Another seven cards done... still not half way there yet!!  That is eleven cards made today so far... thank goodness for the Christmas Doodle eKit that is all I can say!

I have enjoyed painting these in.. I have used watercolours in some, twinkling H20 with some and pencil with others...

So much fun.. but I have to do the housework now.. that has been on hold all day!

Leave me a comment if you like.. always nice to know people have seen them.

Card Order!!!!

Well I just love making cards... and  have just landed a little order of 18 individual Christmas cards and 10 personalised cards!


So here are a few that I have done so far.  For the individual ones.... I am not going to charge her as much so have made them a little more simple... but you have to agree that the images are wonderful!  


They are from http://www.making-handmade-cards.com.. they have some wonderful digi packs you can buy.  The trees and stockings in these cards if from the Christmas Doodle eKit.







 

Very Untidy Desk!!! Shocking





How shocking is this!... see this is what happens when you get carried away crafting!

I have recently started a little part-time card editing job for a fab company online... I am loving it and of course making every card that I edit... well one has to to make sure that all the measurements etc are right!


But after seeing how tidy some people's desks are... I think I need to tidy up!
