    Sally - not much chance of showing it on here as I don't have digi camera and all that stuff. :( Will try and get to grips with phone camera if I can work it out and see if I can do it that way

    Rusty - beautiful cards.....:T
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    Rusty - That is gorgeous and really unusual. I imagine you will be finding glitter all weekend.

    I have just realised it is a friends birthday on Monday and not really having anything suitable for him I have printed off some pictures to do a decoupage of a program he adores. I don't think I will post it on here though as it is Family Guy characters dressed in army outfits and I would hate to think it could cause offense to anyone. I can take it with me to the caravan so cut out there so I only have to put it together on Sunday night/Monday.

    Sal, your boxes are beautiful as is your daughter's sock monkey :). Does he have a name? I think he looks like a Horace ;). I tried to comment on your blog but is won't let me, think Blogger has a problem :( I agree with you that the baskets could be a problem with bits coming out. I put my baskets in cello bags to give them so the contents stay where they should.
    :wave: If you want the rainbow, you've got to put up with the rain :wave:

    Hiya Rainmac

    Thankyou! I'll suggest that name to her as I don't think she thought of giving him a name! lol

    Oh I never thought of wrapping them in cellophane, but as it happens, I think she likes the little pyramid box that opens out, as she's just emailed me back, so hopefully she'll go for that one, as that was the easiest to make - lol

    I'm guessing I have 5 mins before I pass out, I've spent the whole day making 30 odd Easter baskets! Once I've filled them in the morning I'll post a picture.

    Sally those boxes are lovely! and that sock monkey your DD has done is fab!
    Rusty I love those cards! They've inspired me!

    Anyway Merry Christmas everyone hope you have a nice weekend!

    Oh dear Lyndach I think you need feet up and perhaps a glass of wine or whatever your vice is!
