As I sit here typing this it's snowing. Our village always looks so pretty when covered in snow and I always have to wander round and take photos.............not today though I'm staying indoors as long as possible.LOL
Went to two crops over the weekend. Saturday I went to the Create and Crop and managed 4 layouts(I'll have to learn how to upload them on here) and yesterday I went to the Your Creations crop day at Henley nr Ipswich. I was chuffed to bits as I actually won a raffle prize.My tickets were first out the hat and I chose a Martha Stewart PATP set kindly donated by Vanessa at Papermaze.
I've also had some other creative good luck . I entered Cardmaking and Papercrafts mag Cardmaker of the Year comp and came 3rd in two sections, Cosmo Cricket(prize has arrived for this lots of CC goodies) and the Stampin Up section, still waiting on that prize. So all in all had a good couple of weeks..................should of bought a lottery ticket.LOL
Well Christmas is looming fast.............only bought stocking filler pressies for the kids so far. We're off to Lakeside sometime in the next fortnight, to do the bulk of the shopping.........still waiting on families christmas lists. Andy and I are buying a new Blu-ray DVD player with surround sound between us as there's nothing we really need. I think the only crafty thing I've asked for this year is a 12x12 deep frame box.
I'm still debating on buying the new Spellbinders Grand Calibur of Sizzix Big Shot Pro..........probably end up with the Calibur, it's alot cheaper and would get more use.........think I've answered my own question there.
My craft room is now complete with the Ikea expedit storage system.................I now have storage around all walls.............just need to sort my stash out to a workable system. I'm getting there slowly.
The Bramford Christmas crop is nearly upon us, Saturday 11th December. I've been sorting out the prizes up for grabs, lots of lovely goodies.
Well the hoovering awaits so I'd best go get that done.
Take care.
Janina
