:T:TCongratulations to the winner of CP Tri fold challenge :T:T


Blimey Rainmac I think there is a sadistic streak to you lol I have just seen the next challenge you have set :eek: you really do like taking me out of my comfort zone, can't resist a challenge though

Gorgeous Christmas card, I love the reindeer, I am trying to resist buying Promarkers but I'm weak so who knows....:D

I have posted the photos of my CP prize over on my blog

I have been sort of using the swap to get us all trying different things, I saw the swing card on Splitcoaststampers and thought it looked gorgeous. Will go for something easier next month I promise x

Rainmac - beautiful christmas cards on your blog - you are a true inspiration. Also the package you sent flourgirl is gorgeous - I have had a go at making the tea bag & post it note holder - I cant believe I have been able to do them - they arent to difficult to make are they (even for me) Loving your x-stitch coaster - was the pattern off the internet by any chance . You still amaze me how you manage to do everything:A

Forgot to mention did any of you see on the Grabbit boards House of Fraser are selling reduced things from their craft department - cant remember all the details though.

Yay Rusty's joined the swap, how many times did you sign up, just the once??? Off to check x

Ali, the pattern wasn't from the web but I could send it to you if you want?

Just spent the last couple of hours printing off the holiday planning checklists on Organized Christmas to try and keep me on track with Xmas plans. I usually start ok and then get sidetracked and run round like a headless chicken in the last week and am too knackered to enjoy Xmas properly. Hopefully the millions of pieces of paper I have printed will keep me on track, just need to organise the papers into a folder, going to take some time I think

Rainmac -that would be lovely thank you. There's a good film for the kids starting at 11 on the new Disney XD channel - grab yourself a coffee and let them watch that while you get organised!!
