Busy Busy Busy...

Hi,
Hope the summer is smiling on you still.  We are having a lovely day here...  With the children off school, I haven't found much time for crafting, but I have taken some photographs in the hope of more scrapbooking to come.  I really want to get into it again. 
 
I have been digging through my paper and although some of it is pretty old now, I have some lovely papers that are begging to end up on some lovely pages.  I am determined to get more organised... organization is the key to everything... and I am so disorganised.  I have already made my Christmas planner... no, honestly it's not too early to do this...  if I leave it too late, it never gets done properly and I don't get started early enough.  I used to laugh at a friend of mine who is always organised and ready really early, but by December she is always a lot more relaxed about the whole thing... unlike me!!!!!!!  So I am determined... Operation Christmas Card needs to be in full-swing!!!!!
 
Anyway, my inspiration for this sketch came from a blog that I can't find this morning... but I will edit it in later... see disorganised!!!  I took this photo of this beautiful horse and carriage as it trotted around a beach car park in St. Anne's one day when I went in to pick up some groceries.  Very odd but lovely to see. 
 


Hope you have a lovely day.  Thank you for reading.
Take care
Hugs

Mojo Monday ~ # 305

Hi,
It has been ages since I blogged....  not done a lot of crafting to be honest...  Life just gets too busy for crafting sometimes and I spend a lot of time wishing I didn't need to sleep... think of all that crafting time... 
Here is my take on the Mojo Monday sketch 305... made this for my Niece... love the sketch gives a chance to use some scraps from my scrap box...  The image and greeting came from some Kanban things my mum got me a while back and I found yesterday in with some magazines. 
 
 
 
I have been playing with my crochet hook... made this hat for my daughter.  I haven't made a hat before so it seemed to take me ages... then I made a blue one for my son that crocheted up really quickly.  Need to make me one now.  I really enjoyed it. 
 

We have just had a lovely week away in Devon...  I think the kids just spent most of the week in the two pools on the park... they loved it.  And when the kids are happy... I'm happy.   Now, of course, I am catching up with the washing.  As Steve has gone fishing today, I thought that's it I'm having some crafting time today... and blogging!!!!

I am hoping to get back into it a bit now, so hopefully I will be back tomorrow with some more things to show off.  Hope you have a lovely day.
Take care and thank you for stopping by.
Hugs
