I've been busy trying to get organised as we've visitors coming tomorrow for a few days stay.
So it's been a rush around doing shopping, house cleaning and the usual washing and ironing routine - plus getting ready for Friday's new Daring Cardmakers challenge as who knows what time I'll have to play with paper while my rellies are here. If you've not already shown us your card for the Friends theme, please give it a try, we'd love to see your work.
Must have been something in the air yesterday because I even managed to get another couple of Christmas cards made - the first for a couple of weeks - I'm really not doing well with these, reminder to self; must try harder.
I bought a couple of PaperMania Christmas paper packs (8x8, 100 sheets each) a week or so ago. The paper isn't as heavy as I like, but it's fine for Christmas cards and the colours and designs are nice. I used a couple on these cards. The bauble is a Bosskutz die, edged with silver krylon and topped with some of that wonderful Glossy Accents. I put a swirl of glitter on first for one of them but forgot that bit on the other! The silvery stuff was in a mixed pack of similar stuff - it's really pretty with a stitched swirl plus little dots of glitter.
No way will I get another scrapbook page done now, so that'll be another one to put off till next week.
Lovely sunny day here today - chilly but very bright. Next boring housey task - put the bins out. Gosh it's just a never ending whirr of excitement around here isn't it?
Any of you UK readers who know where I can get small plain silver cross charms (for Christening cards etc) or that thick handmade paper that usually comes in big sheets (wrapping paper sized) in white, please give me a shout!

Love the Xmas cards - I have those Papermania packs - like you say a bit thin but I actually like the designs and they work out something ridiculous like 6p a sheet! I actually used the star ones for a 21st Birthday card :-)
Have a fun time with your visitors :-)
