posting in a month! yep, definitly, so keep popping back for more cards for my 12 cards of Christmas

See you soon

I do have an excuse!

 Hello all, yes i know i have been away for long time, and i do have a very good reason! My dad has been very poorly and been in hospital for over a week and then out for a week and back in.... very stressful, but fingers crossed he is ok now?

I have been working too, with this month's designs for Crafters Companion and the Downloads of the Month for December. You can download them from the website and i hope you enjoy using them as much as i did designing them.

While Dad was in hospital, it was his birthday, so i made this for him which did cheer him up, and we had a special day for him when he came out, although the staff on the ward were wonderful to him - not just on his birthday but for the entire stay, and i would like to say a huge thankyou to all of them!

He also had to have an operation on his birthday, so not really a special day for him, but he is a trooper and i love him to bits

MIA and Downloads of the Month...

Apologies for lack of posts, but i was so busy last month with work (been working in background for Crafters Companion) plus tons of other stuff, so really havent had alot of time for alot else!

Managed to get the Downloads of the Month done for November for Crafters Companion, so pop on over and download your FREE papers so you can...(if you havent already started!) make a start on your Christmas cards with this set i designed.

Hopefully if i get a chance to make any cards this month i will post them, but its all hectic and go go go!

Have also started my Braille grade 2 course which is taking up my time too, so all in all, i need a longer day and week to fit it all in!

Hope your all well? missing you all and will hopefully catch up with you all soon
