Have a long way to go!


Christmas card No.2


Ho Ho Ho, Christmas mode today, not sure where that's come from unless the White on White got me thinking of Snow, brrrrrrrrrr, what a thought. Seem to be having an embossing of a time just lately, made a couple more then going to put them away for awhile, waiting for some new stamps and inks to arrive so I can go all inky for a change. Oh and off to the Papeterie at Dyce tomorrow to see Barbara Gray from Clarity Stamps. Really looking forward to getting some tips and seeing her fab creations. Will go in search of my piggy bank later and see if there's any pennies in it for a wee spend lol! 

Okay, seem to have a gremlin highlighting my post in white. Haven't touched anything  it just appeared and can't get rid of it. Happened the other day too.  Don't seem to see a no highlight box so gone for blue at the mo.

Gorgeous Carol, love the white on white with a touch of red. Very elegant.

Wish I could go to the Papeterie tomorrow but I've got work in the afternoon. Today would have been better - my day off. We managed to get to Oldmeldrum at last. Nice shop and we managed to get some bits and pieces. Really handy for us at less than half an hour drive.

Enjoy your day out tomorrow.

Hello Carol,

So far so good visiting everybody using my new word recognition system, taking a bit of getting used to and a few boo-boos with words, but on the whole I'm well impressed.

Another really great card the white on white looks fabulous, always terrifies me and I steer clear, but looking yours I really should give it a go.

Hope you have a lovely weekend, dare we hope for some sun shine?
