Tri-Fold Card

Last night I also had a go at making a tri-fold card... I enjoyed it, but was not very organised and took ages to make it... Thats the thing with crafting... you live and learn. It makes a nice special card, I think. I can't see me making too many of these - I'd be just about done next christmas... lovely idea though.
The weather here is still dreadful. Very depressing.

Keep smiling.

My Christmas Diary - A work in progress...

Hi,
here are the promised pictures of my Christmas Diary for 2009... I am still working on it... I am encouraging my children to pick embellishments to go into it too and it still needs more tags...

I have left room for me to add photos, and I will write on tags and journal squares...

Last year I didn't do enough preparation in my diary which is why I didn't get around to finishing it... I think you have to have very little to do to keep it up over such a busy time.

I have tried to vary the pages abit and have left pockets to add more tags etc if needed.

I have to say a huge Thank You to Ali Edwards for the inspiration for making the diary...

Hope you find some time to craft today.

Mojo Monday - 111

Hello!
This is my Christmas take on the Mojo Monday Sketch 111. Is it a sin to admit I used a peel off? I couldn't find any silver ribbon...



I love all the different colour schemes that make up christmas cards these days... There is so much choice these days in Christmas paper, it is hard to make a decision on what to buy. I'd love some new ones for my Christmas scrapbooking pages this year but I honestly can not make my mind up which I like the best... does anyone else have this problem? I just keep browsing and browsing!!!!! And then I find another new one....

I am hoping for a crafting evening tonight... I still have this dreadful cold... I do feel a bit better, but my head is killing me... the painkillers I have taken haven't touched it this morning. I am one of these people who try to ignore it and hope it goes away... not happening today though!

Hope you find time to craft today...

2S4U - 38

Hi,
Here is my take on Sketches 4 U -38.
The sample on the blog are lovely as usual and I love the sketch.

I haven't made cards over half term... before half term I managed to start my Christmas Diary... When I have done some more to it I will take some pictures. Unfortunately, I didn't quite finish last years, and ended up sticking photo's on the days that I didn't get to write in... I am hoping this year as I am only leaving small spaces to right, some pockets and small spaces for photos so that I don't have to spend so much time on it, this way I may finish it!
Anyway, having made a proper list of who I need to make cards for now... I need to get the rest made!
Hope you find time to craft.... oh, and that the weather is better where ever you are... it's dreadful here today.
