Friday Sketchers #130

Hi,
Well, snowscenes and snowflakes seem to be appropriate, don't they? I hope you are keeping warm... can't believe some of the temperatures they are talking about on the news today!!!! All seems abit bizarre, doesn't it? I love Christmas, but I hate cold weather. I am so glad I haven't had anywhere to go today.

I am determined to make some cards... the kids are driving me up the wall! If I weren't trying to do something, they would just get on with what they are doing!!!

Anyway, this card was inspired by Friday Sketchers #130... what a lovely sketch to work with... am really please with it!

Will upload the other one later... for some unknown reason there was a slight blurr so I need to retake the photo!

Hugs

2 Sketches 4 You # 66

Hi,
Hope you are keeping warm... I seem to go cold every time I move out of this room... winter is well and truely with us...
Here is my take on Laura's Sketch 66 over at 2 Sketches 4 You. The image is one my mum gave me... she really is such a sweetheart. I am on a really tight budget with my crafting at the moment and she gets me some great stuff to help me keep going, like I don't have loads anyway...
Well, I haven't managed to make any today... I did this one yesterday... fingers crossed for more time to myself tomorrow evening. I am getting a little more Christmassy in my thinking, have made lots of lists today. I am a list person, it's how I actually get things done... by writing things down and making lists... my calender is one of my most important things. If it disappeared all hell would break loose here... it tells me what everyone else is doing and it tells me what I am doing... I have a great memory for things I don't need to remember, like song lyrics, useless information, etc. But anything that I need to remember... well, thats why I have the calender! Before the kids, I had a filofax... a lovely one that I doodled all over, with lots of pretty things...
Anyway, I'm shattered so I'm off to bed to read.

Friday Sketchers 129

Hi,
Here is my take on Friday Sketchers lovely sketch #129. I made this and it is so cute, I want it on my card tree!!!!!! ha! Anyway, the paper is from a small pack of Dovecraft paper that I picked up at a craft fair... I am really pleased with it... never sure of things I buy on impulse, I mean how many times do I do that and never use it!!!!!


I can't seem to get into the Christmas spirit yet... I keep thinking about all these things I need to sort out and instead I'm sitting their browsing all these beautiful craft sites and blogs!!!!
Hopefully I will get a couple of the others I made uploaded later... I actually have made 9 now... I think I need about 40 more!!!!! Argh!!!!!!!

Mojo Monday - 165

Hey!
I am sorry that I have just not had time to craft... I had a really tough college assignment that has been driving me nuts!!!!! and it has left me behind in my Christmas cards, behind in everything to be honest!!!!
Anyway, I made a card tonight... I really have to have a good session tomorrow... My inspiration came from a lovely sketch from Mojo Monday - 165, gorgeous... I totally enjoyed myself, it really made me feel better. I did get distracted and played with my cuttlebug for a little while, so hopefully this will inspire me to get on with my cards tomorrow.


I hope you are all better organised than I am, and life is treating you well. I am determined to devote at least a couple of days to my sorting out Christmas cards and shopping lists... one minute Christmas is months away, then you blink and find people are saying 'when shall we get together for exchanging gifts????' OMG!!!
I'm off to have a hot chocolate and then I'm going to bed... it's so cold tonight!!!! Winter is coming!!!!!
Night night!
Hugs
Kim
